Prior use

Prior use. For the first installation of a specific measurement device at a site, training of maintenance personnel and purchases of spare parts might be necessaiy. 

The critical components should be listed and checked to see that prior usage is within the range of experience. It should be determined if the impellers have been stage tested and whether this performance has been reflected in actual field experience. Prior use history of the blading geometry being proposed should be reviewed. This should include the...

For reasons that are not yet clear, skeletal muscle transverse (T)-tubule membranes contain 50-100-fold more high affinity DHP receptors than any other source yet identified [43,45]. Transverse tubule membranes contain 30-70 pmol/mg protein of DHP receptors that bind [ H]PN 200-100 with a of 0.1-0.2nM. The strategy utilized for the purification of L-type channels was similar to that used for the purification of other high affinity ligand binding proteins, and its success was predicted from the prior use of such an approach for the purification of other ion channels [54,55]. Thus the L-type channels were purified as high affinity DHP receptors, with the anticipation that the purified component(s) would constitute functional Ca channels. 

Studies were performed in the squirrel monkey (Saimiri sciureus). This primate species was selected because of its size, availability, and prior use in neurotoxicity studies (Langston et al. 1984). Initial dose-response determinations were carried out using the following doses of MDMA ... 

During the brief interview at Central Booking, we asked each arrestee several questions about his prior use of drugs and his treatment needs. Table 4 presents these results. 

Risk factors for developing an infection caused by a resistant pathogen generally are related to the prior use of antibiotics, insertion of catheters or other invasive devices, and hospitalization in a unit contaminated/colonized with resistant organisms. The following is a more complete list of factors influencing infection from a resistant organism ... 

As previously mentioned, HT is considered to increase risk for invasive breast cancer. The ability of raloxifene to reduce breast cancer risk was evaluted after MORE (Lippman 2001 Johnell et al. 2004) and has been evaluated recently with a consideration of all the breast cancer cases diagnosed after MORE + CORE (Purdie et al. 2004). Previous HT use was reported by 2235 women and no previous HT use by 5447 women. In these women, the overall reduction in invasive breast cancer incidence for the 8 years of MORE plus CORE was 66% (HR = 0.34 95% Cl = 0.22-0.50). In the placebo group the incidence of invasive breast cancer was 2.7% in those with prior HT use compared to 2.1% in those with no prior use (p = 0.279). In women with a history of prior HT use, raloxifene significantly reduced invasive breast cancer incidence by 71% (HR = 0.29 95% Cl = 0.14-0.59) compared to placebo. In women with no prior exposure to HT, a 64% reduction in incidence of invasive breast cancer was found in those receiving raloxifeneX (HR = 0.36 95% Cl = 0.22-0.59). The magnitude of risk reduction with raloxifene did not differ irrespective of the previous exposure to HT (interaction p = 0.618). 

Polystyrene s chief weakness is its image. There is a continuing effort to replace it with paper products. The prior use of CFCs as blowing agents in its foam products has contributed to this negative image. 

Hypersensitivity reactions Rarely, severe allergic reactions and anaphylaxis have occurred. Most of these occur within several hours after readministration following prior use of the drug. 

Patients without prior use - The initial dose should be lower, with subsequent dosing adjusted based on individual response. Limiting the total dose injected into the sternocleidomastoid muscles to 100 units or less may decrease the occurrence of dysphagia. 

Section 8 outlines the following criteria for selection of measurement devices measurement span, performance, reliability, materials of construction, prior use, potential for releasing process materials to the environment, electrical classification, physical access, invasive or noninvasive, and life-cycle cost. 

Broad spectrum therapy is started on an empirical basis. Intra-abdominal infections can be treated by ampicillin (or amoxycillin) or clindamycin combined with aminoglycosides, penicillin-beta-lacta-mase inhibitors such as amoxycillin-clavulanic acid or a second or third generation cephalosporin combined with metronidazole are good alternatives. In patients with impaired immunity and/or prior use of antibiotics, i.e. when it is reasonable to expect resistant pathogens, a broad spectrum penicillin plus beta-lactamase inhibitor or a carbapenem can be used empirically in monotherapy. In septic patients, the rapidly bactericidal action of aminoglycosides is useful. Aminoglycosides should preferentially not be given for more than 3-5 days. 

The GPC columns with bubbles or clefts within the bed have to be emptied and packed again prior use. 

The prior use of kerosene or other solvents in PCB spill cleanup activities may interact with the substrate and increase the migration of PCBs into the contaminated media making removal more difficult. Painted surfaces should be patch tested prior to application as paint softening or discoloration may occur. 

Early development of polymers in injectable drug delivery primarily involved PLA and poly(lactic-co-glycolic) acid (PLGA) due to the prior use of these polymers in biomedical applications as sutures. Besides the safe and biocompatible nature of these polymers, their ease of availability made them ideal first candidates for screening parenteral CR formulations. Some of the early biodegradable polymer-based products for injectable sustained release used these polymers. However because... 

Finally, dry the modified electrodes for 22 h at 4°C and rinse with water prior use. 

Two distinct types of violations are commonly seen for pesticide residues in foods. One type involves detection of a residue of a pesticide at a level that exceeds the established tolerance for that commodity. The other type involves the case where a residue of a pesticide, at any quantifiable level, is detected on a commodity for which a tolerance has not been established. This type of violative residue may result from application of the pesticide to the wrong commodity, drift of a pesticide from an adjacent field, or uptake from soil contaminated from a prior use of the pesticide on a different commodity. For domestic samples in 1999, 8 of 26 (31 percent) violations involved residues detected in excess of tolerances while the rest (18 of 26, 69 percent) involved residues detected on commodities for which no tolerances were established. Violative imported...
