Recording of data

The amoimt of time available for the recording of data in incident reporting systems is limited, and hence the information collected is usually confined to short descriptions of the event, its actual and potential consequences and... 

Sampling points for analysis should be planned in order to give the whole record of analysis, e.g. in oil production from the well via processing facilities to the export facilities. Correlation with plant parameters such as temperatures, pressures, flow rates and, stream compositions can provide valuable records. Emphasis on chemical analysis should be incorporated in the design of process plant. Automatic analysis systems especially those using ion-sensitive electrodes with recording of data are recommended. 

Step 1. The (x, y) records of data are employed to build the / mapping. 

Many instruments utilize a double beam principle in that radiation absorbed or emitted by the sample is automatically compared with that associated with a blank or standard. This facilitates the recording of data and corrects for matrix effects and instrumental noise and drift. Instrumentation for the generation of radiation is varied and often peculiar to one particular technique. It will be discussed separately in the relevant sections. Components (b) and (c), however, are broadly similar for most techniques and will be discussed more fully below. 

Combinatorial chemistry and HT E are powerful tools in the hands of a scient ist, as they are a source for meaningful consistent records of data that would be hard to obtain via conventional methods within a decent timeframe. This blessing of fast data acquisition can turn into a curse if the experimentalist does not take precautions to carefully plan the experiments ahead and the means of handling the data and analyzing them afterwards. The two essential elements that ensure a successful execution of ambitious projects on a rational and efficient basis are, therefore, tools that enable the scientist to carefully plan experiments and get the most out of the minimum number of experiments in combination with the possibility of fast and reliable data retrieval from databases. Therefore, experimental planning and data management are complementary skillsets for the pre- and post experimental stages. 

The conduct of explanatory trials will include close monitoring of the study in an attempt to ensure strict adherence to the protocol. There is likely to be exhaustive recording of data. In contrast, the conduct of pragmatic trials will tend to mirror real life. There will be attempts to minimise data recording, but there is hkely to be exhaustive follow-up of all patients. 

The edge of the cold-stream should be positioned approximately 1-2 cm from the presumptive position of the crystal. This is a much larger distance than that used during recording of data and is meant to provide an ample work space. 

The study director is not required to observe every data collection event, but should assure that data are collected as specified by the protocol and the standard operating procedures (SOPs) and that data collection includes the accurate recording of unanticipated responses of the test system. The study director should also review data periodically, or assure that such review occurs, to promote the accurate recording of data and to assure that data are technically correct.

We recommend that systematic, centralized recording of data on chemical mutagens be maintained and specifically recommend that there be a regular system for recording negative data and making them available. 

The collection, evaluation and recording of data and information from the market place must be done systematically, even though a lot of it may well have been obtained in a random manner. This information will be gathered typically from the following sources. 

Systematic errors in the measurement process (improper calibration, improper use of equipment, erroneous recording of data, etc.), and... 

Distance The distance between cores should NOT exceed the core diameter. It is easier for the microscopist to follow the rows and columns if he/she can lead from one core to another. If the distance between cores is large, it difficult to follow the chain of cores and may result in skipping of lanes and false recording of data when performing manual interpretation. 

A record of data is essential. It shows you were working. 

Record of data is essential, it indicates you have been doing something. 

The aim of a backup log is to provide a written record of data backup, the location of duplicate copies of the system (operating system and application software programs), and the data held on the computer. The backup schedule for the disks can vary. In a larger system, the operating system and applications software will be separated from the data that are stored on separate disks. The data change on a fast timescale that reflects the progress of the samples through the laboratory and... 

Finally, include any concluding remarks about the reaction 3.3 Keeping records of data... 

In the case of an analysis that requires a protocol to be developed, it is necessary to include the preparation of standards and the recording of data relating to these standards (approximately half a day) and a subsequent manual check of a few analysis points on the sample. 

The method by which reaction rates are measured depends on whether the reaction of interest is fast or slow. A reaction is generally regarded as fast if it proceeds to 50% of completion in 10 s or less. Analytical methods based on fast reactions generally require special equipment that permits rapid mixing of reagents and fast recording of data, as discussed in Feature 29-2.
