The thermal parameters for comfort should be relatively uniform both spatially and temporally. Variations in heat flow from the body make the physiological temperature regulation more difficult. Nonuniform thermal conditions can lead to nonuniform skin temperatures. The active elements of the regulatory system may need to make more adjustments and work harder in order to keep thermal skin and body temperatures stable. To avoid discomfort from environmental nonuniformities, the temperature difference between feet and head should be less than about 3 °C (Fig. 5.9) and the mean surface temperature or radiant difference from one side of the body to the other should not he greater then about 10 °C. 

A state of chronic deviation of a regulatory system from its normal (homeostatic) operating level is defined as an allostatic state. In the context of drug addiction this term has been introduced by George Koob and Michel Le Moal and represents a chronic deviation of reward set point by dysregulation of reward circuits and brain stress systems that provide a negative motivational state that drives addictive behavior. 

Most of these enzymes have steroids or fatty acids as their substrates (Table 1). Many P450s in endogenous biotransformation pathways are characterized by usually very narrow substrate and product specificity and by tight regulatory systems, especially those involved in steroid hormone biosynthesis.

However, the total regulatory system is not so simple and linear. In skinned muscle preparations especially, it can be shown that there are calcium stores which cannot be released by IP3 but which are released by elevated levels of calcium itself That is, by the mechanism of calcium induced calcium release (CICR). The CICR... 

From a physiological point of view, uptake systems make sense to a cell only when their substrates are both available in the medium and useful to the cell. As a matter of fact, the expression of the permease structural genes and the activity of the corresponding permeases are controlled and modulated by different types of regulatory systems. 

Only two of the 10 countries have devised specific measures for the benefit of consumers. The Australian dmg regulatory system also provides for the inclusion of consumer group representatives on various drug regulatory committees. The appeals system in the Netherlands is not limited to industry, but is also open to consumers. 

Post-marketing surveillance of product quality is carried out by means of a QC system. The quality of products available on the market is therefore an important indication of the effectiveness (or otherwise) of the dmg regulatory system.

In the HPLC method for the regulatory system of the CDFA, the MDCs are O.lmgkg" for each of bifenox, nitrofen and oxyfluorfen. In the determination of acifluorfen residues in soybeans using PLE and CL, the recovery of acifluorfen fortified with 0.1 mgkg was between 70 and 72%. ... 

The text will be based on an interpretation of the legislative requirements and will include consideration of many of the available guidance documents. In addition, consideration has also been taken of published EPARs and the author s own experience of the European regulatory system (which extends over some 25 years). In case of doubt or disagreement, readers are referred to the original texts of the legislation, notes for guidance, and EPARs. 

The Expert Report is a particular requirement of the European pharmaceutical regulatory system. It is intended that the Expert Report submitted by the applicant should include an accurate summary of the supporting evidence for the application and that it should also include a critical discussion of that information. Expert reports were originally required when a requirement for an Assessment Report was imposed on the member states the intention was that the Expert Report should form the basis for that Assessment Report.

Following an EAL approach, traditionally regulatory systems originate from the presence of market failure in our specific case, the environment appears as a "public good" that may not be appropriated and has no market price the damage to the environment is a case of "externality," in that it is fully or partly a social cost that is not internalized into the accounts of the parties causing it.2 So the comparison of different instruments can consider how they may play a role in correcting malfunction and subsequent inefficiencies [7].
