The probability of Raman scattering is quite small. This normally requires the use of intense laser sources and concentrated samples. A high-resolution double or triple monochromator is used to separate the Raman lines from the intense Raleigh line. 

Once the protein is recovered from its producer source and concentrated it must be purified to homogeneity. In other words, all contaminant proteins and other potential contaminants of potential medical significance (discussed in Chapter 7) must be removed. Purification is generally achieved by column chromatography. 

Samples gathered and solutions prepared by laboratory personnel must be properly labeled at the time of sampling or preparation. In addition, a complete record of the sampling or preparation should be maintained. Sound quality assurance practices include a notebook record where one can find the source and concentration of the material used, the identity and concentration of the standard being prepared, the name of the analyst who prepared it, the specific procedure used, the date it was sampled or prepared, and the expiration date for any stored solutions. The reagent label should have a clear connection to the notebook record. A good label includes an ID number that matches the notebook record, the name of the material and its concentration, the date, the name of the analyst, and the expiration date.

For excellent summaries of general exposure and health effects data for 243 substances, see the California Air Resources Board report (1997b). Each summary describes the physical properties, sources, and concentrations both outdoors and indoors, atmospheric persistence, health effects, and other risk assessment information. 

Also important, besides the variables of the equation, are temperature of the solution, wavelength of the light source, and concentration of the solution. The standard light source used to measure optical rotation has been the bright yellow D lines of the sodium spectrum, but the single mercury line, X = 5461 A, is now used frequently for precision measurements. Generally, the specific rotation is reported at 20 °C and expressed as ...

Published studies on extrusion formation/retention of flavor are rather limited (2J3). None have reported the effects of protein sources and concentrations on flavor compound formation in extrudates, the major objective of this study.

Unfortunately as Kellogg et al., Robinson and Robbins, Junge, and Eriksson have all pointed out, most of the atmospheric measurements have been made in polluted areas of the United States and Europe, so not much is known about normal background concentrations of sulfur compounds and their global distribution. Therefore the atmospheric cycle is somewhat speculative, as are also estimates of individual sinks, sources, and concentrations. 

In a series of articles, Robinson and Robbins (214-216) have reviewed the sinks, sources, and concentrations of tropospheric nitrogen compounds, while a survey of the early literature is provided by Junge (128). 

While the radical number densities in the troposphere are quite small, these species are highly reactive and very important to the photochemistry. A large body of atmospheric data concerning sinks, sources, and concentrations of CH, H2C=0, CO, H2, HNOj, and others are explained by their presence, as has been shown in Sections IV.A and IV.B and will be discussed in Sections IV.E,...

Amagase et al. (1996) demonstrated that the benefits of rosemary in the diet of rats exposed to DMBA are dependent on the source and concentration of dietary lipids. 1% rosemary but not 0.5% rosemary powder reduced the DMBA-induced DNA adduct in a diet containing 5% com oil, whereas 0.5% rosemary powder was effective in a 20% com oil diet. Further, the effect of rosemary was lower when the dietary lipid consisted of 5% com oil and 15% coconut oil. 

To obtain the maximum rate of renin activity, saturating amounts of the renin substrate, angiotensinogen, should be present in the reaction system. In most procedures, however, the only substrate provided is that present in the test plasma, and its concentration can be quite variable. According to some investigators, PRA is best estimated when the plasma specimen is incubated with an excess of exogenous renin substrate prepared from nephrectomized human subjects, oxen, or sheep. This type of assay is usually known as a plasma renin concentration assay rather than PRA assay. Unfortunately the measured renin depends on the source and concentration of the renin substrate. Synthetic peptides that resemble the M-terminal portion of angiotensinogen have also been used as renin substrates, but these substances can be hydrolyzed by nonspecific plasma proteases.

The quality and quantity of chitosan extracted from the fungal mycelia (Tables 4 and 5) depend on the fungal strain Absidia, Gongronells, Rhizopus, etc. fermentation type SSF and SMF (batch fermentation, fed batch fermentation and continuous fermentation) fermentation medium composition carbon source and concentration, nitrogen source and concentration, and metal ions and their concentration pH of the fermentation medium fermentation conditions inoculum size, harvesting time, fermentation temperature, inlet air flow rate and chitosan extraction procedure [5, 7, 8, 50, 54, 58, 61]. Chitosans obtained from different species of fungi have been tested in various applications (Table 6).
