Timing reference curves

The intensities of absorption change proportions between sample and reference curves. The fact that the transmission-wave-length curve of dyed parathion is composite precludes the possibility of interpreting these observations at the present time. 

Tb = the breakthrough time referring to Fig. 26, this is defined as the intercept on the dimensionless time axis of the tangent to the curve at the point of inflexion.

Measurements of alkali solubles in these coal samples—conventionally accepted as indices of humic acid concentrations—were initially performed by using Kreulen s method (7). However, even when the most stringent precautions were taken to exclude air, this method yielded markedly time-dependent results (presumably owing to oxidation of the coal by the relatively strong alkali solution), and a more satisfactory colorimetric technique (by J. F. Fryer) was therefore employed. This entailed extracting the coal sample with 0.1 N aqueous sodium hydroxide for 16-20 hours in an inert atmosphere and subsequent photoelectric scanning of the extract solutions. Actual humic acid concentrations were then obtained from specially constructed reference curves which related optical density (at an appropriate wavelength) to humic acid contents. The inherent error in this determination is estimated at less than 10%. 

Figure 6 shows a chromatogram for linear elution chromatography. The amount of probe injected is set to the amount corresponds to the limit of sensitivity of the detector. The retention time, tR, is the time that the average molecule of probe takes to travel the length of column. And the time is measured to be the midpoint of the symmetrical curve for nonpolar probes and to be a position at which the total area of the asymmetrical curve for polar probes is divided into equal areas. The time, to, is the zero retention time reference measured with a non adsorbing probe such as methane simply to pass through the column space from inlet to out let.

The object is to determine the amount of allergen particles that, when made to react with a i dilution of the appropriate reference serum pool, produces a count rate in the particle RAST equal to that produced by 20 U/ml in the IgE reference curve. Perform total IgE and particle RAST assays at the same time it is usually sufficient to use doubling dilutions of allergen particles ranging fromi (i.e., undiluted) to in a volume of 50 /nl the more potent the allergen, the fewer particles will be required. 

Figure 9.11 Reduced plots of the retardation spectra of the more concentrated solutions of polystyrene in tri-m-tolyl phosphate represented in Figure 9.9. The superposition was carried out in the neighborhood of the (short time) maximum. The reference curve corresponds to polystyrene at 100°C. (From Ref. 9.)...

Establishing clinical bioequivalence to a reference delivery method, usually a needle and syringe or an autoinjector or pen injector is the customary method of demonstrating that these conditions have been successfully met. This requires that the maximum blood plasma concentration of the drug (Cmax) and the total area under the time-concentration curve (AUC), as well as their associated confidence intervals, adequately approximate a reference product. The standard criteria to establish bioequivalence are 70-143% for Cmax and 80-125% for AUC (Fig. 3 for an example of a bioequivalent needle-free delivery).

Post enhancement cutoff. This refers to the tail portion of the time-density curve, which may slope upwards towards a second peak value if recirculation effects are present. When such upward sloping at the tail of the TDC is noted, the data should be truncated to avoid including the recirculation of contrast. The perfusion analysis program will subsequently ignore data from slices beyond the cutoff. 

Curve 5 is the laser pulse, detected through ND filters without the bloeking filters. The laser pulse was recorded to get a time reference as to where the fluores-cenee is to be expeeted. Please note that the recorded laser pulse is not the effective profile of the instrument response function (IRF). The two-photon effeet is proportional to the square of the power, therefore the two-photon IRF is different from the one-photon IRF.
