In the context of pharmacokinetics ( what the body does to a drug ), the distribution coefficient has a strong influence on ADME properties ( Absorption, Distribution, Metabolism, and Excretion ) of the drug.

NRC is being replaced by the Sound Absorption Average ( SAA ), which is described in the current ASTM C423-09a.

The rate at which radiation is absorbed by the human body is measured by the Specific Absorption Rate ( SAR ), and its maximum levels for modern handsets have been set by governmental regulating agencies in many countries.

He wrote theses on Hong Kong society, including The Administrative Absorption of Politics in Hong Kong ( 1975 ), Social Life and Development in Hong Kong ( 1985 ), The Special Character of Hong Kong ’ s Polity and its Democratic Prospects ( 1987 ), One Country, Two Systems: An Idea on Trial ( 1995 ), and Hong Kong: A City with the Most Traits of Modernity in Chinese Societies ( 2000 ).

* Absorption costing, or total absorption costing, a method for appraising or valuing a firm's total inventory by including all the manufacturing costs incurred to produce those goods

# Absorption: oxygen, nitrogen and carbon dioxide can diffuse into the epidermis in small amounts ; some animals use their skin as their sole respiration organ ( in humans, the cells comprising the outermost 0. 25 – 0. 40 mm of the skin are " almost exclusively supplied by external oxygen ", although the " contribution to total respiration is negligible ")

Absorption from these foods is enhanced if eaten with fats, as carotenes are fat soluble, and if the food is cooked for a few minutes until the plant cell wall splits and the colour is released into any liquid.

Absorption of a poison is necessary for systemic poisoning.

SCIAMACHY ( SCanning Imaging Absorption spectroMeter for Atmospheric CHartographY ) compares light coming from the sun to light reflected by the Earth, which provides information on the atmosphere through which the Earth-reflected light has passed.

Absorption lines for air, under indirect illumination, with the direct light source not visible, so that the gas is not directly between source and detector.

Absorption lines are produced even during reflection from an illuminated cold gas, as after reflection there is still the opportunity for a selective absorption ( and re-scatter ) between the point of reflection and the detector.

In June 1968 the Ministry for Absorption was created, taking over some aspects of immigration from WZO / JA.

The Jewish Agency Absorption Centre, the main facility for handling olim arriving in Israel, is also located in Lod.

Fluorescent Treponemal Antibody Absorption Test is the most specific test for syphilis.

Absorption lines are often depicted as infinitesimally thin lines, i. e., delta functions, but observed lines always have a shape that is determined by the instrument used for the observation, the material absorbing the radiation and the physical environment of that material.

Absorption spectroscopy has been particularly important for understanding interstellar clouds and determining that some of them contain molecules.

Absorption lines are produced even during reflection from an illuminated cold gas, since after reflection there is still the opportunity for a selective absorption ( and re-scatter ) between the point of reflection and the detector.

Absorbed by Clan Smoke Jaguar for attempting to use their words of Nicholas Kerensky to sidestep a Grand Council ruling that ran against them and to justify their actions and defend actions considered by their fellow Clans to be " un-clanlike " Being then deemed unfit to rule, by the Grand Council, the Council called a Trial of Absorption.

Opioids requiring Cytochrome P-450 activation ( e. g. codeine, dihydrocodeine ) should perhaps be used with an agent not chemically related to the SSRIs ; conversely, they may impact parts of the Liberation, Absorption, Distribution, Metabolism & Elimination profile for morphine, hydromorphone, oxymorphone & c the other way.

Maximum wavelengths of absorption (≈ excitation ) and emission ( for example, Absorption / Emission = 485 nm / 517 nm ) are the typical terms used to refer to a given fluorophore, but the whole spectrum may be important to consider.

Absorption photometers for work in aqueous solution work in the ultraviolet and visible ranges, from wavelength around 240 nm up to 750 nm.

Absorption refers both to the sound that transmits through and the energy that is dissipated by a material.

This is the Absorption Spectrum of both the Chlorophyll a and the Chlorophyll b pigments.

X-ray Absorption Spectroscopy ( XAS ) includes both Extended X-Ray Absorption Fine Structure ( EXAFS ) and X-ray Absorption Near Edge Structure ( XANES ).
