Chopra states topical silver is regaining popularity in the management of open wounds, “ due largely to the spread of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus and the resultant reduction in first-line antibiotic prescribing ”, and “ ome silver-based dressings appear to provide an effective alternative to antibiotics in the management of wound infection .” Silver has proven broad-spectrum antimicrobial activity that includes antibiotic-resistant bacteria, with minimal toxicity toward mammalian cells at low concentrations, and has a less likely tendency than antibiotics to induce resistance due to its activity at multiple bacterial target sites.

On his last visit, in 1982, he noted that the desert winds and resultant movement of the dune system were covering the site: " instead of two thirds of the crater rim ( visible as before 1966, 16 years earlier ), less than a quarter of it showed.

The resultant bite forces calculated for Stegosaurus were 140. 1 N ( Newton ), 183. 7 N, and 275 N ( for anterior, middle and posterior teeth, respectively ), which means that its bite force was less than half that of a Labrador retriever.

The most common causes of transudative pleural effusions in the United States are left ventricular failure, and cirrhosis ( causing hepatic hydrothorax ), nephrotic syndrome leading to increased loss of albumin and resultant hypoalbuminemia and thus reducing colloid osmotic pressure is another less common cause.

Helper phage are usually engineered to package less efficiently than the phagemid so that the resultant phage particles contain predominantly phagemid DNA.

As the motor speeds up, the internally generated voltage rises, the resultant EMF falls, less current passes through the motor and the torque drops.

The resultant A4, which debuted at the 1979 British Grand Prix, employed the same Cosworth / Hewland running gear and the suspension was similar to the A2, but the bodywork was less bulky, with better sidepods for improved airflow.

The vibrating microtome operates by cutting using a vibrating blade, allowing the resultant cut to be made with less pressure than would be required for a stationary blade.

The resultant increase in water temperature is regulated to less than 1 ° C in summer months, and to 2 ° C the rest of the year.

The presumed goal of these off-stage aliens appears to be nothing less than the complete replacement of Earth's entire ecology and the resultant extinction of all native life, at which time they can claim the planet without a single shot needing to be fired.

The resultant product may be less polar, thus more volatile, allowing analysis by gas chromatography.

Pankhurst explains that the needs of the imperial court and army -- who numbered in the thousands -- for firewood and food was so burdensome that, " it could not remain in any one locality for more than four months, nor return to the same place in less than 10 years due to the resultant shortage of food ", which prevented the growth of any capital city in this period.

Basically, adding values beyond this range will cause the resultant sequence number to " wrap ", and ( often ) result in a number that is considered " less than " the original sequence number!

Centrifugal pumps are particularly vulnerable especially when pumping heated solution near the vapor pressure, whereas positive displacement pumps are less affected by cavitation, as they are better able to pump two-phase flow ( the mixture of gas and liquid ), however, the resultant flow rate of the pump will be diminished because of the gas volumetrically displacing a disproportion of liquid.

Of course, when a simple function is used to estimate data points from the original, interpolation errors are usually present ; however, depending on the problem domain and the interpolation method used, the gain in simplicity may be of greater value than the resultant loss in accuracy.

The resultant pattern of loss was a patchwork, rather than wholesale loss of its centre, but was nevertheless very extensive.

This Act was created to promote employment of older persons based on their ability rather than age ; to prohibit arbitrary age discrimination in employment ; to help employers and workers find ways of meeting problems arising from the impact of age on employment because in the face of rising productivity and affluence, older workers find themselves disadvantaged in their efforts to retain employment, and especially to regain employment when displaced from jobs ; the setting of arbitrary age limits regardless of potential for job performance has become a common practice, and certain otherwise desirable practices may work to the disadvantage of older persons ; the incidence of unemployment, especially long-term unemployment with resultant deterioration of skill, morale, and employer acceptability is, relative to the younger ages, high among older workers ; their numbers are great and growing ; and their employment problems grave ; and the existence in industries affecting commerce, of arbitrary discrimination in employment because of age, burdens commerce and the free flow of goods in commerce.

The resultant theory copes with experiment better than classical mechanics, e. g. in the Michelson – Morley experiment that supports postulate 2, but also has many surprising consequences.

Various species of mosquitoes are estimated to transmit various types of disease to more than 700 million people annually in Africa, South America, Central America, Mexico, Russia and much of Asia, with millions of resultant deaths.

The E layer electron density and resultant MUF during high solar activity periods can refract and thus block signals of up to about 15 MHz from reaching the F1 and F2 regions, with the result that distances are much shorter than possible with refractions from the F1 and F2 regions.

If the surface is rough enough to create path-length differences exceeding one wavelength, giving rise to phase changes greater than 2π, the amplitude, and hence the intensity, of the resultant light varies randomly.

The resultant length of the flood-protected river comprises 2, 940 km ( out of 4, 220 km of all Hungarian protected rivers ) which forms one of the largest flood protection systems in Europe ; larger than the Netherlands ' 1, 500 km, the Po River's 1, 400 km, or the Loire Valley's 480 km.

The resultant performance has been remarkable, with the Pelican sailing, at speed, over 20 degrees nearer the wind than any square rigger.

The resultant circuit is nothing other than a resonant LC circuit in which the energy continues to oscillate to and fro.

It has been argued that happiness at work is one of the driving forces behind positive outcomes at work, rather than just being a resultant product.

As the material being carved has no particular direction to its grain and does not tend to split, it is easier to obtain certain artistic effects with lino than with most woods, although the resultant prints can lack the often angular grainy character of woodcuts and engravings.

Trancefer was far more obviously reliant on sequencers than previous recordings, and the resultant effect transformed Schulze's style from gentle melodic journeys to an ever-growing crescendo of music consisting of multi-layered rhythmical passages.

Tests whose results are of continuous values, such as most blood values, can artificially be made binary by defining a cutoff value, with test results being designated as positive or negative depending on whether the resultant value is higher or lower than the cutoff.

As a result, when converting a continuous value that is close to the cutoff to a binary one, the resultant positive or negative predictive value is generally higher than the predictive value given directly from the continuous value.

On the other hand, a test result very far from the cutoff generally has a resultant positive or negative predictive value that is lower than the predictive value given from the continuous value.

As such, if they may employ more workers than necessary, they might not be getting the market signals that would pressure them to reduce their labour force, and they may end up carrying the resultant excess costs and depressed profits.

Ne2 Nc6 9. Be3 0-0 10. 0-0 Bg4 11. f3 Na5 12. Bxf7 +, long thought a poor move by theory, as the resultant light-square weakness had been believed to give Black more than enough compensation for the pawn.
