The use of 100 instead of 140 substance paper plus the adoption of side stapling beginning with the May 1960 issue reduced costs sufficiently to allow completion of the fiscal year with nearly $4,000 in unexpended funds.

Whether this abnormal TSH differs chemically from pituitary TSH, or is, alternatively, normal TSH with its period of effectiveness modified by some other blood constituent, cannot be decided without chemical study of the activity in the blood of these patients and a comparison of the substance responsible for the blood activity with pituitary Aj.

The international unit is equipotent with the USP unit adopted in 1952, which was defined as the amount of activity present in 20 mg of the USP reference substance.

Blood blisters could be prevented from forming by rubbing a work blister immediately with any hard nonpoisonous substance.

Yet with all this knowledge I had nothing of substance to unravel our case, as you would call it, till yesterday.

Dignity and comfort, in a contemporary manner, reflecting the best aspects of today's design, with substance and maturity, keynote the Perennian collection from Heritage.

An acid ( from the Latin acidus / acēre meaning sour ) is a substance which reacts with a base.

In order to help reestablish his name and improve the image of his business from the earlier controversies associated with the dangerous explosives, Nobel had also considered naming the highly powerful substance " Nobel's Safety Powder ", but settled with Dynamite instead, referring to the Greek word for ' power '.

Nobel later on combined nitroglycerin with various nitrocellulose compounds, similar to collodion, but settled on a more efficient recipe combining another nitrate explosive, and obtained a transparent, jelly-like substance, which was a more powerful explosive than dynamite.

When a molten metal is mixed with another substance, there are two mechanisms that can cause an alloy to form, called atom exchange and the interstitial mechanism.

His best-known discoveries are the enzyme lysozyme in 1923 and the antibiotic substance penicillin from the mould Penicillium notatum in 1928, for which he shared the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine in 1945 with Howard Florey and Ernst Boris Chain.

Bogers and Fijneman were charged with distributing a scheduled substance ( DMT ); however, the prosecution was unable to prove that the use of ayahuasca by members of the Santo Daime constituted a sufficient threat to public health and order that it warranted denying their rights to religious freedom under ECHR Article 9.

Alone or together with anticonvulsants ( e. g., carbamazepine or valproate ), these medications can be used to treat attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder ( ADHD ) and substance abuse by addressing underlying depression.

Close supervision of those with substance abuse disorders is urged.

This forms curds, which are neutralized with a base, such as sodium bicarbonate ( baking soda ), to cause them to unclump and become a thicker plastic-like substance.

After heating this substance with calcium hydroxide ( slaked lime ), a far more strongly basic substance known as caustic potash ( potassium hydroxide ) was produced.

The possible mechanisms of action of antioxidants were first explored when it was recognized that a substance with anti-oxidative activity is likely to be one that is itself readily oxidized.

The properties of the resulting substance resembled that of an intermediate of chlorine and iodine ; with those results he tried to prove that the substance was iodine monochloride ( ICl ), but after failing to do so he was sure that he had found a new element and named it muride, derived from the Latin word muria for brine.

When certain ionic compounds containing bromine are mixed with potassium permanganate ( KMnO < sub > 4 </ sub >) and an acidic substance, they will form a pale brown cloud of bromine gas.

APA does not recommend benzodiazepines for persons with depressive symptoms or a recent history of substance abuse.

* a < sub > w </ sub >, or Water activity, the relative availability of water in a substance

In the strictest technical sense, the word " stability " is a thermodynamic term referring to the energy of a substance relative to a reference state or to some other substance.

The GWP is defined as the ratio of the time-integrated radiative forcing from the instantaneous release of 1 kg of a trace substance relative to that of 1 kg of a reference gas:

The opposing view states that unalterable Form, does not exist, or at least if there is such a thing, it contains an ever changing, relative substance in a constant state of flux.

If the reference material is water then a substance with a relative density ( or specific gravity ) less than 1 will float in water.

where RD is relative density, ρ < sub > substance </ sub > is the density of the substance being measured, and ρ < sub > reference </ sub > is the density of the reference.

which means " the relative density of substance with respect to reference ".

" The determination of the relative strength of a substance ( as a drug ) by comparing its effect on a test organism with that of a standard preparation.

In a substance with high thermal diffusivity, heat moves rapidly through because the substance conducts heat quickly relative to its volumetric heat capacity or ' thermal bulk '.

He thus concludes that the idea of the self is not logically dependent on any physical thing, and that the soul should not be seen in relative terms, but as a primary given, a substance.

These principles of reason, cause and substance, given thus psychologically, enable us to pass beyond the limits of the relative and subjective to objective and absolute reality, they enable us, in a word, to pass from psychology, or the science of knowledge, to ontology or the science of being.

In chemistry, heat capacity is often specified relative to one mole, the unit of amount of substance, and is called the molar heat capacity.

Lubrication is the process, or technique employed to reduce wear of one or both surfaces in close proximity, and moving relative to each another, by interposing a substance called lubricant between the surfaces to carry or to help carry the load ( pressure generated ) between the opposing surfaces.

Hydro-Man is able to bodily transform himself into a watery liquid substance ; he can access secure areas and small openings with relative ease ; when his bodily mass is dispersed in this form it simply reforms, albeit slowly depending on how far apart the mass was.

If intensive internal energy is expressed relative to units of amount of substance ( mol ), then it is referred to as molar internal energy and the unit is J / mol.

Occasionally a reference substance other than water is specified ( for example, air ), in which case specific gravity means density relative to that reference.

" The absorbancy of a reference substance is set as a baseline value, so the absorbancies of all other substances are recorded relative to the initial " zeroed " substance.

The spectrophotometer then displays % absorbancy ( the amount of light absorbed relative to the initial substance ).

Typical uses of GC include testing the purity of a particular substance, or separating the different components of a mixture ( the relative amounts of such components can also be determined ).

There was a peculiar density about it, a thick substance that could be sensed but never identified, never actually perceived.

Increasing the temperature of a substance ( with some exceptions ) decreases its density by increasing the volume of that substance.

The reciprocal of the density of a substance is called its specific volume, a representation commonly used in thermodynamics.

Density is an intensive property in that increasing the amount of a substance does not increase its density ; rather it increases its mass.

The pressure due to a liquid in liquid columns of constant density or at a depth within a substance is represented by the following formula:

Relative density, or specific gravity, is the ratio of the density ( mass of a unit volume ) of a substance to the density of a given reference material.

where the superscript indicates the temperature at which the density of the material is measured, and the subscript indicates the temperature of the reference substance to which it is compared.

Relative density can also help quantify the buoyancy of a substance in a fluid, or determine the density of an unknown substance from the known density of another.
