Even a small addition of zinc-white ( oxide of zinc ) to the reddish varieties especially causes a considerable diminution in the intensity of the color, while dilution with artificial precipitated sulfate of lime (" annalin ") or sulfate of baryta (" blanc fix ") acts pretty much as one would expect.

The folk revival of the mid-20th century, for example, appropriated the musics of various rural peoples, in part to promote certain political causes, which has caused some to question whether the process caused the " commercial commodification of other peoples ' songs ... and the inevitable dilution of mean " in the appropriated musics.

To distinguish the above causes, mixing tests are performed, in which the patient's plasma is mixed ( initially at a 50: 50 dilution ) with normal plasma.

Homeopaths claim that the molecules leave an " imprint " in the dilution that causes a healing effect on the body, although there is no evidence that supports this mechanism or efficacy beyond placebo.

From equation ( ii ) it is a clear that degree of ionization increases on dilution.

By this procedure rinsing progresses in two stages, first by dilution until the time when the drains are separated and thereafter by displacement of the soil-bearing liquor by clean rinse water, since soiled liquor squeezed from the specimens at the nip passes directly to waste from the suds box drains.

Work stoppages and strikes became frequent in 1917 – 18 as the unions expressed grievances regarding prices, liquor control, pay disputes, " dilution ", fatigue from overtime and from Sunday work, and inadequate housing.

The dilution factor is the measure of the amount of water used in washing compared with the theoretical amount required to displace the liquor from the thickened pulp.

Dapple genes, which are dominant genes, are considered " dilution " genes, meaning whatever color the dog would have originally carried is lightened, or diluted, randomly ; two dominant " dilution " genes can cancel each other out, or " cross ", removing all color and producing a white recessive gene, essentially a white mutation.

In another example, coat color in siamese cats and related breeds is determined by a series of alleles at the albino gene locus ( c ) that produce different levels of pigment and hence different levels of color dilution.

A glaze is the application of one paint color over a previous paint layer, with the new paint layer at a dilution sufficient to allow the first color to show through.

Genetically, the palomino color is created by a single allele of a dilution gene called the cream gene working on a " red " ( chestnut ) base coat.

However, most color breed registries that record palomino horses were founded before equine coat color genetics were understood as well as they are today, and hence the standard definition of a palomino is based on the coat color visible, not the underlying presence of the dilution gene.

* Equine coat color genetics discusses color genes in horses, including a brief description of dilution genes

* Silver dapple gene, describes a dilution gene that works in a unique manner, lighting the mane and tail of a horse to a greater degree than the body color ( opposite of most dilution genes, which act more strongly on the body color )

Unlike some coat color dilution lethals, which may result in premature births, stillborn, or weak foals, foals born with lethal white syndrome appear to be fully formed and normal.

Since 1963, the American Buckskin Registry Association has been keeping track of horses with this coat color, and although Buckskin is sometimes classified as a color breed, due to its genetic makeup that depends on having one, not two copies of the dilution allele, it cannot ever be a consistently true-breeding trait.

This smoky cream tobiano illustrates the difference between unpigmented ( white ) skin and hair, and skin and hair color due to the cream dilution.

When a horse is homozygous, meaning it has two copies of the cream allele, the strongest color dilution occurs.

In Scoville's method, a measured amount of alcohol extract of the capsaicin oil of the dried pepper is produced, after which a solution of sugar and water is added incrementally until the " heat " is just barely detectable by a panel of ( usually five ) tasters ; the degree of dilution gives its measure on the Scoville scale.

All such species have no " post-mitotic " cells ; they reduce the effect of damaging free radicals by cell division and dilution.

Drew is popularly credited with introducing what would be called " watered stock " to the New York financial district, to describe company shares that were issued by false means such as counterfeit certificates or shares issued that were not authorized, resulting in a dilution of ownership ; the term supposedly came from his time in the cattle business, when he would have his cattle drink water before selling them, to increase their weight temporarily.

After mixing up the concentrate to the prescribed recipe ( including all recommended safety precautions-), the syrup is diluted 5: 1 with (" preferably sodium-free ") soda water to make the finished drink ; at this dilution, the above combination of ingredients will yield approximately 24 litres of OpenCola.

Body plethysmography is particularly appropriate for patients who have air spaces which do not communicate with the bronchial tree ; in such patients helium dilution would give an incorrectly low reading.

However, it is possible for a horse to carry both dilution genes ; these are called " buckskin duns " or sometimes " dunskins.

Other members of this family include SLC45A2, which is responsible for pigmentation variations of many types in humans, as well as the cream coat color in horses ; and SLC24A5, which is responsible for the Golden dilution in mice.

Various other techniques have largely relegated the PA catheter to history, e. g. the lithium dilution technique ; the external bio-resistance monitor or the very simple and reliable technique of esophogeal doppler measurements of the descending aorta.

Absolute zero cannot be achieved, although it is possible to reach temperatures close to it through the use of cryocoolers, dilution refrigerators, and nuclear adiabatic demagnetization.

The term antibiotic was first used in 1942 by Selman Waksman and his collaborators in journal articles to describe any substance produced by a microorganism that is antagonistic to the growth of other microorganisms in high dilution.

In addition, the stability of a microemulsion is often easily compromised by dilution, by heating, or by changing pH levels.

Wilhelm Ostwald ’ s dilution law is a relationship between the dissociation constant and the degree of dissociation of a weak electrolyte ( acids, bases ).

Thus, degree of dissociation of a weak electrolyte is proportional to the square root of dilution.

the cause of failure of Ostwald's dilution law in the case of strong electrolytes is due to the following factors "

( i ) The law is based on the fact that only a portion of the electrolyte is dissociated into ions at ordinary dilution and completely at infinite dilution.

This usually occurs when the dilution of the paint is not done as per manufacturers recommendation.

For most uses, dilution with water is recommended for safety and to avoid damaging the surfaces being cleaned.

** The Eurafrican Mediterranean Sea is also a concentration basin as a whole, but the Black Sea and the Adriatic Sea are dilution basins ( see below ) owing to the Danube, Don, and Dnieper Rivers and the Po River respectively.

The most secure way to use any of the following substances for invisible ink is by dilution, usually with water, close to the point when they become difficult to develop.

Cut and fill mining is an expensive but selective method, with low ore loss and dilution.

Although it is very selective and allows for low dilution, since the most of the ore stays in the stope until mining is completed there is a delayed return on capital investments.

Beryllium copper has found use in ultra-low temperature cryogenic equipment, such as dilution refrigerators, because of its combination of mechanical strength and relatively high thermal conductivity in this temperature range.

Correct proportion of this anticoagulant to blood is crucial because of the dilution.

Serologic testing may not be specific for serotype ( has some cross reactivity with other chlamydia species ) and can suggest LGV from other forms because of their difference in dilution, 1: 64 more likely to be LGV and lower than 1: 16 is likely to be other chlamydia forms ( emedicine ).

EDTA ( lavender ) tubes are usually used, although citrate ( blue top ) tubes will also work ( although the result must be corrected because of dilution ).

This certification process may be perceived as an advantage by established software developers because the difficulties associated with testing and development costs create a high cost of entry to developers with low budgets and little time, resulting in less market dilution.

The slippery feeling experienced when using soap with soft water occurs because soaps tend to bind to fats in the surface layers of skin, making soap molecules difficult to remove by simple dilution.

White Shepherds were once blamed for color dilution or paling for the entire breed because the recessive e allele of the MC1R ( E ) gene locus masks expression of alleles at other gene loci that actually do code for lighter ( often termed as diluted or pale ) colors of silver, black and tan or liver.

This move met with opposition from a group called Concerned Catholics, because they thought this would lead to a dilution of Catholic teaching, though the Anglican Church agreed to use the Catholic RE syllabus.

Sephadex is superior to dialysis ( Desalting ) because of the considerable time savings, the low dilution factor ( which can be as low as 1. 4: 1 ), and the high activity recoveries even with very small amounts of sample.

Because of this dilution and because < sup > 105 </ sup > Pd has 11 times the neutron absorption cross section, < sup > 107 </ sup > Pd is not amenable to disposal by nuclear transmutation.
