The minim was defined as one 60th of a fluid dram or one 480th of a fluid ounce. [4] This is equal to about 61.6 μL (U.S.) or 59.2 μL (Britain). Pharmacists have since moved to metric measurements, with a drop being rounded to exactly 0.05 mL (50 μL, that is, 20 drops per milliliter).
The normal range of GFR, adjusted for body surface area, is 100–130 average 125 mL/min/1.73m 2 in men and 90–120 ml/min/1.73m 2 in women younger than the age of 40. In children, GFR measured by inulin clearance is 110 mL/min/1.73 m 2 until 2 years of age in both sexes, and then it progressively decreases. After age 40, GFR decreases ...
Cosworth CR. The TJ and CA series are a family of naturally-aspirated V10 and V8 Formula One racing engines, in both 2.4-litre and 3-litre engine configurations, designed and developed by Cosworth; and produced between 2005 and 2013. [2] The customer engines were used by Minardi, Red Bull, Toro Rosso, Williams, Lotus, HRT, Virgin, and Marussia .
In a piston engine, the static compression ratio ( ) is the ratio between the volume of the cylinder and combustion chamber when the piston is at the bottom of its stroke, and the volume of the combustion chamber when the piston is at the top of its stroke. [ 9] It is therefore calculated by the formula [ 10] where. is the displacement volume.
Potassium iodide is highly soluble in water thus SSKI is a concentrated source of KI. At 20 degrees Celsius the solubility of KI is 140-148 grams per 100 grams of water. [56] Because the volumes of KI and water are approximately additive, the resulting SSKI solution will contain about 1.00 gram (1000 mg) KI per milliliter (mL) of solution.
Discharge coefficient. In a nozzle or other constriction, the discharge coefficient (also known as coefficient of discharge or efflux coefficient) is the ratio of the actual discharge to the ideal discharge, [ 1] i.e., the ratio of the mass flow rate at the discharge end of the nozzle to that of an ideal nozzle which expands an identical ...
Water injection has been used in both reciprocating and turbine aircraft engines. In a reciprocating engine, the use of water injection, also called anti-detonation injection or ADI, is used to prevent engine knocking also known as "detonation". [ 3] Commonly found on large radial engines with pressure carburetors, it is a mixture of water and ...
Colony-forming unit. In microbiology, a colony-forming unit ( CFU, cfu or Cfu) is a unit which estimates the number of microbial cells ( bacteria, fungi, viruses etc.) in a sample that are viable, able to multiply via binary fission under the controlled conditions. Counting with colony-forming units requires culturing the microbes and counts ...
