  2. Fever - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fever

    Fever is generally agreed to be present if the elevated temperature [31] is caused by a raised set point and: Temperature in the anus (rectum/rectal) is at or over 37.5–38.3 °C (99.5–100.9 °F). [1] [8] An ear (tympanic) or forehead (temporal) temperature may also be used. [32] [33]

  3. Solubility table - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solubility_table

    The tables below provides information on the variation of solubility of different substances (mostly inorganic compounds) in water with temperature, at one atmosphere pressure. Units of solubility are given in grams of substance per 100 millilitres of water (g/(100 mL)), unless shown otherwise.

  4. Complete blood count - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Complete_blood_count

    A complete blood count (CBC), also known as a full blood count (FBC), is a set of medical laboratory tests that provide information about the cells in a person's blood.The CBC indicates the counts of white blood cells, red blood cells and platelets, the concentration of hemoglobin, and the hematocrit (the volume percentage of red blood cells).

  5. Standard temperature and pressure - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Standard_temperature_and...

    For example, IUPAC has, since 1982, defined standard reference conditions as being 0 °C and 100 kPa (1 bar), in contrast to its old standard of 0 °C and 101.325 kPa (1 atm). [2] The new value is the mean atmospheric pressure at an altitude of about 112 metres, which is closer to the worldwide median altitude of human habitation (194 m).

  6. Alcohol by volume - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alcohol_by_volume

    Volume fraction, which is widely used in chemistry (commonly denoted as v/v), is defined as the volume of a particular component divided by the sum of all components in the mixture when they are measured separately. For example, to make 100 mL of 50% alc/vol ethanol solution, water would be added to 50 mL of ethanol to make up exactly 100 mL.

    [10] [21] [22] [23] It was created to make sure that the needs of children were systematically considered such as availability of proper formulations. [ 24 ] [ 25 ] Everything in the children's list is also included in the main list. [ 26 ]

  8. Staphylococcus aureus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Staphylococcus_aureus

    Staphylococcus aureus is a gram-positive spherically shaped bacterium, a member of the Bacillota, and is a usual member of the microbiota of the body, frequently found in the upper respiratory tract and on the skin. It is often positive for catalase and nitrate reduction and is a facultative anaerobe, meaning that it can grow without oxygen. [1]

  9. Water vapor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Water_vapor

    Water vapor is lighter or less dense than dry air. [11] [12] At equivalent temperatures it is buoyant with respect to dry air, whereby the density of dry air at standard temperature and pressure (273.15 K, 101.325 kPa) is 1.27 g/L and water vapor at standard temperature has a vapor pressure of 0.6 kPa and the much lower density of 0.0048 g/L.
