  2. Blood alcohol content - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blood_alcohol_content

    Blood is denser than water and 1 mL of blood has a mass of approximately 1.055 grams, thus a mass-volume BAC of 1 g/L corresponds to a mass-mass BAC of 0.948 mg/g. Sweden, Denmark, Norway, Finland, Germany, and Switzerland use mass-mass concentrations in their laws, [ 5 ] but this distinction is often skipped over in public materials, [ 13 ...

  3. Magnesium alloy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnesium_alloy

    Addition of small amounts of zinc in Mg-RE alloys has been shown to increase creep life by 600% by stabilizing precipitates on both basal and prismatic planes through localized bond stiffening. [19] These developments have allowed for magnesium alloys to be used in automotive and aerospace applications at relatively high temperatures. [16]

  4. Standard normal table - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Standard_normal_table

    gives a probability that a statistic is greater than Z. This equates to the area of the distribution above Z. Example: Find Prob(Z ≥ 0.69). Since this is the portion of the area above Z, the proportion that is greater than Z is found by subtracting Z from 1. That is Prob(Z ≥ 0.69) = 1 − Prob(Z ≤ 0.69) or {{{1}}}.

  5. Median lethal dose - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Median_lethal_dose

    It is often expressed in terms of mg-min/m 3. ICt 50 is the dose that will cause incapacitation rather than death. These measures are commonly used to indicate the comparative efficacy of chemical warfare agents, and dosages are typically qualified by rates of breathing (e.g., resting = 10 L/min) for inhalation, or degree of clothing for skin ...

  6. p-value - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/P-value

    In a significance test, the null hypothesis is rejected if the p-value is less than or equal to a predefined threshold value , which is referred to as the alpha level or significance level. α {\displaystyle \alpha } is not derived from the data, but rather is set by the researcher before examining the data.

  7. Visual acuity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Visual_acuity

    The resulting acuity may be greater or less than 6/6 = 1.0. Indeed, a subject diagnosed as having 6/6 vision will often actually have higher visual acuity because, once this standard is attained, the subject is considered to have normal (in the sense of undisturbed) vision and smaller optotypes are not tested.

  8. Tryptophan - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tryptophan

    Tryptophan ball and stick model spinning. Tryptophan (symbol Trp or W) [3] is an α-amino acid that is used in the biosynthesis of proteins.Tryptophan contains an α-amino group, an α-carboxylic acid group, and a side chain indole, making it a polar molecule with a non-polar aromatic beta carbon substituent.
