Bioconcentration. In aquatic toxicology, bioconcentration is the accumulation of a water-borne chemical substance in an organism exposed to the water. [ 1][ 2] There are several ways in which to measure and assess bioaccumulation and bioconcentration. These include: octanol-water partition coefficients (K OW ), bioconcentration factors (BCF ...
The Variant Call Format or VCF is a standard text file format used in bioinformatics for storing gene sequence variations. The format was developed in 2010 for the 1000 Genomes Project and has since been used by other large-scale genotyping and DNA sequencing projects. [ 1][ 2] VCF is a common output format for variant calling programs due to ...

Girard form class is the primary expression of tree form in the United States. To allow for log trimming and a 1-foot stump height the diameter inside bark is measured at 17.3 feet above the ground. The closer the form class value to 100 the closer the log resembles a cylinder, where a value of 100 means the log is very nearly a cylinder.
High-temperature operating life. High-temperature operating life (HTOL) is a reliability test applied to integrated circuits (ICs) to determine their intrinsic reliability. This test stresses the IC at an elevated temperature, high voltage and dynamic operation for a predefined period of time. The IC is usually monitored under stress and tested ...
Octanol-water partition coefficient. The n-octanol-water partition coefficient, Kow is a partition coefficient for the two-phase system consisting of n -octanol and water. [ 1] Kow is also frequently referred to by the symbol P, especially in the English literature. It is also called n-octanol-water partition ratio. [ 2][ 3][ 4]
For petroleum gases, the standard cubic foot (scf) is defined as one cubic foot of gas at 60 °F (288.7 K; 15.56 °C) and at normal sea level air pressure. The pressure definition differs between sources, but are all close to normal sea level air pressure. A pressure of 14.696 pounds per square inch (1.00000 atm; 101.325 kPa). [2]
Overeating can cause indigestion and stomach pain, per Cleveland Clinic. When you eat until you’re 100 percent full (and beyond that), you slow down digestion, absorption, and metabolism ...
