It is also possible to use other units. For example, in the 1930s Widmark measured alcohol and blood by mass, and thus reported his concentrations in units of g/kg or mg/g, weight alcohol per weight blood. 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.
A simple fraction (also known as a common fraction or vulgar fraction, where vulgar is Latin for "common") is a rational number written as a / b or , where a and b are both integers. [ 9] As with other fractions, the denominator ( b) cannot be zero. Examples include 1 2 , − 8 5 , −8 5 , and 8 −5 .
On the other side, the least efficient was British Airways at 27 pax-km/L (3.7 L/100 km [64 mpg ‑US] per passenger), using fuel-inefficient Boeing 747-400s with a low density of 0.75 seat/m 2 due to a high 25% premium seating, in spite of a high 82% load factor. [30]
Saline solution for irrigation. Normal saline (NSS, NS or N/S) is the commonly used phrase for a solution of 0.90% w/v of NaCl, 308 mOsm/L or 9.0 g per liter. Less commonly, this solution is referred to as physiological saline or isotonic saline (because it is approximately isotonic to blood serum, which makes it a physiologically normal solution).
The list includes the following Christian denominations: the Catholic Church (including the Eastern Catholic Churches), Protestant denominations with at least 0.2 million members (including Anglican churches, which are sometimes described as a via media between Catholicism and Protestantism), the Eastern Orthodox Church (and its offshoots), the Oriental Orthodox Churches (and their offshoots ...
f-number. Diagram of decreasing apertures, that is, increasing f-numbers, in one-stop increments; each aperture has half the light-gathering area of the previous one. An f-number is a measure of the light-gathering ability of an optical system such as a camera lens. It is calculated by dividing the system's focal length by the diameter of the ...
Voltage, also known as (electrical) potential difference, electric pressure, or electric tension is the difference in electric potential between two points. [ 1][ 2] In a static electric field, it corresponds to the work needed per unit of charge to move a positive test charge from the first point to the second point.
Estradiol levels after an intramuscular injection of 10 mg estradiol valerate in oil, Climacteron (150 mg testosterone enanthate, 1 mg estradiol benzoate, 7.5 mg estradiol dienanthate in oil), and control group in 20, 11, and 11 ovariectomized women, respectively. [128] Assays were performed using RIA. [128] Source was Sherwin et al. (1987). [128]
