  2. Gravimetric analysis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gravimetric_analysis

    Gravimetric analysis describes a set of methods used in analytical chemistry for the quantitative determination of an analyte (the ion being analyzed) based on its mass. The principle of this type of analysis is that once an ion's mass has been determined as a unique compound, that known measurement can then be used to determine the same analyte's mass in a mixture, as long as the relative ...

  3. Detrended price oscillator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Detrended_price_oscillator

    The DPO is calculated by subtracting the simple moving average over an n day period and shifted (n / 2 + 1) days back from the price. To calculate the detrended price oscillator: [5] Decide on the time frame that you wish to analyze. Set n as half of that cycle period. Calculate a simple moving average for n periods. Calculate (n / 2 + 1).

  4. Analytical chemistry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Analytical_chemistry

    Analytical chemistry has been important since the early days of chemistry, providing methods for determining which elements and chemicals are present in the object in question. During this period, significant contributions to analytical chemistry included the development of systematic elemental analysis by Justus von Liebig and systematized ...

    This glossary of chemistry terms is a list of terms and definitions relevant to chemistry, including chemical laws, diagrams and formulae, laboratory tools, glassware, and equipment. Chemistry is a physical science concerned with the composition, structure, and properties of matter , as well as the changes it undergoes during chemical reactions ...

  6. High-test peroxide - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/High-test_peroxide

    High-test peroxide (HTP) is a highly concentrated (85 to 98%) solution of hydrogen peroxide, with the remainder consisting predominantly of water.In contact with a catalyst, it decomposes into a high-temperature mixture of steam and oxygen, with no remaining liquid water.

  7. Ab initio quantum chemistry methods - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ab_initio_quantum...

    Ab initio quantum chemistry methods are computational chemistry methods based on quantum chemistry. [1] The term ab initio was first used in quantum chemistry by Robert Parr and coworkers, including David Craig in a semiempirical study on the excited states of benzene. [2] [3] The background is described by Parr. [4]

  8. Hypothalamic–pituitary–thyroid axis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hypothalamic–pituitary...

    The hypothalamic–pituitary–thyroid axis (HPT axis for short, a.k.a. thyroid homeostasis or thyrotropic feedback control) is part of the neuroendocrine system responsible for the regulation of metabolism and also responds to stress. As its name suggests, it depends upon the hypothalamus, the pituitary gland, and the thyroid gland.

  9. Sensitivity and specificity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sensitivity_and_specificity

    There are different definitions within laboratory quality control, wherein "analytical sensitivity" is defined as the smallest amount of substance in a sample that can accurately be measured by an assay (synonymously to detection limit), and "analytical specificity" is defined as the ability of an assay to measure one particular organism or ...
