In the case of Tabet v Gett (2010) 240 CLR 537, the High Court was forced to rule on the validity of awarding damages for a “loss of a chance” in medical negligence. In the judgement of this case the High Court considered the distinction between a Medical and Commercial “Lost Chance”. Following the English case Gregg v Scott [2005] 2 AC 176, the High Court unanimously rejected the claimants action for damages due to a lost chance at a better medical outcome. Gummow ACJ highlighted the difference…

in energy of the water sample to quantify the concentration of metal ions. EDTA Titration requires an actual reaction between the water sample and the EDTA which is measured by the number of EDTA drops necessary to turn the solution blue; the quantification of drops is used to calculate the concentrations of Mg2+ and Ca2+. From the test results, different concentrations are calculated and subsequently different hardness values. Though the two tests should result in a similar hardness, error…

Filtration of urine using Millipore filters (Dazo and Biles, 1974), Nucleopore filters, Nytrel filters or filter papers is the typical method for detecting excreted Schistosoma haematobium eggs (Peters et al., 1976). II) Immunological diagnosis: These methods are sensitive and specific, and useful in confirming the diagnosis (Bergquist, 1990). These tests are all time consuming and require a laboratory well equipped with proper instruments and trained persons (Xiang et al., 2003). Detection of…

Critical Analysis Critique of Evidence In review of, Continuous Positive Airway Pressure as Treatment for Systemic Hypertension in People With Obstructive Sleep Apnoea: Randomised Controlled Trial, (Duran-Cantolla et al. 2010), one strength included the study design; this was a randomized controlled trial. Other strengths consist of sample size, and the diagnosis of sleep apnea was conducted by the same method. In addition, the patients were newly diagnosed with hypertension, habitual snorers,…

approach in which organizing his book around theories, he organizes it around the key scopes of analysis, which are the definition of malefaction, free will or determinism, human nature, view of society and the nature of authenticity. Along each quantification Agnew endeavors to assess the contributions of each theoretical position to the rounded overall amalgamated theory. He is meticulous to include both mainstream and critical criminology’s…

Chitin is the second most abundant natural polysaccharide consisting of β(1→ 4)-linked N-acetyl-D-glucosamine (GlcNAc) units in a linear form. Chitin is insoluble in water and mainly exists in two crystalline (α- and β-) forms. The α-chitin consists of sheets of tightly packed alternating parallel and antiparallel chains (1) and is abundant in the exoskeleton of arthropods, insects, fungi, and yeast cell walls. The chains are arranged in parallel orientation in β-chitin (2), which occurs less…

The four methods used for quantification of alkalinity (4) are summarized below: •Use of a pH indicator: a change in the color from pure yellow to orange is observed and recorded when a known pH is reached. In this his experiment we used methyl orange as indicator The consumed volume…

Pollinators, flowers, and their relationship play an essential role in ecosystems. Pollinators are responsible for facilitating fertilization in flowering plants, which provides seed production in fruits and vegetables. Pollination is important in agricultural communities with the fertilization of crops. It is estimated that pollinators contribute to the global economy by adding 217 billion dollars from pollinating a vast array of crops (Gallai et al., 2009). The pollinator-flower relationship…

• In Food Analysis [23,24] The food matrices are divided into food of animal origin and related products, vegetables, fruits and related compounds, and other food-related matrices. HILIC is used on a large scale in the separation of different food matrices. In the recent years the use of HILIC has grown and the following figure relates to the same. Fig. 1. Evolution of the published works in the last decade in food analysis using HILIC (data up to end of January 2011). The sources of…

Case #1 Female 25 years old Kasey presented to lab test after a referral from her midwife on the 30th of March 2015 to confirm pregnancy. A CBC and HCG Quantification were ordered. On the 13th of August 2015, a new blood test CBC was taken as a procedure screening, which showed a decrease of hemoglobin, compared to in March. The patient showed no history of any complications or signs of fatigue. A screen for gestational diabetes mellitus was ordered to determine if the patient had diabetes. An…
