Absorbed dose

Background: the proportion of teeth is related to facial coordination. If the width length ratio is large, the shape of the teeth will look square, and if the ratio is close to 1, then the teeth will look close to the square, more suitable for round faces. Conversely, if the width ratio is too small, then the tooth shape is more slender, more suitable for longer face type crowd. The width of the crown of the front teeth can be extended to determine whether the proportion of teeth is appropriate and

administration is by inhalation of a pressurised metered dose aerosol. Inhalation of Salbutamol directly reaches the lungs and acts rapidly with fewer side effects, but only 10-25% is actively absorbed as the remainder is swallowed (Orion Phama, 2015). Oral administrations by tablet and syrup forms are used by patients who can’t manage the inhaled route. Salbutamol has a lower onset of action via the oral route and 50% of the dosage is absorbed from the intestinal tract (Salbutamol, 2014). Salbutamol

has Ph.D. in Chemistry and a current Clinical MD, and Kristina I. Rother (NPI); BSc and current M.D in counselling psychology (www.orcid.org, 2017). The reason the researchers conducted a study was because they wanted to know how much sucralose absorbed to your blood, if it affected children, if there was a higher concentration within children, what were the effects on adults, how prominent was sucralose in their blood and what potential effects might it have on children.

Enzymes are biological catalysts that are responsible for the biochemical reactions inside living cells. They are made up of proteins that are synthesised by only living cells and speeds up the rate of reaction by up to a million times (Greenwood, 2011). Temperature, pH levels, substrate and enzyme concentration and inhibitors affects the enzyme action (Rsc.org, 2016). Two theories are used to describe the mechanisms of enzyme activity; the lock and key theory and the induced fit mechanism. The

Madison O’Reilly is a 6-year-old Caucasian female who has been brought to the pharmacy’s walk in clinic. Her mother states, she woke up about 3 hours ago crying with pain in her right ear. She also has a fever of 102 Fahrenheit. The otoscopic exam reveals a red, bulging eardrum. Madison weighs 36 pounds/ 16 kg. 1. What beta-lactam antibiotic will you prescribe? According to Epocrates, the drug of choice would be amoxicillin (Amoxil), which is in the penicillin family. If failed treatment occurs

Marijuana, also commonly referred to as pot, weed, cannabis, or a variety of other names, has been cultivated as early as 4000B.C. in China, from the hemp plant cannabis sativa (Miller, 2012). There have been reports of it being used for medicinal purposes dating as far back as 1500B.C. (ProCon.org, 2012a). Although cannabis contains a variety of different chemicals, the main, and most understood, ingredient is THC, delta-9-tetrahydrocannabinol. The amount of THC in marijuana determines the drug’s

Reliability of other conventional radiation detectors in space and terrestrial application is much affected by electromagnetic interference and exposure to fire and explosion potential hazards. However the functionality of optical fiber at extremely high dose radiation still a challenge where radiation induced attenuation can be increased for permanent damage of the sensor. There is a need to develop a new sensing material with small dimension and low mass such as single mode silica optical

occur a segment of the chromosome breaking off and re-joining at another location (Cancer quest). The ionizing radiation can cause cells to die, but sometimes it can lead to cancer later on. The amount of damage caused in the cell is related to the dose, frequency, a position on the body in which the x-ray is taking place determines the extenet to which thesse mutations can occur. The damage can take place in a matter of seconds or it can take years to develop. (American Cancer Society) Sub issue

why a technologist could not shield the areas that were not of interest. When I asked, some would say that they do not shield because streaking would show on the image and it would mess up their machine. Others told me that shields actually increase dose to the patient. A few technologists mentioned that shielding has to be done correctly, but it can be done. How can so many people not be in agreement about a principle that is fundamental to their work? How can shielding a patient in CT be any different

thickness of paper and plastic. They need to use different forms of radiation when testing different object e.g. using gamma to test the thickness of metal or beta to test the thickness of plastic. The thicker the material, the more radiation is absorbed and the less radiation reaches the detector. It then sends signals to the equipment that adjusts the thickness of the material so that the right amount of radiation goes through. Anyone who works there must be protected by a lead or concrete shield
