Letter: R.F. Pettigrew to H.L. Loucks, May 30, 1916
No full textR.F. Pettigrew articulates to H.L. Loucks his distaste for the book that Loucks recommended to him. Pettigrew also mentions that he would prefer to remain distanced from any conference with the author of the book. Pettigrew expresses great admiration and interest in Loucks' manuscript and desire to read it further

Antibiotic hypersensitivity mimicking recurrent endocarditis--identifying the culprit with the in vitro lymphocyte transformation test
No full textThe drug hypersensitivity syndrome is characterized by fever and systemic abnormalities including lymphopenia, lymphadenopathy, skin and visceral involvement mimicking systemic sepsis. The following case illustrates how the in vitro lymphocyte transformation test can be used to confirm drug hypersensitivity in this scenario, differentiating it from deteriorating infective endocarditis, hence avoiding progression to inappropriate interventions. <br/
Radiochemical measurements on neutron sources
Full text linkThe investigations described in this thesis relate to the development of an accurate method for the comparison of strengths of weak neutron sources with different spectra. This is part of a programme for the establishment of an absolute neutron standard. A detailed review of the preparation and properties of various portable neutron sources at present in use has been presented. The advantages of the stoichiometric compound, Radium Beryllium Fluoride (RaBeP4 ), as a reproducible neutron standard have been discussed. A survey of the existing methods for the absolute and relative strengths of neutron sources has been made and the need for an accurate method for the comparison of strengths of weak neutron sources with different spectra has been pointed out. The principle of thermalisation followed by physical integration, with a solution of indium sulphate, has been employed for developing a new method for the measurements of relative neutron source strengths. Using this method, the relative strength of the proposed RaBeF 4 standard source with respect to a standard radium-I--beryllium source was determined with an accuracy better than 1%. When the absolute strength of the latter source is determined, the absolute strength of the RaBeF4 source can be given with this accuracy. Investigations were also carried out to estimate the extent of loss of fast neutrons from the radium-(-beryllium sources by reactions with oxygen and sulphur present in aqueous moderator solutions normally used for neutron strength comparisons. The principle involved was to compare the relative strengths in an aqueous medium and an organic medium containing less oxygen, but having the seine hydrogen and indium contents. Since no systematic errors are involved, the value obtained is considered more reliable

Newspaper Clipping: Author Cornwell wants to help solve Civil War mystery
No full textA newspaper clipping of an article titled 'Author Cornwell wants to help solve Civil War mystery', published in an unknown newspaper on February 15, 2006. The article discusses author Patricia Cornwell's interest in donating funds toward studying what happened to the H.L. Hunley, a Confederate submarine that went missing during the Civil War and was rediscovered and excavated in 2000
Analysis of parasitic protozoa at the single-cell level using microfluidic impedance cytometry
Full text linkAt present, there are few technologies which enable the detection, identification and viability analysis of protozoan pathogens including Cryptosporidium and/or Giardia at the single (oo)cyst level. We report the use of Microfluidic Impedance Cytometry (MIC) to characterise the AC electrical (impedance) properties of single parasites and demonstrate rapid discrimination based on viability and species. Specifically, MIC was used to identify live and inactive C. parvum oocysts with over 90% certainty, whilst also detecting damaged and/or excysted oocysts. Furthermore, discrimination of Cryptosporidium parvum, Cryptosporidium muris and Giardia lamblia, with over 92% certainty was achieved. Enumeration and identification of (oo)cysts can be achieved in a few minutes, which offers a reduction in identification time and labour demands when compared to existing detection methods

A study of the 1984 report An Automatic Proof Procedure For Several Geometries by Th. Bruyn and H.L. Claasen
No full textThis report is a discussion of the 1984 report 'An automatic proof procedure for several geometries' by Th. Bruyn and H.L. Claasen, inspired by a personal desire to understand the work of Th. Bruyn. See: http://resolver.tudelft.nl/uuid:b768c6ce-f625-4236-9b0b-32a47fab143e Bruyn and Claasen prove that certain true propositions of the theory of intersections within the two-dimensional projective geometry over the real numbers can be formulated by use of figures. It is proven that figures obtained by manipulating these figures will also correspond to propositions. The method to do so proves that the obtained propositions are a direct consequence of the original propositions and are therefore proven to be true. One of their main results is to use the theorem of Pappus to generate the theorem of Desargues, thereby proving that Desargues follows from Pappus (something that is well known in projective geometry). This report aims to give a comprehensive explanation of their method as well as a detailed demonstration of their procedure. It is a summary of their work with added explanations and examples
