In brief, solutions were solidified in test tubes of 10 mm diameter, placed in a sample holder, and simultaneously imaged together with calibration samples of copper sulfate (CuSO4 H2O) prepared in a similar fashion for the following concentrations: 6.54, 5.872, 5.538, 5.204, 4.87, 4.536, 3.868, 3.2, 2.08, 0.96, and 0.52 mg/mL.
GPs attended two 2½ hour group training sessions for instruction in the "stages of change" model 15 and training in brief, solution focused, family therapy.
The literature reports two tracks of parenting interventions: brief solution focused and general parent training, each with experimental evidence supporting its efficacy.
GPs attended a 2½ hour group training session for instruction in the "stages of change" model [ 30] and training in brief, solution-focused family therapy [ 31].
The weight management GP consultations were designed to: 1) review lifestyle and BMI progress; 2) identify and solve problems where possible; and 3) set new goals using brief solution-focused techniques.
Study personnel participated in four courses (1.5 days each) covering causes and consequences of childhood obesity, as well as nutrition, physical activity, introduction to family therapy and a brief solution focused method.
GPs used a brief, solution focused approach 21 to set and record appropriate, healthy lifestyle goals, assisted by a 16 page "family folder" written at a 12 year old reading level to be sure that virtually all parents could understand it.
In brief, the solutions of tetrandrine with concentrations of 0.5, 1, and 1.5 mmol/L in different concentrations (v/v) of ethanol-water (hydroethanolic) solutions were titrated with 0.01 mol/L hydrochloric acid at room temperature.
In brief, two solutions of anle138b (250 nM) were prepared in buffer (containing 0.0025 % DMSO).
In brief, saline solutions containing debris from swabs were centrifuged at 3000 rpm at 4°C for 15 minutes and the cell pellets resuspended in 400 μl phosphate buffered saline (PBS), before DNA extraction according to the manufacturer's instructions.
In brief, QD solutions containing individual COOH surface functionalized cadmium selenide (CdSe) core and zinc sulfide (ZnS) shell core-shell QDs (605 nm emission peak, Invitrogen, Carlsbad, CA) were electrosprayed using an electrospray aerosol generator (TSI Inc., Shoreview, MN, #3480) through a nominally 25 μm inner diameter capillary with a tapered outlet.
