However, laboratory methods used for assessing the slaking behavior of clay-bearing rocks, including the standardized methods by the American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM) and the International Society for Rock Mechanics (ISRM), involve only wetting and drying treatments.
In all cases, the samples had been sent for chemical analysis to accredited laboratories that used the standardized methods required by the Swedish EPA.
The paper is important for the analytical practice because currently the standardized methods for soil analysis by atomic absorption spectrometry are LR-LS FAAS and GFAAS [53].
Total phenolic and flavonoid content of SSME was estimated at 725 nm and 510 nm, respectively by the previously standardized methods [ 18].
Azole and flucytosine breakpoints, and the echinocandin susceptible breakpoint, are useful when isolates are tested by CLSI standardized methods; breakpoints are also available by the EUCAST method.
All laboratory values were measured by automated and standardized methods in the DaVita Laboratory.
HbA1c was measured by standardized methods, as established in the referring physician's hospital, and the patient's individual mean HbA1c during the observation period during childhood and adolescence was determined.
Quantitative estimation of Alanine aminotranferease (ALT), aspartate aminotransferase (AST) and alkaline phosphatase was done using specific kit [Erba Diagnostics Mannheim GmBH, Germany] using RA -50 semi auto analyzer by well standardized methods [ 41].
Estimation of total cholesterol, low density lipoprotein, high density lipoproteins, very low density lipoproteins, creatine kinase (CK-MB and CK-NAC), lactate dehydrogenase (LDH), uric acid and troponin I in the serum was done using appropriate kits on RA-50 semi auto analyzer by well standardized methods.
