The node-level alarm is sent when an isolate node detects the maximum allowable number of alarms.
The extreme toxicity of this compound as well as the ability of the human nose to detect concentrations of this chemical well below the allowable exposure limits bode well for the efficacy and safety of DMDS as a soil fumigant.
A target sample size of 2046 (i.e. 2046 interviews) was calculated to detect a prevalence of 10%, with 1.3% allowable error and 95% confidence (Epi Info v. 3.5.3, CDC, USA).
Taken together, although the ozone concentration with 100 ppm was 1000 times higher than the maximum allowable concentration (MAC), we could not detect any changes in the expression of those integrins which were enhanced by DBD/air plasma treatment.
Moreover, these data entry errors would be hard to detect: Only 0.06% of the errors were blank or outside of the allowable range for the variables.
The sample size was determined to allow for ∼20% attrition and noncompliance and to provide ≥80% power to detect a minimal difference of 2.5% in FMD between treatments with maximum allowable type I error of 5%.
A target sample size of 2850 interviews per month in the surveillance areas was calculated to detect a prevalence of 5%, with a 5% level of precision and a 0.8% allowable error (Epi Info v. 3.0.2, CDC, USA).
Midstokke's idea is Safe Tap, "a simple way to detect lead in household water". The prototype consists of "small white spheres that when placed into a glass of water will turn green if the lead level is over the allowable amount," according to an MIT News account.
Japan's nuclear and industrial safety agency (Nisa) said radioactive iodine-131 of 1,150 times the maximum allowable level had been detected in seawater near drainage outlets serving four of Fukushima's reactors.
With a vibration based method, real time monitoring of scouring damage to subsea pipelines is achievable so that any free span longer than allowable span length can be detected at an early stage.
This label-free PC bioassay is more attractive than labeling detection because target molecules can be detected in their nature forms, truly portable point-of-care testing is possible, and quantitative measurement of molecule interaction is allowable.
