With magnetic resonance imaging to delineate the entire lesion of lymphangioma circumscriptum, one can (1) provide education to the family regarding the extent of involvement and (2) prevent incomplete invasive surgical procedures from being performed.
Whether pH is being used to test a sample against a legal requirement or specification; as part of an analytical method; for monitoring and controlling a reaction; as a process control in the chemical industry; or for the environmental monitoring of waste and effluents, it is important that all pH measurements are carried out in a logical and consistent manner, paying careful attention to experimental procedures, in order to obtain reliable results. This guide provides scientists with the knowledge of how to do just that, first by outlining the principles of pH measurement and buffer solutions. pH meters and electrodes are then discussed, including selection criteria and the care of electrodes. Finally, sections on making pH measurements and uncertainty are followed by a set of practical exercises. Measurement of pH is one of the Practical Laboratory Skills Training Guides, a series that aims to make achieving best practice easy. These invaluable manuals will enable both experienced and inexperienced staff to get the essential basics of any experiment right simply by following the clear and easy to use instructions provided. The guides are written by experienced scientists and include minimal theory, plenty of practical exercises in order to assess competence, and trouble shooting information. Other titles are: Measurement of Mass; Measurement of Volume; High Performance Liquid Chromatography; and Gas Chromatography.
For those new to this technique, this guide provides basic tips, key skills, awareness and guidance on good practice of High Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC). It will help build understanding of the important issues to consider during analysis and how to develop further skills. HPLC is one of the most widely used techniques in industry to separate and analyse compounds through the mass transfer of analytes between stationary and mobile phases. This guide will prove an invaluable introduction to the technique. Starting with a look at the basic theory, the guide goes on to describe HPLC components, system parameters, suitability checks and testing. Later sections cover calibration, problem solving and data handling.
