A lethal dose of the insecticide is absorbed by insects which come into contact with the surface.

The dose of radiation to the conjunctiva is controlled by the time that the plaque is left in contact with the surface.

If a change in surface height represents an isostatically compensated change in crustal thickness, the rate of change of potential energy per unit surface area is proportional to the rate of increase of average surface height.

Source The Daily Dose.

Physiological scaling Many physiological and biochemical processes (such as heart rate, respiration rate or the maximum reproduction rate) show scaling, mostly associated with the ratio between surface area and mass (or volume) of the animal.

Stochastic health effects occur by chance, generally occurring without a threshold level of dose, whose probability is proportional to the dose and whose severity is independent of the dose, such as cancer and genetic effects.

Nigerians can use a dose of hope.

The radiation dose from a nuclear medicine investigation is expressed as an effective dose with units of sieverts (usually given in millisieverts, mSv).

The Certain Safety Factor is the ratio of the lethal dose to 1 of population to the effective dose to 99 of the population (LD1 ED99).

Sami injected Layla with a pretty heavy dose of meth.

Add to this a regular dose of North Korean irrationality.

Interest rate increases will deliver a fresh dose of reality the interest expense of owning a home is going to claim a larger share of family budgets, a hard fact that will eventually sink into our thinking.

Indeed, what is needed now is another dose of fiscal stimulus.

There are several reasons to favor a healthy dose of decentralization.

The effective dose resulting from an investigation is influenced by the amount of radioactivity administered in megabecquerels (MBq), the physical properties of the radiopharmaceutical used, its distribution in the body and its rate of clearance from the body.

Similar to surface tension, adsorption is a consequence of surface energy.

Parts and components of liquid propellant surface to air missiles can also be reused in a surface to surface role, like the liquid propellant engines of the SA 2 missiles used in the Samoud 2 surface to surface missiles.

The annual dose an individual receives is a result of background radiation.

In the year 1988 the original high dose pill was taken off the market and replaced with a low dose pill that was considered to have less risks and some health benefits.

Indeed, since 2006, the price of rotavirus vaccine has fallen by 67 , to just 2.50 per dose, while the price of a dose of pneumococcal conjugate vaccine has plummeted by 90 , to 3.50.

At their sSixteenth Meeting, the Parties to the Protocol reviewed and approved the requestsCFC metered dose inhaler, of certain countries for essential uses of exemptions for CFCs for metered dose inhalers nominationsfor 2006.

However, a low dose of hydrochlorothiazide does not seem to increase the risk.

Only a small percentage (less than 1 ) of the dose is recovered thereafter.

Testing on rats showed a dose of 1.6 mg kg to be deadly.

For most insects, a dose of 10 mg kg is enough to be fatal.

There were very few hard data on the health effects of low dose radiation.

For now, the Chinese economy, having received its cyclical dose of stimulus, should be okay.

In some patients, the effects of a single dose can last more than a week.

If I put some tension on my body, tension on my suit, I can make it fly. And as you see the fall rate is much much slower because of the bigger surface.

Nevertheless, strategic anxiety lurks below the surface, particularly in India. China s GDP is three times that of India, its growth rate is higher, and its defense budget increased by nearly 18 last year.

Insofar as the thermohaline circulation governs the rate at which deep waters are exposed to the surface, it may also play an important role in the concentration of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere.

However, strictly speaking DAP KAP x (1 g) where g is the fraction of energy of liberated charged particles that is lost in radiative processes in the material, and the dose is expressed in absorbed dose to air.

Finally, surface temperature is used.

Under present international guidelines it is assumed that any radiation dose, however small, presents a risk.

The median lethal dose of alcohol in test animals is a blood alcohol content of 0.45 .

Six thousand kilometers below the surface, the planet s core is as hot as the surface of the sun.

The energy of the laser heats the surface of the pellet into a plasma, which explodes off the surface.

The therapeutic dose of theophylline, however, is many times greater than the levels attained from caffeine metabolism.

If the local resistance rates are greater than 10 , a dose of intravenous ceftriaxone is often prescribed.

Well, the surface of the spray coating is actually filled with nanoparticles that form a very rough and craggly surface.

When surface temperature drops, eventually reaching the dew point, atmospheric water vapor condenses to form small droplets on the surface.
