  2. Erythrocyte sedimentation rate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Erythrocyte_sedimentation_rate

    The widely used [21] rule calculating normal maximum ESR values in adults (98% confidence limit) is given by a formula devised in 1983 from a study of ≈1000 individuals over the age of 20: [22] The normal values of ESR in men is age (in years) divided by 2; for women, the normal value is age (in years) plus 10, divided by 2.

  3. Orbital tuning - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Orbital_tuning

    Long records of sedimentation or climate should record such variations. However, such records often have poorly constrained age scales. As a result, scientists will sometimes adjust the timing of the features in their samples to match the predictions of orbital theory in the hopes of improving the accuracy of their data. [1]

  4. Svedberg - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Svedberg

    A laboratory ultracentrifuge. In chemistry, a Svedberg unit or svedberg (symbol S, sometimes Sv [a]) is a non-SI metric unit for sedimentation coefficients.The Svedberg unit offers a measure of a particle's size indirectly based on its sedimentation rate under acceleration (i.e. how fast a particle of given size and shape settles out of suspension). [1]

  5. Erythrocyte aggregation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Erythrocyte_aggregation

    Erythrocyte aggregation is the main determinant of blood viscosity at low shear rate. Rouleaux formation also determines Erythrocyte sedimentation rate which is a non-specific indicator of the presence of disease. [6] Influence of erythrocyte aggregation on in vivo blood flow is still a controversial issue. [7]

  6. Sedimentation rate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sedimentation_rate

    Sedimentation rate may refer to: Sedimentation rate of particles in a liquid, described by Stokes' law; Erythrocyte sedimentation rate, a medical test for inflammation;

  7. Samarium–neodymium dating - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Samarium–neodymium_dating

    Samarium has seven naturally occurring isotopes, and neodymium has seven. The two elements are joined in a parent–daughter relationship by the alpha decay of parent 147 Sm to radiogenic daughter 143 Nd with a half-life of 1.066(5) × 10 11 years and by the alpha decay of 146 Sm (an almost-extinct radionuclide with a half-life of 9.20(26) × 10 7 years [2] [a]) to produce 142 Nd.

    Russell's viper, Daboia russelii Dilute Russell's viper venom time (dRVVT) is a laboratory test often used for detection of lupus anticoagulant (LA). It is an assessment of the time for blood to clot in the presence of a diluted amount of venom from Russell's viper (Daboia russelii), a highly venomous snake native to the Indian subcontinent and named after the herpetologist Patrick Russell.
