Improved Metrological Traceability of Particle Size Values Measured with Line-Start Incremental Centrifugal Liquid Sedimentation.

certified Stokes diameter and density value must come with a realistic measurement uncertainty and with a traceability statement. As is the case for several other techniques, the calibrants do not always come ...

Validation of a particle tracking analysis method for the size determination of nano- and microparticles.

recommendations proposed by EURACHEM. A model for measurement uncertainty estimation following the principles described in ISO / IEC Guide 98-3 was used for quantifying random and systematic variations. For nominal ...

Characterization of two recombinant HVT-IBD vaccines by VP2 insert detection and cell-mediated immunity after vaccination of specific pathogen-free chickens.

5 weeks. CMI was detected by measuring chicken interferon-gamma after ex vivo antigenic stimulation of splenocytes. Moreover, our results showed that the enzyme-linked immunospot approach is more sensitive ...
