The relationship among the lignite quality parameters has been investigated using a response method that is the logistic regression method. The analysis determines the effect of multiple predictor variables such as moisture, ash and sulphur presented simultaneously to predict membership of the two calorific value categories. By this way, a reliable binary response regression structure was constructed considering all the lignite fields in Turkey. Both the experiments on identifying the influential measurements and the measure of goodness of fit indicated that the overall model has a big capability to exhibit the relationship among the parameters of the Turkish lignite.展开更多

Pollutants due to the presence of toxic metals in environment not only enter the body by breading, water, and foodstuff accumulates in hair, but they could be adsorbed directly on the hair from environment. In order to remove adsorbed elements and thus determine the internally bound elements correctly, hair sample must be washed. In the present work, we propose uncertainty estimation for the analytical results that are obtained from determination of cadmium, lead, copper, iron, manganese and nickel in human hair by flame and electrothermal atomic absorption spectrometry （FAAS and ETAAS）. To estimate the uncertainty of analytical result obtained, two types of bias are calculated in the assessment of trueness： a proportional bias and a constant bias. Nested design was applied for calculating proportional bias and Youden method to calculate the constant bias. The results we obtained for proportional bias are calculated from spiked samples. In this case, the concentration found is plotted against the concentration added and the slop of standard addition curve is an estimate of the method recovery. Estimated method of average recovery in human hair is： （1.019 ±0.026）, （0.918 ±0.014）, （1.073±0.016）, （1.0597± 0.017）, （1.073± 0.020） and （0.934± 0.117） for Cd, Pb, Mn, Ni, Fe and Cu respectively.展开更多
