Roundness is calculated from a large number of points collected from the profiles of the parts. According to the Guide to the Expression of Uncertainty in Measta- meat (GUM), all measurement results must have a stated uncertainty associated the titan. However, no CMMs give the uncertainty value of the roundness, because no suitable measrement uncertainty calculation procedure exists. In the case of roundness raeasurement in coordinate metrology, this paper suggests the algorithms for the calculation of the measurement uncertainty of the roudness deviation based on the two mainly used association criteria, LSC and MZC. The calculation of the sensitivity coefficients for the uncertainty calculatiion can be done by autnatic differentiation, in order to avoid introducing additional emars by the traditional difference quotient approxima- tions. The proposed methods are exact and need input data only as the nrasured coordinates of the data points and their associated un- certainties.展开更多

The assay is based on a β-1actamase-catalyzed reaction, in which the yellow substrate nitrocefin (λmax=390 nm) is converted to a red product (λmax=486 nm). Since CA can irreversibly inhibit β-1actamase activity, the level of CA in a sample can be measured as a function of the A390]A486 ratio in the assay mixture. The sensitivity and detection window of the assay were determined to be 50 μg L -1 and 50 μg L to 10 mg L-1, respectively. The reliability of the assay was confirmed by comparing assay results with those obtained by HPLC. The assay was used to screen a pool of 65 S. clavuligerus mutants and was reliable for identifying CA over-producing mutants. Therefore, the assay saves time and labor in large-scale mutant screening and evaluation tasks. The detection window and the reliability of this assay are markedly better than those of previously reported CA assays. This assay method is suitable for high throughput screening of microbial samples and allows direct visual observation of CA levels on agar plates.展开更多

It is necessary to develop sensitive and rapid phage detection methods for the early detection of phage contamination. In the present work, a real-time, rapid, specific and quantitative phage T4 detection method based on surface plasmon resonance (SPR) technique has been in- troduced. Escherichia coli was immobilized onto the preformed MPA self-assembled monolayer (SAM) through the widely used EDC/NHS cross-linking reaction as the recognition element. The bacteria immobilization was verified efficiently through the electrochemical measurements and fluorescence microscopy observations. The specific adsorption was much stronger than the non-specific adsorption of phage T4 binding to the biosensor surface modified by E. coli, and the latter could be neglected. The detection sensitivity reached 1×10^7 PFU/mL within 10 min. Within the experimental phage concentrations, the linear cor- relation between the SPR response and the phage concentration was good. The results suggest that the SPR technique is a po- tentially powerful tool for the phage or other virus detections, as a label-free, real-time, and rapid method.展开更多
