Simultaneous determination of norfloxacin and sulfadiazine by first-derivative spectrophotometry [PDF]
In the present study, the development and validation of a UV-Vis spectrophotometry technique are described, applying the first derivative for the simultaneous determination and quantification of norfloxacin (NF) and sulfadiazine (SDZ).

On the Limitations of Model Stealing with Uncertainty Quantification Models
Model stealing aims at inferring a victim model's functionality at a fraction of the original training cost. While the goal is clear, in practice the model's architecture, weight dimension, and original training data can not be determined exactly, leading to mutual uncertainty during stealing.

The quantification of midwifery research: Limiting midwifery knowledge
AbstractAs two academics researching in the area of maternal health, we are increasingly concerned with what we see as a positivist turn in midwifery research. In this paper, we examine this idea of the quantification of midwifery research, using as an example the current esteem given to the systematic literature review, and its creep into other ...

Measurement of methionine level with the LC-ESI-MS/MS method in schizophrenic patients [PDF]
The purpose of this study was to evaluate plasma methionine levels by using liquid chromatography electrospray ionization-tandem mass spectroscopy (LC-ESI-MS/MS) in schizophrenic patients.

Theoretical limitations of quantification for noncompetitive sandwich immunoassays [PDF]
Immunoassays exploit the highly selective interaction between antibodies and antigens to provide a vital method for biomolecule detection at low concentrations. Developers and practitioners of immunoassays have long known that non-specific binding often restricts immunoassay limits of quantification (LOQs). Aside from non-specific binding, most efforts

Limits to the quantification of local climate change [PDF]
We demonstrate how the fundamental timescales of anthropogenic climate change limit the identification of societally relevant aspects of changes in precipitation. We show that it is nevertheless possible to extract, solely from observations, some confident quantified assessments of change at certain thresholds and locations. Maps of such changes, for a

Diffraction-limited molecular cluster quantification with Bayesian nonparametrics [PDF]
Abstract Life’s fundamental processes involve multiple molecules operating in close proximity within cells. To probe the composition and kinetics of molecular clusters confined within small (diffraction-limited) regions, experiments often report on the total fluorescence intensity simultaneously emitted from labeled molecules confined ...

Quantification – Affordances and Limits
We live in a world awash in numbers. Tables, graphs, charts, Fitbit readouts, spreadsheets that overflow our screens no matter how large, economic forecasts, climate modeling, weather predictions, journal impact factors, H-indices, and the list could go on and on, still barely scratching the surface.
