Improving the quality of finished products, as well as its provision, associated with costs at all stages of the production process of finished products, in the pre-production and post-production periods. The cost of quality assurance at the stage of the production process occupies a special place in the total cost of quality. Difficulties in estimating the cost of product quality assurance are that there is no experience in determining the production costs of quality assurance of finished products and that the number of influencing factors that must be taken into account in the manufacture of final products of a given level of quality in mass production. Ensuring the quality of products requires significant costs, which over time, given the growing requirements for the quality of finished products, will grow, which determines the need to develop a mechanism to link quality management of finished products with normalized costs to ensure its quality. An article devoted to this little-studied problem and aims to outline theoretical, methodological and practical ways to manage the cost of quality, their coordination in terms of ensuring a given level of quality of finished products. The problem of coordinating (managing) the costs of quality is dictated by the need to include in the case all the reserves and opportunities to improve efficiency and quality, including the ability to correctly calculate, analyze, evaluate and compare costs and results. The purposes of the article, justifying the need for an interdependent system of quality management indicators, is in line with the objectives of resource conservation, a sharp increase in economic efficiency of the production process and improve the quality of products. The scientific problem understood the role as the costs inflicted rocker economic (economic) efficiency mode of operation of the quality management system of finished products, the algorithm definition, calculation methods, detection, calculation, forecasting and control(coordination) costs of product quality.

Objective To develop procedures to ensure consistency of printing quality of digital images, by means of hardcopy quantitative analysis based on a standard image. Materials and Methods Characteristics of mammography DI-ML and general purpose DI-HL films were studied through the QC-Test utilizing different processing techniques in a FujiFilm®-DryPix4000 printer. A software was developed for sensitometric evaluation, generating a digital image including a gray scale and a bar pattern to evaluate contrast and spatial resolution. Results Mammography films showed maximum optical density of 4.11 and general purpose films, 3.22. The digital image was developed with a 33-step wedge scale and a high-contrast bar pattern (1 to 30 lp/cm) for spatial resolution evaluation. Conclusion Mammographic films presented higher values for maximum optical density and contrast resolution as compared with general purpose films. The utilized digital processing technique could only change the image pixels matrix values and did not affect the printing standard. The proposed digital image standard allows greater control of the relationship between pixels values and optical density obtained in the analysis of films quality and printing systems.

Summary Background: To follow up populations exposed to several radiation accidents in the Southern Urals, a cause-of-death registry was established at the Urals Center capturing deaths in the Chelyabinsk, Kurgan and Sverdlovsk region since 1950. Objectives: When registering deaths over such a long time period, quality measures need to be in place to maintain quality and reduce the impact of individual coders as well as quality changes in death certificates. Methods: To ensure the uniformity of coding, a method for semi-automatic coding was developed, which is described here. Briefly, the method is based on a dynamic thesaurus, database-supported coding and parallel coding by two different individuals. Results: A comparison of the proposed method for organizing the coding process with the common procedure of coding showed good agreement, with, at the end of the coding process, 70 – 90% agreement for the three-digit ICD -9 rubrics. Conclusions: The semi-automatic method ensures a sufficiently high quality of coding by at the same time providing an opportunity to reduce the labor intensity inherent in the creation of large-volume cause-of-death registries.

В условиях существующего многообразия автоматизированных систем управления технологическими процессами (АСУТП), возрастающих рисков компьютерных инцидентов, обусловленных развитием информационных технологий, неизменно актуальными являются вопросы повышения качества программного обеспечения (ПО) АСУТП. В настоящей статье на примере АСУТП организаций системы «Транснефть» представлена возможность использования методов статического анализа исходного кода ПО с целью обеспечения информационной безопасности АСУТП. Рассмотрены причины низкого качества ПО и подходы к его повышению. Проанализированы методы анализа исходного кода ПО (статический, динамический, интерактивный), сделан вывод о том, что наиболее перспективной является комбинация трех видов статического анализа: сигнатурного анализа, анализа потока управления, анализа потока данных. Указанная комбинация легла в основу методики выявления ошибок, потенциально опасных конструкций, логических бомб и неиспользуемых переменных в ПО АСУТП, разработанной в рамках научно-исследовательской работы «Создание системы анализа исходного кода программного обеспечения автоматизированных систем управления технологическими процессами». Основным достоинством созданной методики является ее инвариантность по отношению к языкам программирования и разновидностям дефектов. При этом общий алгоритм поиска дефектов остается неизменным: меняются только сигнатуры, правила выявления. With the existing variety of automated process control systems (APCS) and the increasing risks of computer incidents caused by the development of information technology, the issues of improving the quality of the APCS software are invariably topical. This article presents the possibility of using the software source code static analysis methods for ensuring the information security of the APCS using the example of Transneft system entities’ APCS. The reasons for the low quality of software and approaches to its improvement are considered. Methods of software source code analysis (static, dynamic, interactive) are analyzed, and it is concluded that the most promising is a combination of three types of static analysis: signature analysis, control flow analysis, data flow analysis. This combination serves as the basis for the methodology of detecting errors, potentially dangerous structures, logic bombs, and unused variables in the APCS software developed as part of the research work entitled “Creation of a System for Analyzing the Source Code of Automated Process Control System Software”. The main advantage of the created methodology is its invariance with respect to programming languages and types of defects. At the same time, the general defect searching algorithm remains unchanged: only signatures and detection rules are subject to change.

Abstract Food-related laws and regulations have existed since ancient times. Egyptian scrolls prescribed the labeling needed for certain foods. In ancient Athens, beer and wines were inspected for purity and soundness, and the Romans had a well-organized state food control system to protect consumers from fraud or bad produce. In Europe during the Middle Ages, individual countries passed laws concerning the quality and safety of eggs, sausages, cheese, beer, wine, and bread; some of these laws still exist today. But more modern dietary guidelines and food regulations have their origins in the latter half of the 19th century when the first general food laws were adopted and basic food control systems were implemented to monitor compliance. Around this time, science and food chemistry began to provide the tools to determine “purity” of food based primarily on chemical composition and to determine whether it had been adulterated in any way. Since the key chemical components of mammalian milk were first understood, infant formulas have steadily advanced in complexity as manufacturers attempt to close the compositional gap with human breast milk. To verify these compositional innovations and ensure product quality and safety, infant formula has become one of the most regulated foods in the world. The present paper examines the historical development of nutritional alternatives to breastfeeding, focusing on efforts undertaken to ensure the quality and safety from antiquity to present day. The impact of commercial infant formulas on global regulations is addressed, along with the resulting need for harmonized, fit-for-purpose, voluntary consensus standard methods.

Abstract Predictive models are potential tools for assessing changes in a water treatment process and water quality, and to be used as assistance in process control to ensure the production and distribution of high quality drinking water to consumers with lower operation costs. In this work, mathematical variable selection methods were utilized to find the optimal subsets of variables to develop predictive models for the two quality parameters of drinking water. The found variable subsets were evaluated using three modelling methods and comparisons with the expert knowledge-based models were carried out. The study pointed out the importance of expert knowledge and showed that predicting the quality of treated water is possible but finding an optimal subset of input parameters for a model that predicts the precise value of a quality parameter is challenging.

Aim: The complications that arise when performing meta-analysis of datasets from multiple metabolomics studies are addressed with computational methods that ensure data quality, completeness of metadata and accurate interpretation across studies. Results & methodology: This paper presents an integrated system of quality control (QC) methods to assess metabolomics results by evaluating the data acquisition strategies and metabolite identification process when integrating datasets for meta-analysis. An ontology knowledge base and a rule-based system representing the experiment and chemical background information direct the processes involved in data integration and QC verification. A diabetes meta-analysis study using these QC methods finds putative biomarkers that differ between cohorts. Conclusion: The methods presented here ensure the validity of meta-analysis when integrating data from different metabolic profiling studies.

The quality of cargo transportation is one of the most important factors that ensures an increase in the level of competitiveness of modern ATEs, firms. The quality of transport services directly affects the competitiveness of transport organizations, the rational use of modes of transport and modern schemes of cargo delivery, the expansion of foreign trade, and others. And although besides quality, competitiveness includes price, delivery time, performance, warranties, service and a number of other components, according to the results of surveys, quality takes 70% of the importance of all indicators of competitiveness. The consistency of works on the practical application of functional and cost analysis (FCA) for the management of the quality of cargo transportation by rolling stock of road transport is justified in the work. The advantage of using the FCA is the ability to ensure the relationship between the indicators of efficiency of rolling stock use with indicators of the quality of transport service for shippers. As a result of the practical application of this methodology, the management of the modern ATE can determine the objects of innovation activity (that is, those customers where it is necessary to pay more attention to the organization of the transport process and implement a set of measures to improve transport technologies). In the paper a special attention is paid to working up and processing the data. The order, cycle and context of each stage of a practical application of functional and cost analysis to manage the transport industry quality. Thus, in the current conditions of Ukrainian society transformation and economical interaction changes it is necessary to study quality problems caused by the competitive environment availability. Taking into account the all abovementioned, transport service quality management is an urgent call of the time, because this knowledge is vital under the conditions of a market economy and high competition in the market of transport services.

An analysis of methods for determining the number and passenger capacity of rolling stock on urban routes of passenger traffic. Coordinated growth of efficiency and quality of urban passenger transport allows to increase the level of satisfaction of passenger transportation needs, reduce transport stress on the urban passenger transport system, improve the environmental situation, reduce road accidents and the number of road accidents, ensure unprofitable work of carriers. Improving the functioning of the production system of urban passenger transport should ensure a minimum travel time of passengers, regular movement of vehicles along the route, rational use of rolling stock and quality passenger service at minimal cost. Managing the number and passenger capacity of rolling stock on the route is an important task that affects both the quality of passenger transport services and the economic efficiency of carriers. These factors are opposite, ie, by improving the quality of passenger transport services, the carrier is usually forced to reduce the efficiency of vehicles. The tasks of local authorities are to ensure the number and passenger capacity of vehicles on the route and the quality of passenger transport services that would ensure maximum efficiency of the urban passenger transport system, taking into account the interests of all parties, ie carriers, passengers and the community. Despite the presence of a significant amount of research, the task of choosing the number and passenger capacity of buses on regular routes in city traffic, which would ensure an improvement in the quality of services, remains urgent.

To ensure the reliability of calculations of the parameters of the spectra obtained by various methods, a program was created for decomposing the spectra into Gaussian components in manual and automatic modes. Manual mode is used to determine the boundary conditions necessary for determining the global extremum. Next, an automatic mode is launched that provides rapid calculations of the spectrum parameters and determines their metrological characteristics, separating the value of the useful signal from the signals of the components, background and noise. The paper shows examples of separating the chromium signal from the signals of the components located on the right and left, as well as from the background signal and taking into account the noise level, which allows improving the analysis characteristics. Optimization of the program in order to determine the boundary parameters of the search for calculated parameters and its robustness is debugged by creating data similar to the experimental data using the "folding knife" or "BUTSTRAP" method.. Measurement quality is ensured by integrating experimental data with the capabilities of the SPECTRUM program. The SPECTRUM program is used as a database for metrological support of measurements and determination of reliability, expressiveness and cost-effectiveness of measurements. In examples 11 parameters: S1, S2, S3, M1, M2, M3, σ1, σ2, σ3, A, where S2 – the area of the useful signal; S1, S3 square harmful signals; M1, M2, M3 – wavelength signals; σ1, σ2, σ3 – half-width signals; A, B – parameters of background; I – noise level. Useful S2 signals depending on the chromium concentration are the basis for determining the calibration function and determining the metrological characteristics of both the calibration function and the analysis result.

Background Clinical trials are an important research method for improving medical knowledge and patient care. Multiple international and national guidelines stipulate the need for data quality and assurance. Many strategies and interventions are developed to reduce error in trials, including standard operating procedures, personnel training, data monitoring, and design of case report forms. However, guidelines are nonspecific in the nature and extent of necessary methods. Objective This article gathers information about current data quality tools and procedures used within Australian clinical trial sites, with the aim to develop standard data quality monitoring procedures to ensure data integrity. Methods Relevant information about data quality management methods and procedures, error levels, data monitoring, staff training, and development were collected. Staff members from 142 clinical trials listed on the National Health and Medical Research Council (NHMRC) clinical trials Web site were invited to complete a short self-reported semiquantitative anonymous online survey. Results Twenty (14%) clinical trials completed the survey. Results from the survey indicate that procedures to ensure data quality varies among clinical trial sites. Centralized monitoring (65%) was the most common procedure to ensure high-quality data. Ten (50%) trials reported having a data management plan in place and two sites utilized an error acceptance level to minimize discrepancy, set at <5% and 5 to 10%, respectively. The quantity of data variables checked (10–100%), the frequency of visits (once-a-month to annually), and types of variables (100%, critical data or critical and noncritical data audits) for data monitoring varied among respondents. The average time spent on staff training per person was 11.58 hours over a 12-month period and the type of training was diverse. Conclusion Clinical trial sites are implementing ad hoc methods pragmatically to ensure data quality. Findings highlight the necessity for further research into “standard practice” focusing on developing and implementing publicly available data quality monitoring procedures.

Every modern production is faced with the problem of improving the quality of finished products. The relevance of this issue follows from the decisions of the government, the subsequent instructions of the president. The task of improving the quality of goods and products was named among the leading ones aimed at increasing the level of management, accelerating scientific and technological progress, more complete use of production potential, all material, labour and financial resources. The theory and practice of the modern production management system are designed to ensure the search for the most perfect elements of the method of complex analysis and assessment and quality management of finished products manufactured in order to increase the economic efficiency of modern production, to better meet the material and spiritual needs of the Ukrainian people. An attempt is made in the work to improve the system for measuring, analyzing and managing the quality of finished products in order to find ways to improve the quality of finished products, reduce labour costs for controlling the quality of finished products. Improving the quality of finished products is considered as a cumulative element of the method of interrelated influencing factors determining the intensification of the production process. Particular attention in the work is paid to the issues of establishing the relationship between the qualitative properties of the product and the influencing factors that form it, as well as an attempt to identify the influence of the quality of the finished product on the economic performance of the industrial enterprise. Such a task is realized by economic and mathematical modelling of the phenomenon under study using statistical information data on the functioning of the production process in past periods. The specific application of some of the described elements of the method has found its embodiment in the development of models and algorithms for solving individual problems of the quality management system in a functionally developed quality management subsystem of a ship machine-building industrial enterprise and etc.

The research focuses on the problem of acceptability of applicants with the minimal level of the Unified State Exam (the USE) to teacher training programs, and coinage of language teachers with under-developed language competency, the latter being fated to turn insufficient for preparing school students for the USE. In the article the author answers the following two research questions: what level of language competency should be demonstrated by a teacher who works in a Russian regular secondary school; what the initial level of language mastery of applicants of teacher training programmes, measured with the USE and demonstrated with its results, would be adequate for them to be academically and linguistically agile for passing the exam which is known as the Certificate in Advanced English (CAE). The methods of the research included the content analysis of official documents regulating the requirements towards teacher competency and examination procedures and assessment; longitudinal observations on language competency development (330 students were observed throughout six years); comparative analysis of examination results. The outcomes of this research may be of high value to teacher training institutions in terms of the determination of categories of programme applicants who have stronger or weaker chances to graduate as competent (job market relevant) teachers.

IntroductionJunior doctors are working in an increasingly overstretched National Health Service. In 2018, Kettering General Hospital (KGH) was awarded £60 800 of government funds to create high-quality rest facilities and improve junior doctor well-being.MethodsAn audit and survey in KGH identified the structural and functional improvements needed. From November 2019 to June 2020, £47 841.24 was spent on creating new rest facilities. On completion, a postaction review assessed how the changes impacted morale, well-being and quality of patient care.ResultsThe majority of doctors were happy with the new rest areas (60%), a majority felt that they would use the on-call room area (63%) and the renovation improved morale and well-being. There was an increased ability to take breaks. However, the majority of doctors are not exception-reporting missing breaks: 79% (2019), 74% (2020).Conclusions and ImplicationsThis report recommends the maintenance of increased staffing levels and rest facilities during the recovery phase of COVID-19. The remaining £12 958.76 should be directed at sustaining the quality of KGH rest facilities. Lastly, the rate of exception-reporting must be increased through improving awareness, exploring alternative methods and supporting the action when necessary. The continual investment into rest facilities ensures workforce well-being and translates into patient safety.

Industrial Hemp, Cannabis sativa L., is characterized by low content of THC (<0.2%). An edible oil with excellent nutritional proprieties is obtained from cold pressing of hempseed. Since Hempseed oil is not reported in a Regulation yet, in order to ensure quality parameters, it is necessary to optimize standard methods (taken from the Regulation for EVOO). In this work, the standard method of quality parameters (free fatty acidity, peroxide number, and anisidine number) were miniaturized and optimized for Hempseed oil matrix. The miniaturized methods result in being sustainable, in environmental and economical perspectives, by using a smaller amount of chemicals (e.g., reagents, solvents), also reducing waste production and the sample needed in relation to the high cost of the Hempseed oil (60–70 €/L). The standard methods of miniaturization, carried out by using the Central Composite Design, allow for great saving of sample (5.35 g vs. 29 g) and reagents (up to 50%).

AbstractBackground:Biobanking is the process of storing high quality human biospecimens alongside linked clinical data, for research purposes. The aim is to identify novel biomarkers with prognostic or diagnostic significance. However, the challenges implicit in the collection and storage of human tissue for research have curtailed the impact of this technique to date.Aim:This paper aims to summarise the challenges faced by biobanking within the ENT specialty in the UK, and to present protocols used for the routine collection, freezing and storage of tissue specimens at the Royal National Throat, Nose and Ear Hospital. These protocols could be used to guide other ENT departments (in the UK and worldwide) wishing to initiate the routine collection and storage of tissue samples. Their publication could also help to establish basic standards and ensure consistency in ENT tissue storage.Methods:Interviews conducted with industry experts, and a literature review of ‘best practice’ in biobanking.Conclusion:The ENT specialty must stay abreast of progress in human tissue research in order to ensure the best possible management of its patients. Our protocol for the routine banking of ENT tissue at the Royal National Throat, Nose and Ear Hospital could be used as a template for other ENT departments (in the UK and worldwide) to encourage widespread implementation of high quality tissue banking.

Steganalysis is the process of analyzing and predicting the presence of hidden information in images. Steganalysis would be most useful to predict whether the received images contain useful information. However, it is more difficult to predict the hidden information in images which is computationally difficult. In the existing research method, this is resolved by introducing the deep learning approach which attempts to perform steganalysis tasks in effectively. However, this research method does not concentrate the noises present in the images. It might increase the computational overhead where the error cost adjustment would require more iteration. This is resolved in the proposed research technique by introducing the novel research method called Non-Gaussian Noise Aware Auto Encoder Convolutional Neural Network (NGN-AEDNN). Classification technique provides a more flexible way for steganalysis where the multiple features present in the environment would lead to an inaccurate prediction rate. Here, learning accuracy is improved by introducing noise removal techniques before performing a learning task. Non-Gaussian Noise Removal technique is utilized to remove the noises before learning. Also, Gaussian noise removal is applied at every iteration of the neural network to adjust the error rate without the involvement of noisy features. This proposed work can ensure efficient steganalysis by accurate learning task. Matlab has been employed to implement the method by performing simulations from which it is proved that the proposed research technique NGN-AEDNN can ensure the efficient steganalysis outcome with the reduced computational overhead when compared with the existing methods.

Mixed methods research (MMR) integrates quantitative and qualitative research approaches to reach more valid, complete, or refined conclusions. MMR is emerging as a distinct research approach that can be particularly useful for understanding complex phenomena, like international student mobility. While other fields have established frameworks for conducting MMR, no such framework exists for European student mobility researchers. As a first step toward creating a MMR framework, this exploratory study systematically analyzed and assessed the quality of 24 MMR studies within European student mobility research using content analysis, where quality is operationalized as the alignment between the MMR rationales and study designs. Concerns arose for 10 of the 24 sampled articles, illustrating the need to establish frameworks and ensure a shared understanding of MMR. I provide three directions for future research that will inform the creation of MMR frameworks specific to European student mobility research.

The fidelity of an image subjected to digital processing, such as a contour/texture highlighting process or a noise reduction algorithm, can be evaluated based on two types of criteria: objective and subjective, sometimes the two types of criteria being considered together. Subjective criteria are the best tool for evaluating an image when the image obtained at the end of the processing is interpreted by man. The objective criteria are based on the difference, pixel by pixel, between the original and the reconstructed image and ensure a good approximation of the image quality perceived by a human observer. There is also the possibility that in evaluating the fidelity of a remade (reconstructed) image, the pixel-by-pixel differences will be weighted according to the sensitivity of the human visual system. The problem of improving medical images is particularly important in assisted diagnosis, with the aim of providing physicians with information as useful as possible in diagnosing diseases. Given that this information must be available in real time, we proposed a solution for reconstructing the contours in the images that uses a modified Wiener filter in the wavelet domain and a nonlinear cellular network and that is useful both to improve the contrast of its contours and to eliminate noise. In addition to the need to improve imaging, medical applications also need these applications to run in real time, and this need has been the basis for the design of the method described below, based on the modified Wiener filter and nonlinear cellular networks.

A practice of launching new products of mechanical engineering and aerospace engineering into mass production shows that their quality is ensured to a considerable extent at the expense of their improvement after production and operation tests. It results in the considerable losses of time and material resources from the initial stage of design up to launching new products into series production.
Actually the launchings of new products into series production are delayed for some years. It is explained with that up till now at the design-technological development of new products there are used methods and procedures applied for decades and based on obsolete reference data, although by now there are obtained scientific-technical data allowing the support of engineering product quality completely at the stage of design-technological development and manufacturing with minimum possible improvements after factory and operation testing.
To ensure machinery quality during manufacturing it is necessary to observe technological discipline (fulfillment of engineering processes developed), to carry out technological system control and a rapid adjustment in case of possible deviations from allowable values.
The methodology presented for the realization of basic fundamentals will allow increasing quality of engineering and aerospace engineering products in practice and reducing time considerably for design-technological improvement after factory and operation testing.

SynopsisThe quality of care for pregnant women and their babies must be a high priority to ensure the health of future generations. Unique features are the need to deal with at least two ‘patients’, that the process of parturition is usually normal, and that there is a long history of incorporating women's views into definitions of good care. Methods of assessing structure, process and outcome of care are described, and the limited evidence of their efficacy in improving care. High-quality care in the future will require collaboration between women, midwives, family doctors and obstetricians.

As noted by a number of experts in the field of the quality of construction of capital construction objects, at present there are no industry-specific methods for assessing the quality of construction and installation works in construction. The quality assessment and acceptance of capital construction objects is carried out according to the criterion of compliance with the requirements established in the project documentation, the working documentation prepared on its basis and the requirements established in the regulatory documents. It should be noted that the more complex the object, the larger the construction volume, the longer the construction period of the object and the harder it is to achieve full compliance of the object with the established requirements due to the lack of a methodology for choosing organizational decisions, as well as changing regulatory requirements, technological variability, errors.The current situation necessitated the development of an assessment model and the adoption of organizational decisions to ensure the quality of construction. This article highlights and discusses the main factors affecting the quality of organizational decisions. A system for assessing the level of quality assurance of construction is proposed, taking into account the quality of organizational decisions and the main factors cited.

The ultimate object of software development should be to deliver value to all stakeholders. The traditional approach to delivering this value is to ensure that the software developed is of the highest quality. A number of quality models have been proposed to specify or describe what constitutes high quality software. The ISO9126 is one such model and perhaps the most comprehensive. Similarly, there are several methods, frameworks and guidelines for ensuring software quality in either the development or use process or both. Software Quality Management and Risk Management are probably the two most popular methods employed by developers during software development and implementation to deliver quality. In this paper the authors examine whether, and to what extent, the implied value propositions of software products as portrayed by the ISO9126 quality model and the prescribed processes in Software Quality Management and Risk Management, map onto user value perceptions and experiences. An ontology of value, in the form of a value tree, is developed and used to identify and analyse the key value dimensions of the ISO9126 quality model and the Software Quality Management and Risk Management process methods. These are then mapped onto contextualised user value characterisations derived from the extant literature. Differences identified are analysed and discussed and the authors suggest approaches that could narrow the perennial gap between idealised quality product and process models and stakeholder perceptions and actualisations of software value.

The accuracy of positron emission tomography (PET) imaging is hampered by the partial volume effect (PVE), which causes image blurring and sampling. The PVE produces spillover phenomena, making PET analysis difficult. Generally, the PVE values vary based on reconstruction methods and filtering. Thus, selection of the proper reconstruction and filtering method can ensure accurate and high-quality PET images. This study compared the values of factors (recovery coefficient (RC), uniformity, and spillover ratio (SOR)) associated with different reconstruction and post-filtering methods using a mouse image quality phantom (NEMA NU 4), and we present an effective approach for microPET images. The PET images were obtained using a microPET scanner (Inveon, Siemens Medical Solutions, Malvern, PA, USA). PET data were reconstructed and/or post-filtered. For tumors smaller than 3 mm, iterative reconstruction methods provided better image quality. For tumor sizes bigger than 3 mm, reconstruction methods without post-filtering showed better results.

Then the multivariate statistical process control (MSPC) methods for process with single constraint, especially for single non-Gaussian process or nonlinear process are elaborated. As real industrial process data often show strong non-Gaussian and dynamic behaviors, study on monitoring technologies for dynamic non-Gaussian process is of great importance. Finally, some challenges such as non-Gaussian and dynamic process, fault detection and diagnosis as well as new MSPC methods are indicated.

Meat quality parameters are affected by a complex series of interacting chemical, biochemical, physical, and physiological components that determine not only the suitability for consumption and the conditions for further processing and storage but also consumer acceptability. Deep understanding and careful manipulation of these intrinsic and extrinsic factors have to be taken in account to ensure high quality of meat, with better technological properties and increased safety for consumers. Among meat quality characteristics, meat tenderness has been perceived as the most important factor governing consumer acceptability. Therefore, being able to early predict meat texture and other related parameters in order to guarantee consistent eating quality to the final consumer is one of the most sought-after goals in the meat industry. Accurate measurements of both the biochemical and mechanical characteristics that underpin muscle and its transformation into meat are key factors to an improved understanding of meat quality, but also this early-stage measurements may be useful to develop methods to predict final meat texture. It is the goal of this review to present the available research literature on the historical and contemporary analyses that could be applied in early postmortem stages (pre-rigor and rigor) to determine the biochemical and physical characteristics of the meat that can potentially impact the eating quality.

During seed extraction in fleshy fruits, some procedures are necessary to ensure seed quality and minimize deterioration and microorganism activity; also seeds extracted under moist conditions need special care when drying. The objective of this study was to evaluate the physiological quality of eggplant seeds submitted to different extraction and drying methods. In the first study, whole eggplant fruits were mechanically crushed and then fermented for 0, 24 and 48 hours, with and without applying hydrochloric acid during seed extraction. In the second study, seeds were extracted in a pepper peeler and then immediately washed in water and submitted to the following drying methods: Sun/24 h; Sun/48 h; 32 °C/24 h; 32 °C/48 h; 38 °C/24 h; 38 °C/48 h; Sun/24 h + 32 °C/24 h; Sun/24 h + 38 °C/24 h e 32 °C/24 h + 38 °C/24 h. The treatment efficiency of both experiments was evaluated from the following tests: seed weight, germination, first count, accelerated aging and seedling emergence. The results suggest that fermentation and applying hydrochloric acid to pulp/seed reduce the physiological seed quality. All drying methods reduced the seed moisture content permitting adequate storage and maintenance of seed physiological quality.

251 Background: Measuring the impact of the patient navigator has presented an on-going challenge since the inception of patient navigation in 1990. The Oncology Navigation team initially relied upon a spreadsheet to record data later utilized to evaluate the quality of the program however the spreadsheet did not meet the needs of the navigators nor of those who attempted to make sense of the voluminous data collected. This abstract offers an overview of the creation and implementation of a Navigation App to record the navigation workflow-ensuring quality and consistency in practice. Methods: The Navigation App is a web-based platform serving as the framework into which navigation data is entered. The customized version allows the collection of data specific to the metrics of interest to navigation including: care coordination, triage, reinforcement of the care plan and appointment scheduling. The App was designed as a means of evaluating the quality of the navigation process but also serves as a useful tool in organizing the navigators’ daily workflow. Results: The creation and implementation of a Navigation App has illuminated the complexity of the role of the navigator by recording both quantitative and qualitative data. The App allows the navigators to collect “real-time” data detailing their daily workflow with patients, families and providers. The navigators were quickly able master the App and significantly reduce the time needed to record data from hours to minutes each month. Entering data into the App concurrently also allows for instantaneous evaluation of productivity and quality. Finally, the App has proved to be a valuable tool for navigators in organizing their daily workflow and in prioritizing patient and provider needs. Conclusions: A web-based Navigation App can serve as an invaluable tool in driving quality patient navigation. The App not only serves as a means of recording data but also as an organizational tool to maximize productivity, quality and consistency of navigation. Utilizing a web-based application as opposed to a spreadsheet allows both navigators and administrators to track workflows in “real time” to ensure the highest quality of service to cancer patients, families and providers.

Drug products may be switched from precription (Rx) to over-the-counter (OTC) status if labeling can be written that ensures that the label information is comprehensible to ordinary consumers, including persons with low literacy ability, under normal conditions of purchase and use. The Food and Drug Administration has been working with sponsors to develop methods to test consumer comprehension of proposed OTC product labels. The authors discuss several conceptual and operational elements of comprehension testing, focusing on the goals, methods, appropriate target audience, and testing environment. The authors also examine areas in need of further research and debate. As more complex products are considered for OTC status, it is even more important to ensure that OTC labels are comprehensible. As understanding and the validity of methods to evaluate consumer comprehension improve, so should the quality of labels offered to consumers.

This form was initiated in EEC since 1985 and Czechoslovakia was prepared to ensure authorized grading assessment methods slaughter-pigs. Since March 2004 the Czech Republic is a member state of the European Union with harmonized legislation similir to EU legislature. New instruments as FOM, Ultra-FOM, ZP and HGP 4 were purchased. There SEUROP system were established. Submitted study observes quality development slaughtering pigs since the nineties to present. Pork quality was increased more rapidly than expected and in 2007 was reached the estimated level in 2010. Examples of grading methods in monitored periods is mentioned and particular effects commented.

Cheap Efficient Nursery Tank System - Recirculating Aquaculture System (CENTS-RAS) is an alternative hatchery system used in most places in Tanjung Demong Terengganu. Waste trap (Wastrap) is a system on CENTS-RAS to dispose of sewage and needs to be opened according to schedule to ensure water quality is at a good level. This requires employees to open the wastrap manually and in an orderly manner. Problems occur when the frequency does not occur regularly. Design and construction smart wastewater controlled by Programmable Logic Controller (PLC) to output electrical actuator ball valve fit in inlet water and wastrap installed in CENTS-RAS for maintaining good water quality. Disposal of dirty water as well as conversion with clean livestock water is systematically controlled based on the programmed time. Previously using manual methods for wastrap opening, fish survival and growth probably limit the production potential is around 78% -85%. After construction with smart system automatically regular scheduling with 4 time interval methods that have been set will work 24 hours a day for 50 days to ensure the conversion rate and life is high. Effectiveness water quality control were higher by implementing new design using automated methods.
