  1. Merthiolate-Iodine-Formaldehyde

    Merthiolate Iodine Formaldehyde MIF is a solution used in biomedical laboratories for concentration of stool sample s prior to microscopy microscopic investigation for parasite s. Concentration of stool is necessary in order to raise sensitivity of microscopy, as in non concentrated samples the likelihood of finding equivalents of actually present parasites is too low. MIF enables separation of different strata of stool matter, and sedimentation of stool particles that contain parasites usually parasite eggs . After application of MIF, usually centrifuge centrifugation is used for acceleration of sedimentation. The term Merthiolate indicates presence of thiomersal in the solution. Due to the hazardous qualities of thiomersal, it is no longer regularly added to MIF solutions any more, although the abbreviation MIF is still used for the solution. Thiomersal may nevertheless be added if its preservative qualities are particularly needed, for example if stool samples have to be preserved over longer time periods for example for teaching samples . ref name Dispensary Handbook Department of Infectious Diseases and Tropical Medicine.

  1. Counter turn

    Image Counter.GIF thumb Counter turn diagram A counter turn is a kind of one foot turn in figure skating . Unlike 3 turn three turns and bracket turn brackets , where the entry and exit edges follow the same curve, in a counter the entry and exit are on opposite curves. When executing a counter, the skater turns outward to the curve of the entry edge, and exits on a curve in the same sense as the turn. Another way to look at it is that a counter is similar to the entry of a bracket turn combined with the exit of a three turn. The opposite combination is called a rocker turn . ref http sk8stuff.com f recog recog turns 1 foot.htm ref While counters are sometimes used to perform a simple change of direction, they more commonly appear in step sequences and in compulsory dances in ice dancing .
