When using monofilaments to determine nerve health, the Rapid Threshold Procedure is a method promoted by Connecticut Bioinstruments to quickly find a threshold. It relies on the proper calibration of the monofilaments, including the inability to confound pain and touch sensations.

Is it just one simple blood test to see if are HIV positive?

Your HIV testing experience may vary depending on where you seek services. Standard testing procedure for many HIV testing sites involve a two-step process. Rapid response, oral HIV testing is available in many locations. The test collects a cell sample from the gums and detects antibodies associated with HIV infection. If a rapid response test is reactive for HIV antibodies, a person is considered "preliminarily positive" for HIV infection. After an initial positive, the most common confirmatory tests may be administered orally or by blood draw. Getting tested for HIV is a very sexually responsible behavior. Good luck!

Is there a rapid HIV test?

No. Not in the United States. There are over-the-counter testing kits avialable at some drug stores. The kits are usually expensive and require mailing samples to be processed in a lab. Rapid response tests require training about test delivery, storage and maintenance that would create an issue in a retail setting. It is also recommended to have a medical professional or counselor present when receiving a test result. There are many testing locations that offer free, anonymous rapid response HIV testing. Rapid response tests are extremely accurate and provide results in as little as 20 minutes. If you are not familiar with the resources or are having a hard time finding them in your area, please don't hesitate to follow-up. I would be happy to assist you.


If you were able to artificially alter the membrane permeability of pacemaker cells so that sodium in flux is more rapid what would happen?

threshold is reached more quickly and heart rate would increase


what do we have to do to get a government grant?

There is only one center that is within your threshold it is the Rapid Recovery Institute in Fort Lee NJ, their phone number is 888-338-6948. From what I can tell, whatever the drug, they can get it out of the body.

Is bactometer a rapid testing or traditional testing method?

Technically it is a rapid test method- since it is based on the measurement of an endpoint that typically occurs earlier than the endpoint of a classical micro method, which of course is the visual detection of growth - seen either as turbidty or colonies by the human eye. It does however have some ties to classical methods- it still is growth based.


What causes rapid depolarization phase of a pacemaker cell?

Rapid depolarization happens after the membrane threshold has been reached and Na+ ions start to flow into the cell. As more Na+ ions flood in the cell becomes more and more positive. This causes the voltage gated Na+ channels to open creating a flood of Na+ ions and thus a rapid phase of depolarization. Shortly after this rapid phase K+ ions are released from the cell causing the cell to become more negative closing the Na+ channels and thus repolarizing the cell.


What is the primary product line for Rapid Prototyping Services?

Rapid prototyping is a process where a working model or prototype is developed for the purpose of testing the various product features like design, ideas, features, functionality, performance, and output. This process of development of the working model is quite quick. I had taken help of rapid prototyping service of Iannone3D, which is a New Jersey-based Rapid Prototyping and 3D Printing Service Bureau. Thanks.
