This study investigated the electromechanical response of smart ultra-high-performance concretes (smart UHPCs), containing fine steel slag aggregates (FSSAs) and steel fibers as functional fillers, under external loads corresponding to different measurement methods. Regardless of different measurement methods of electrical resistance, the smart UHPCs under compression showed a clear reduction in their electrical resistivity. However, under tension, their electrical resistivity measured from direct current (DC) measurement decreased, whereas that from alternating current (AC) measurement increased. This was because the electrical resistivity, from DC measurement, of smart UHPCs was primarily dependent on fiber crack bridging, whereas that from AC measurement was dependent on tunneling effects.

Abstract There is a principal need for more precise methodology with regard to the determination of occupational dermal exposure. The goal of the Systematic analysis of Dermal Exposure to hazardous chemical Agents at the workplace project was therefore to generate scientific knowledge to improve and standardize measurement methods for dermal exposure to chemicals at the workplace. In addition, the comparability of different measurement methods was investigated. Different methods (body sampling by means of coveralls and patches, hand sampling by means of gloves and washing, and head sampling by means of headbands and wiping) were compared. Volunteers repeatedly performed a selection of tasks under standardized conditions in test chambers to increase the reproducibility and decrease variability. The selected tasks were pouring, rolling, spraying, and handling of objects immersed in liquid formulations, as well as dumping and handling objects contaminated with powder. For the chemical analysis, the surrogate test substance Tinopal SWN was analyzed by means of a high-performance liquid chromatographic method using a fluorescence detector. Tinopal SWN was either applied as a solid product in its pure form, or as a low and high viscosity liquid containing Tinopal SWN in dissolved form. To compare the sampling methods with patches and coveralls, the exposure values as measured on the patches were extrapolated to the surface areas of the respective parts of the coverall. Based on this extrapolation approach, using the patch method resulted in somewhat higher exposure values compared to using a coverall for all exposure situations, but the differences were only statistically significant in case of the liquid exposure situations. Using gloves resulted in significantly higher exposure values compared to hand wash for handling immersed objects, rolling, and handling contaminated objects, and slightly higher (not significant) exposure values during pouring and spraying. In the same context, applying wipe sampling resulted in higher exposure values than using a headband, which was at least partly due to extrapolation of the wipe results to the surface area of the headband. No ‘golden standard’ with regard to a preferred measurement method for dermal exposure could be identified from the methods as investigated in the current study.

Caffeine is a xanthine alkaloid compound found in Robusta sp and Theobroma cacao L. The caffeine extract was obtained by evaporating CHCl3 using a rotary evaporator and determine its content using iodometry, UV-Vis spectrophotometry and High Performance Liquid Chromatography, then validated by measurement methods. The iodometric caffeine content in Theobroma cacao L is 900 mg/kg while UV-Vis spectrophotometry is 4,000 mg/kg, and for HPLC in Robusta sp is 19,475 mg/kg. The iodometry performance gives the linearity value, R2 of 0.9791. The precision values at 5.0 mg/L and 15.0 mg/L are 4.6% and 8.3%. Accuracy for 5.0; 10.0; and 15.0 mg/L are 106%, 100% and 94% respectively. The performance of UV-Vis spectrophotometry gives linearity value, R2 of 0.9948. The precision value at 1.0 mg/L and 6.0 mg/L gives the variance coefficient value of 4.2% and 1.2%, while the accuracy at 1.0 mg/L and 6.0 mg/L are 99% and 101%.
