Lowers Recommended Lead-Level Limits in Children. For the first time in 20 years, federal health authorities have lowered the recommended limit for lead exposure in young children, which they say could add 200,000 children to those believed to have unsafe lead levels in their blood.
Electrical Units of Measure. The standard SI units used for the measurement of voltage, current and resistance are the Volt [ V ], Ampere [ A ] and Ohm [ Ï ] respectively.
Units of Measurement. Electrical Conductivity is the ability of a solution to transfer (conduct) electric current. It is the reciprocal of electrical resistivity (ohms). Therefore conductivity is used to measure the concentration of dissolved solids which have been ionized in a polar solution such as water. The unit of measurement commonly used is one millionth of a Siemen per centimeter (micro-Siemens per centimeter or S/cm).
