sensitivity threshold

By improving each of these factors, the overall allergen load can move below the sensitivity threshold.

They generally indicate on contact with an energized object, if the potential difference is above the sensitivity threshold of the device.

The auditory sensitivity thresholds have been measured behaviorally for one individual young female Indian elephant.

People with food sensitivities have different sensitivity thresholds, and so more sensitive people will react to much smaller amounts of the substance.

Repeat until the algorithm has converged (that is, the coefficients' change between two iterations is no more than , the given sensitivity threshold) :

Though the tuning curves of these cells are identical, the sensitivity thresholds differ, allowing for sound localization and a wider range of sensitivity to sound.

To determine auditory sensitivity thresholds, a certain frequency of sound is presented at various intensities to see at which intensity the stimulus ceases to evoke a response.

The problem was that the singularity envelope of the anomaly registered so close to the sensitivity threshold of the probe's scanning equipment that there was legitimate reason to doubt the existence of the anomaly.

They were designed to have a sensitivity threshold that would prevent them from being triggered by a gust of wind or a scampering squirrel; the banging of the enormous canine was far above that threshold.

In one hour's time the water in the glass was teeming with cyborg-bacteria, while the level of helium in the air inside the box had risen, by a very small amount, at the sensitivity threshold of our instruments, but it did rise, all right.

Because of the large value of R, the total resistance is mainly determined by R. The dynamic range of the photoresistor with respect to illumination is equal to the ratio of the critical illumination Φ to the sensitivity threshold Φ.

In early experiments with infrasound sensitivity in pigeons, surgical removal of the calumella, a bone that links the tympanic membrane to the inner ear, in each ear severely reduced the ability to respond to infrasound, increasing the sensitivity threshold by about 50dB.

Thus exclusion of single foods does not necessarily identify the chemical responsible as several chemicals can be present in a food, the patient may be sensitive to multiple food chemicals and reaction more likely to occur when foods containing the triggering substance are eaten in a combined quantity that exceeds the patient's sensitivity thresholds.
