North American blastomycosis see North American blastomycosis. North American cattle tick see boophilusannulatus. and U.K. distribution agreement with Secomam, Domont Cedex, France. The flagship product is the PASTEL UV Test Analyzer, which measures six different water-quality parameters from a single sample in just one minute. Developed by Secomam and a team of expert scientists, the PASTEL UV Analyzer has demonstrated reliable, reproducible and cost-effective results in a number of field applications including the testing of natural waters, industrial and municipal wastewater streams, and drinking water drinking water supply of water available to animals for drinking supplied via nipples, in troughs, dams, ponds and larger natural water sources; an insufficient supply leads to dehydration; it can be the source of infection, e.g. leptospirosis, salmonellosis, or of poisoning, e.g. . Organic matter, suspended solids and nitrates contained in water and effluent each possesses a specific spectrum "signature" in the UV region. The PASTEL UV uses this UV signature of the pollutants or specific components in a sample to determine the biological oxygen demand (BOD BOD: see sewerage. ), chemical oxygen demand (COD), total organic carbon (TOC), total suspended solids Total suspended solids is a water quality measurement usually abbreviated TSS. This parameter was at one time called non-filterable residue (NFR), a term that refers to the identical measurement: the dry-weight of particles trapped by a filter, typically of a (TSS See ITU. ), and nitrates and anionic an·i·on n. A negatively charged ion, especially the ion that migrates to an anode in electrolysis. [From Greek, neuter present participle of anienai, to go up : ana-, ana- surfactants.
