Normally, levels of AST in the blood are low. Very high levels of AST (more than 10 times normal) are usually due to acute hepatitis, sometimes due to a viral infection. With acute hepatitis, AST levels usually stay high for about 1-2 months but can take as long as 3-6 months to return to normal.
A Baltimore mechanic named Charles Moncky invented the monkey wrench around 1858. The tool was originally named by using a âpurposeful misspellingâ of its inventorâs name, according to the Ferris State University Jim Crow Museum.
A type like this is commonly known as a âcombinationâ spanners. A wrench (or spanner outside of North America) is a tool used to provide grip and mechanical advantage in applying torque to turn objectsâusually rotary fasteners, such as nuts and boltsâor keep them from turning. In Commonwealth English (excluding Canada), spanner is the standard term.
