Cause of the Hum. In the U.S. electrical transformers the hum that occurs happens at a frequency of 120 Hz. When vibrations reach this level of repetition, the metal used to construct the transformer internal core begins to give off a noise. The vibration, or hum, is a reaction by the transformer metal to the presence of a magnetic field created as electricity passes through. This process is called magnetostriction.
A high-sensitivity CRP (hs-CRP) test measures low levels of CRP using laser nephelometry. The test gives results in 25 minutes with a sensitivity down to 0.04 mg/L.RP is synthesized by the liver in response to factors released by macrophages and fat cells (adipocytes). It is a member of the pentraxin family of proteins. It is not related to C-peptide (insulin) or protein C (blood coagulation).
About Our C-Reactive Protein (CRP), High Sensitivity Test. The C-Reactive Protein (CRP), High Sensitivity, Test is a general cardiac risk assessment. The correlation between c-reactive protein levels and heart health provides insight into an individual's stroke and heart attack risk despite normal or average cholesterol levels. This test is often ordered to assess heart attack and/or stroke risks in individuals.
