Triple test UK the double test is part of the combined test for prenatal diagnostics. A test of levels of dimeric inhibin A (DIA) is sometimes added to the other three tests, under the name "quadruple test." Other names used include "quad test", "quad screen", or "tetra screen." Inhibin A will be found high in cases of trisomy 21 and low in cases of trisomy 18. Triple test The triple test, also called triple screen, the Kettering test or the Bart's test, is an investigation performed during pregnancy in the second trimester to classify a patient as either high-risk or low-risk for
Double beta decay or double beta decay are predicted to be very long; hence, quadruple beta decay is unlikely to be realized. The eight candidate nuclei for quadruple beta decay include Zr, Xe, and Nd capable of quadruple beta-minus decay, and Xe, Ba, Gd, and Dy capable of quadruple beta-plus decay or electron capture. In theory, quadruple beta decay may be experimentally observable in three of these nuclei, with the most promising candidate being Nd. Double beta decay In nuclear physics, double beta decay is a type of radioactive decay in which two neutrons are simultaneously transformed into two protons, or vice versa,
