The Unified Soil ClassificationSystem USCS is a soil classificationsystem used in engineering and geology to describe the Texture geology texture and Particle size grain size of a soil .

For example, GW GM corresponds to well graded gravel with silt . If the soil has more than 15 by weight retained on a 4 sieve R sub 4 sub 15 , there is a significant amount of gravel, and the suffix with gravel may be added to the group name, but the group symbol does not change. For example, SP SM could refer to poorly graded SAND with silt or poorly graded SAND with silt and gravel.

The fundamental basis for the BCS was established by Dr. Gordon Amidon who was presented with a Distinguished Science Award at the August 2006 International Pharmaceutical Federation FIP congress in Salvador, Brazil. Fact date February 2007 This system restricts the prediction using the parameters solubility and intestinal permeability . The solubility classification is based on a United States Pharmacopoeia USP aperture. The intestinal permeability classification is based on a comparison to the Route of administration intravenous injection . All those factors are highly important, since 85 of the most sold drugs in the USA and Europe are route of administration orally administered . According to the Biopharmaceutics ClassificationSystem, drug substances are classified as follows Class I high intestinal permeability permeability , high solubility Example metoprolol Those compounds are well absorbed and their absorption rate is usually higher than excretion. Class II high permeability, low solubility Example glibenclamide The bioavailability of those products is limited by their solvation rate. A correlation between the in vivo bioavailability and the in vitro solvation can be found. Class III low permeability, high solubility Example cimetidine The absorption is limited by the permeation rate but the drug is solvated very fast. If the formulation does not change the permeability or gastro intestinal duration time, then class I criteria can be applied.

The American system is designed so that surface tillage cannot result in a change in classification. Canada s first independent taxonomic system of soil classification was introduced in 1955.

It is intended that NAPCS will be used throughout the statistics statistical community to coordinate the collection, tabulation, and analysis of data on the value of products produced by both goods and services producing industries and on the prices charged for those products.

The International Red Cross wound classificationsystem is a system whereby certain features of a wound are scored the size of the skin wound s whether there is a cavity, fracture or vital structure injured the presence or absence of metallic foreign bodies . A numerical value is given to each feature E, X, C, F, V, and M . The scores can later be graded according to severity and typed according to the structures injured. This scoring system is intended for quick and easy use in the field. Wounds are scored after surgery or initial assessment. E Entry centimetres. Estimate the maximum diameter of the entry. X eXit centimetres. Estimate the maximum diameter of the exit X 0 if no exit . C Cavity Can the cavity of the wound take 2 fingers before surgery? No C 0, Yes C 1. This may be obvious before operation or only established after skin incision. For chest and abdominal wounds it refers to the wound of the chest or abdominal wall . F Fracture No fracture F 0. Simple fracture, hole or insignificant comminution F 1. Clinically significant comminution F 2. V Vital structure Are brain , viscera breach of dura mater dura , pleura or peritoneum or major vessels injured? No V 0. Yes V 1. M Metallic body Bullet or fragments visible on X ray . None M 0. One metallic body M 1. Multiple metallic bodies M 2. The wound classificationsystem has been criticised on the basis that it fails to account for the synergistic effect of combined arms employment on the battlefield. It erroneously assumes that each soldier will be injured or killed by only one type of weapon. The classification is typically found on hospital Trauma History and Examination Record forms and is used for classification of penetrating injuries on presenting patients.
