    The conversion factor is 10 8 maxwell per weber, since flux is the integral of field over an area, area having the units of the square of distance, thus 10 4 G/T (magnetic field conversion factor) times the square of 10 2 cm/m (linear distance conversion factor). 10 8 Mx/Wb = 10 4 G/T × (10 2 cm/m) 2.

    The sensitivity of the paper is also limited to a detection threshold of 100–200 mg/L while most measurements of "MLF stability" target a malic level of less than 0.03 g/L (30 mg/L). [ 5 ] The enzymatic method allows for a quantitative measurement of both malic and lactic acids, but requires the expense of reagent kits and a spectrophotometer ...
