Institutional expert interview: skeletal age, adult pelvic morphology and long-bone estimation of stature.
Institutional identification method: post-mortem and ante-mortem records, dental and genetic identification, and reconciliation.
Transcribed primary 1866 report. Discussion of tar acids and sulphurous acid is historical evidence of contemporary evaluation; animal-disease experiments are not treated as proof for every human infection.
Glasgow Medical Journal 1(6), October 1866, pp.244–246. Primary instructions on soiled linen, discharge contamination and period disinfectants; alkaline-decomposition theory explicitly distinguished from current knowledge.
NIOSH Manual of Analytical Methods, fifth edition, method 6016. Modern acid-treated sorbent and ion-chromatographic analytical comparison.
NIOSH method 0500, Issue 2, 15 August 1994. Modern gravimetric measurement, controlled filter handling and field blanks; no claim that its specified occupational range detects all hospital bioaerosols.
London, Longman, Brown, Green and Longmans, 1855. Introduction and “Bread, and its Adulterations”, including p.143: observed samples must be distinguished from general allegations.
Institutional chemical fact sheet. Cited passage: Chemical Fact Sheets, hardness, printed p. 377, naturally low mineral content of rainwater and the soap-reaction description. Used to corroborate chemistry and qualify the historical generalization, not to supply a numerical health threshold.
Institutional guidance from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. Cited Overview and Exposure sections: plumbing sources, corrosion, water chemistry and contact conditions. No modern regulatory provision is used as an 1865 rule.
Institutional source-water guidance. Cited Contaminants That Can Affect Drinking Water, Nutrients: sources of nitrate. The solution uses the source account, not the page's modern legal limit.
Institutional account of groundwater and surface-water contamination, including nutrients and pathogens. Cited sections: Protect Your Drinking Water Well, Protect Your Local Surface Water and frequent questions on water quality.
Pocket Guide to Chemical Hazards: properties, gas density, symptoms and target organs. No background-atmosphere value or occupational numerical limit is imported into the historical answer.
Present US regulation 29 CFR 1910.146, cited solely as a technical comparison for atmosphere testing, ventilation and rescue. Not represented as English law in 1865.
Original case-record investigation published in 2013, pp.2498–2501, doi:10.4045/tidsskr.13.0898. Full title begins “The child has lived and breathed.” Discusses historical theory, decomposition and actual use of flotation tests.
International Journal of Legal Medicine 127(2), 2013, pp.447–451; doi:10.1007/s00414-012-0727-1. Primary prospective study abstract: four false negatives despite reported prior life. No universal accuracy guarantee is inferred.

Pinned article: Introduction to the OurBigBook Project

Welcome to the OurBigBook Project! Our goal is to create the perfect publishing platform for STEM subjects, and get university-level students to write the best free STEM tutorials ever.
Everyone is welcome to create an account and play with the site: ourbigbook.com/go/register. We belive that students themselves can write amazing tutorials, but teachers are welcome too. You can write about anything you want, it doesn't have to be STEM or even educational. Silly test content is very welcome and you won't be penalized in any way. Just keep it legal!
We have two killer features:
  1. topics: topics group articles by different users with the same title, e.g. here is the topic for the "Fundamental Theorem of Calculus" ourbigbook.com/go/topic/fundamental-theorem-of-calculus
    Articles of different users are sorted by upvote within each article page. This feature is a bit like:
    • a Wikipedia where each user can have their own version of each article
    • a Q&A website like Stack Overflow, where multiple people can give their views on a given topic, and the best ones are sorted by upvote. Except you don't need to wait for someone to ask first, and any topic goes, no matter how narrow or broad
    This feature makes it possible for readers to find better explanations of any topic created by other writers. And it allows writers to create an explanation in a place that readers might actually find it.

  2. local editing: you can store all your personal knowledge base content locally in a plaintext markup format that can be edited locally and published either:
    This way you can be sure that even if OurBigBook.com were to go down one day (which we have no plans to do as it is quite cheap to host!), your content will still be perfectly readable as a static site.
    Figure 5. . You can also edit articles on the Web editor without installing anything locally.

  4. Infinitely deep tables of contents:
