formamide and Sensitivity and Specificity

formamide has been researched along with Sensitivity and Specificity in 21 studies

formimidic acid : A carboximidic acid that is formic acid in which the carbonyl oxygen is replaced by an imino group.
primary carboxamide : A carboxamide resulting from the formal condensation of a carboxylic acid with ammonia; formula RC(=O)NH2.

Sensitivity and Specificity: Binary classification measures to assess test results. Sensitivity or recall rate is the proportion of true positives. Specificity is the probability of correctly determining the absence of a condition. (From Last, Dictionary of Epidemiology, 2d ed)
