It’s a coincidence that this word that means “changeable” in chemical terms is also a model of changeability of meaning for words in general (though probably nobody called it “meta” in the 16th century). And the meaning “changeability” is what took hold for this term, overtaking “...

There are important advantages to preparing the vaginal environment for coitus both in terms of lubrication, regulating pH and maintaining an antibacterial milieu. It therefore seems likely that this pheromonally mediated vaginal secretory response will be seen in other species. What is not clear is ...
In practical terms, this means that more inhibitor must be injected than the amount predicted solely from the aqueous phase concentrations. If only that amount of inhibitor is injected, then not enough will be used. The inhibitors are volatile and thus will evaporate from the aqueous liquid, ...
The highest terpene and norisoprenoid contents together with the lowest values of C6 compounds were observed during the fifth week of ripening, meaning that this would be the optimal time for harvesting in terms of volatile compounds. 展开
As the size of the transistor determines the area of memory to a large extent, which in turn limits the scalability of the integrated structure, the passive array is more dominant in terms of process and integration density. In a passive array, the memory cell is composed of a crossbar str...
5f) suggests a more complicated multi-step mechanism of CO2 gasification. Charcoal and facemask treated charcoal show extreme similarity in terms of CO2 reactivity, with the DTG signals appearing nearly identical. This is in stark contrast to the GCI coal samples where maximal rate and reaction ...
An iterative Finite Difference Eigenmode (FDE) simulation reveals that the sensitivity of the GO integrated device (in terms of RIU/nm) is enhanced by a factor of ~2, which is coupled with a lower limit of detection. Critically, the simulations reveal that the strength of the optical ...
