  2. Pyrolytic carbon - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pyrolytic_carbon

    Pyrolytic graphite levitating over permanent magnets. Few materials can be made to magnetically levitate stably above the magnetic field from a permanent magnet. Although magnetic repulsion is obviously and easily achieved between any two magnets, the shape of the field causes the upper magnet to push off sideways, rather than remaining supported, rendering stable levitation impossible for ...

  3. Self-cleaning oven - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Self-cleaning_oven

    Self-cleaning pyrolytic ovens reduce food soiling to ash with exposure to temperature around 932 °F (500 °C). The oven walls are coated with heat- and acid-resistant porcelain enamel. A self-cleaning oven is designed to stay locked until the high temperature process is completed.

  4. Filamentation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Filamentation

    In the absence of antibiotics or other stressors, filamentation occurs at a low frequency in bacterial populations (4–8% short filaments and 0–5% long filaments in 1- to 8-hour cultures). [3] The increased cell length can protect bacteria from protozoan predation and neutrophil phagocytosis by making ingestion of cells more difficult.

  5. Pyrolysis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pyrolysis

    Pyrolysis has many applications in food preparation. [23] Caramelization is the pyrolysis of sugars in food (often after the sugars have been produced by the breakdown of polysaccharides). The food goes brown and changes flavor. The distinctive flavors are used in many dishes; for instance, caramelized onion is used in French onion soup.

  6. Stamen - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stamen

    Stamen is the Latin word meaning "thread" (originally thread of the warp, in weaving). [8]Filament derives from classical Latin filum, meaning "thread" [8]; Anther derives from French anthère, [9] from classical Latin anthera, meaning "medicine extracted from the flower" [10] [11] in turn from Ancient Greek ἀνθηρά (anthērá), [9] [11] feminine of ἀνθηρός (anthērós) meaning ...

  7. Flagellin - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flagellin

    The filament is made up of eleven smaller "protofilaments", nine of which contains flagellin in the L-type shape and the other two in the R-type shape. [6] The helical N-and C-termini of flagellin form the inner core of the flagellin protein, and is responsible for flagellin's ability to polymerize into a filament. The middle residues make up ...

  8. Plant physiology - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plant_physiology

    A germination rate experiment. Plant physiology is a subdiscipline of botany concerned with the functioning, or physiology, of plants. [1]Plant physiologists study fundamental processes of plants, such as photosynthesis, respiration, plant nutrition, plant hormone functions, tropisms, nastic movements, photoperiodism, photomorphogenesis, circadian rhythms, environmental stress physiology, seed ...

  9. Annealed pyrolytic graphite - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Annealed_pyrolytic_graphite

    Annealed Pyrolytic Graphite (APG), also known as Thermally Annealed Pyrolytic Graphite (TPG), [1] is a form of synthetic graphite that offers excellent in-plane thermal conductivity. As with pyrolytic carbon or pyrolytic graphite (PG), APG is also low in mass, is electrically conductive , and offers diamagnetic properties that allow it to ...
