Pneumonoultramicroscopicsilicovolcanoconiosis is the longest word in the English language. The word can be analysed as follows: Pneumono: from ancient Greek (πνεύμων, pneúmōn) which means lungs; ultra: from Latin, meaning beyond; micro and scopic: from ancient Greek, meaning small looking, referring to the fineness of ...
Miner's phthisis, Grinder's asthma, Potter's rot, [1] pneumonoultramicroscopicsilicovolcanoconiosis [2] [3] Slice of a lung affected by silicosis: Specialty: Pulmonology: Types: Chronic silicosis: includes two types itself, simple silicosis and progressive massive fibrosis, Accelerated silicosis, Acute silicosis: Differential diagnosis
[5] [2] Ultramicrobacteria possess a relatively high surface-area-to-volume ratio due to their small size, which aids in growth under oligotrophic (i.e. nutrient-poor) conditions. [2] The relatively small size of ultramicrobacteria also enables parasitism of larger organisms; [ 2 ] some ultramicrobacteria have been observed to be obligate or ...
Mspire is an MS informatics developer's toolbox, written in ruby, that includes an mzML reader/writer, in-silico digestion and isotopic pattern calculation, etc. Submodules such as mspire-lipidomics, mspire-sequest, and mspire-simulator extend the functionality.
It sounds good, but doesn't work. The fact that microscopic is included doesn't mean you can split it into two words, because then the words make no sense. pneumono goes with osis, otherwise you get lungs very extremely small rather than lungs full of very extremely small volcanic silica dust, the disease. --Ben Brockert 03:35, Nov 18, 2004 (UTC)
Background Chlorine and caustic soda are produced at chlor-alkali plants using mercury cells or the increasingly popular membrane technology that is mercury free and more energy-
The notion of acoustic microscopy dates back to 1936 when S. Ya. Sokolov [1] proposed a device for producing magnified views of structure with 3-GHz sound waves. However, due to technological limitations at the time, no such instrument could be constructed, and it was not until 1959 that Dunn and Fry [2] performed the first acoustic microscopy experiments, though not at very high frequencies.
The typical value of 500–700 nm can be improved to 100–150 nm, which corresponds to an almost spherical focal spot with 5–7 times less volume than that of standard confocal microscopy. The improvement in resolution is achieved by using two opposing objective lenses, both of which are focused to the same geometric location.
