  2. Scherrer equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scherrer_Equation

    The Scherrer equation, in X-ray diffraction and crystallography, is a formula that relates the size of sub-micrometre crystallites in a solid to the broadening of a peak in a diffraction pattern. It is often referred to, incorrectly, as a formula for particle size measurement or analysis. It is named after Paul Scherrer.

  3. Amoeba - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amoeba

    The size of amoeboid cells and species is extremely variable. The marine amoeboid Massisteria voersi is just 2.3 to 3 micrometres in diameter, [ 20 ] within the size range of many bacteria. [ 21 ] At the other extreme, the shells of deep-sea xenophyophores can attain 20 cm in diameter. [ 22 ]

  4. Bacterial cellulose - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bacterial_cellulose

    Plant cellulose, which makes up the cell walls of most plants, is a tough, mesh-like bulkwork in which cellulose fibrils are the primary architectural elements. While bacterial cellulose has the same molecular formula as plant cellulose, it has significantly different macromolecular properties and characteristics. [ 8 ]

  5. Cell wall - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cell_wall

    The secondary cell wall, a thick layer formed inside the primary cell wall after the cell is fully grown. It is not found in all cell types. It is not found in all cell types. Some cells, such as the conducting cells in xylem , possess a secondary wall containing lignin , which strengthens and waterproofs the wall.

  6. Surface-area-to-volume ratio - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Surface-area-to-volume_ratio

    SA:V is used to explain the diffusion of small molecules, like oxygen and carbon dioxide between air, blood and cells, [3] water loss by animals, [4] bacterial morphogenesis, [5] organism's thermoregulation, [6] design of artificial bone tissue, [7] artificial lungs [8] and many more biological and biotechnological structures. For more examples ...

  7. Particle-size distribution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Particle-size_distribution

    ρ p: Actual particle density (g/cm 3) ρ g: Gas or sample matrix density (g/cm 3) r 2: Least-squares coefficient of determination. The closer this value is to 1.0, the better the data fit to a hyperplane representing the relationship between the response variable and a set of covariate variables.

  8. Microalgae - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microalgae

    However, the low cell density is a major bottleneck in commercial viability of many microalgae derived products, especially low cost commodities. [ 24 ] Studies have investigated the main factors in the success of a microalgae hatchery system to be: [ 25 ] [ 26 ]
