Contact microphones based on piezoelectric materials are passive and high-impedance, and they sound tinny without a matching preamp. Instead of being used as a microphone, they alternatively may be used to produce sound (typical used as the buzzer in computer motherboards ) by sending voltages to them.
The internal electronic circuitry of an active noise-canceling mic attempts to subtract noise signal from the primary microphone. The circuit may employ passive or active noise canceling techniques to filter out the noise, producing an output signal that has a lower noise floor and a higher signal-to-noise ratio .
In this period, valves were also incorporated internally into microphones, and valve microphones were commercially available as a result. In the late 1920s, Dr. Harry F. Olson of RCA began developing the ribbon microphone, eventually using permanent magnets. In 1931, nine months after the introduction of Western's 618 dynamic, R.C.A. marketed a ...

The minimum bactericidal concentration (MBC) is the lowest concentration of an antibacterial agent required to kill a particular bacterium. [1] It can be determined from broth dilution minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) tests by subculturing to agar plates that do not contain the test agent.
