  2. Spindle oil - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spindle_oil

    Spindle oils are a type of low-viscosity mineral oil marketed for use in lubrication of high-speed machine spindles. [1] Spindle oil is free from gumming properties. [2] Since the viscosity is so low that the oil runs off the surface of the spindle during shut-down periods, the spindle oil may be doped with additives that prevent rusting.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_cleaning_products

    This is a list of cleaning products and agents. Cleaning agents are substances (usually liquids, powders, sprays, or granules) used to remove dirt, including dust, stains, bad smells, and clutter on surfaces.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Murphy_Oil_Soap

    Murphy Oil Soap is commonly used to clean and polish horse tack, such as bridles and saddles. It is also commonly used to clean black-powder weapons after use, since the lack of petroleum-based oil and the presence of vegetable oil lessens the amount of sludge created when cleaning black powder residues from weapons.

  6. Spindle apparatus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spindle_apparatus

    The dynamic lengthening and shortening of spindle microtubules, through a process known as dynamic instability determines to a large extent the shape of the mitotic spindle and promotes the proper alignment of chromosomes at the spindle midzone. Microtubule-associated proteins (MAPs) associate with microtubules at the midzone and the spindle ...

  7. Microtubule - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microtubule

    The most common form of a microtubule consists of 13 protofilaments in the tubular arrangement. Microtubules are one of the cytoskeletal filament systems in eukaryotic cells. The microtubule cytoskeleton is involved in the transport of material within cells, carried out by motor proteins that move on the surface of the microtubule.

  8. Spindle pole body - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spindle_pole_body

    The spindle pole body (SPB) is the microtubule organizing center in yeast cells, functionally equivalent to the centrosome. Unlike the centrosome the SPB does not contain centrioles. The SPB organises the microtubule cytoskeleton which plays many roles in the cell. It is important for organising the spindle and thus in cell division.

  9. 3-in-One Oil - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/3-In-One_Oil

    3-in-One Oil is a general-purpose lubricating oil sold for household and do-it-yourself use. It was originally formulated in 1894 for use on bicycles, and remains a popular lubricant for their chains. Its name, given by inventor George W. Cole of New Jersey in 1894, [1] reflects the product's triple ability to "clean, lubricate and protect".
