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
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)
[1] [2] The three most common types are asbestosis, silicosis, and coal miner's lung. [3] Pneumoconiosis often causes restrictive impairment, [4] although diagnosable pneumoconiosis can occur without measurable impairment of lung function. [1] [2] Depending on extent and severity, it may cause death within months or years, or it may never ...
Ultramicrobacteria are bacteria that are smaller than 0.1 μm 3 under all growth conditions. [1] [2] [3] This term was coined in 1981, describing cocci in seawater that were less than 0.3 μm in diameter. [4] Ultramicrobacteria have also been recovered from soil and appear to be a mixture of gram-positive, gram-negative and cell-wall-lacking ...
This has made it possible to identify individual atomic columns with unprecedented clarity. Aberration-corrected STEM was demonstrated with 1.9 Å resolution in 1997 [8] and soon after in 2000 with roughly 1.36 Å resolution. [9] Advanced aberration-corrected STEMs have since been developed with sub-50 pm resolution. [10]
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.
Ṅ diff,B =(CD BA A (y B,1-y B,2))/L = (D BA A (C B,1-C B,2))/L = (D BA A (P B,0-P B,L))/(R u T L) where. C is the molar concentration D AB or D BA is the interdiffusion coefficient P is the partial pressure of the gas A is the constant cross-sectional area L is the length of the channel where the mixtures diffuse y is the mole fraction
