  2. Hectograph - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hectograph

    Care needed to be taken that the gelatin surface was kept clean, and not damaged (e.g. by fingernails) during duplicating. Although the name " hecto-graph " implies production of 100 copies, in reality the gelatin process produced print runs of somewhere between 20 and 80 copies, depending upon the skill of the user and the quality of the original.

  4. Animal glue - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Animal_glue

    As hide glue cools, it gels quickly. At room temperature, prepared hide glue has the consistency of stiff gelatin, which is in fact a similar composition. Gelled hide glue does not have significant strength, so it is vital to apply the glue, fit the pieces, and hold them steady before the glue temperature drops much below 50 °C (120 °F).

  5. Bloom (test) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bloom_(test)

    Bloom is a test used to measure the strength of a gel, most commonly gelatin.The test was originally developed and patented in 1925 by Oscar T. Bloom. [1] The test determines the weight in grams needed by a specified plunger (normally with a diameter of 0.5 inch) to depress the surface of the gel by 4 mm without breaking it at a specified temperature.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydrogel

    Gelatin, here in sheets for cooking, is a hydrogel. Peptide hydrogel formation shown by the inverted vial method. A hydrogel is a biphasic material, a mixture of porous and permeable solids and at least 10% of water or other interstitial fluid.

  7. Penny (unit) - Wikipedia

    A larger number indicates a longer nail, shown in the table below. Diameter of the nail also varies based on penny size, depending on nail type. Nails under 1 + 1 ⁄ 4 inch, often called brads, are sold mostly in small packages with only a length designation or with length and wire gauge designations; for example, 1″ 18 ga. or 3 ⁄ 4 ″ 16 ga.

  8. Gel electrophoresis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gel_electrophoresis

    Overview of gel electrophoresis. Electrophoresis is a process that enables the sorting of molecules based on charge, size, or shape. Using an electric field, molecules (such as DNA) can be made to move through a gel made of agarose or polyacrylamide.

  9. Photographic emulsion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Photographic_emulsion

    Photographic emulsion is a fine suspension of insoluble light-sensitive crystals in a colloid sol, usually consisting of gelatin.The light-sensitive component is one or a mixture of silver halides: silver bromide, chloride and iodide.
