  2. Meloxicam - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Meloxicam

    It blocks cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) more than it blocks cyclooxygenase-1 (COX-1). [11] It is in the oxicam family of chemicals and is closely related to piroxicam. [11] Meloxicam was patented in 1977 and approved for medical use in the United States in 2000. [11] [13] It was developed by Boehringer Ingelheim and is available as a generic ...

  3. Eye dropper - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eye_dropper

    The bulb portion is thinner and therefore "squeezable", while the pipette portion is thick enough to be rigid. They commonly come in 1, 2, 3, and 5 ml which comes with a specific drop size of 10, 20, 25, 35, and 50 μL. [7] The volumes are usually marked on the stem, though the markings are rather crude and are not particularly accurate. [8]

  5. Mass fraction (chemistry) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mass_fraction_(chemistry)

    A solution with 1 g of solute dissolved in a final volume of 100 mL of solution would be labeled as "1%" or "1% m/v" (mass/volume). This is incorrect because the unit "%" can only be used for dimensionless quantities. Instead, the concentration should simply be given in units of g/mL.

  6. Drop (unit) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Drop_(unit)

    This is equal to about 61.6 μL (U.S.) or 59.2 μL (Britain). Pharmacists have since moved to metric measurements, with a drop being rounded to exactly 0.05 mL (50 μL, that is, 20 drops per milliliter). In hospitals, intravenous tubing is used to deliver medication in drops of various sizes ranging from 10 drops/mL to 60 drops/mL.

  7. Apothecaries' system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Apothecaries'_system

    English-speaking countries also used a system of units of fluid measure, or in modern terminology volume units, based on the apothecaries' system. Originally, the terms and symbols used to describe the volume measurements of liquids were the same as or similar to those used to describe weight measurements of solids [33] (for example, the pound by weight and the fluid pint were both referred to ...

  8. Dilution (equation) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dilution_(equation)

    The dilution in welding terms is defined as the weight of the base metal melted divided by the total weight of the weld metal. For example, if we have a dilution of 0.40, the fraction of the weld metal that came from the consumable electrode is 0.60.

  9. Low dead space syringe - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Low_dead_space_syringe

    This space can be as high as 84 micro liters in conventional syringes. [2] Conventional high dead space syringes have existed since the mass production of plastic syringes with removable needles in 1961. [3] However, there are problems associated with the dead space in syringes: medication waste, [4] disease transmission, [2] and inaccurate ...
