Cryogenic grinding, also known as freezer milling, freezer grinding, and cryomilling, is the act of cooling or chilling a material and then reducing it into a small particle size. For example, thermoplastics are difficult to grind to small particle sizes at ambient temperatures because they soften, adhere in lumpy masses and clog screens.
[[Category:Biology templates]] to the <includeonly> section at the bottom of that page. Otherwise, add <noinclude>[[Category:Biology templates]]</noinclude> to the end of the template code, making sure it starts on the same line as the code's last character.
A molecularly imprinted polymer (MIP) is a polymer that has been processed using the molecular imprinting technique which leaves cavities in the polymer matrix with an affinity for a chosen "template" molecule. The process usually involves initiating the polymerization of monomers in the presence of a template molecule that is extracted ...
A sample is imaged in a TEM as it is tilted to different angles, resulting in a "tilt-series" of 2D images (top). This tilt-series is then computationally reconstructed into a 3D "tomogram" (bottom). Cryogenic electron tomography ( cryoET ) is an imaging technique used to reconstruct high-resolution (~1–4 nm) three-dimensional volumes of ...
Elutriation is a common method used by biologists to sample meiofauna. [4] The sediment sample is constantly agitated by a flow of filtered water from below, the action of which dislodges interstitial organisms embedded between sediment grains. A very fine filter at the top captures these organisms from the overflow. [5]
In form milling, the cutter called a form cutter travels axially along the length of the gear tooth at the appropriate depth to produce the gear tooth. After each tooth is cut, the cutter is withdrawn, the gear blank is rotated, and the cutter proceeds to cut another tooth.
Form-milling uses either a single- or multiple-form cutter. In one variant of form-milling, the single-form cutter is tilted to the helix angle of the thread and then fed radially into the blank. The blank is then slowly rotated as the cutter is precisely moved along the axis of the blank, which cuts the thread into the blank.
The solenoid structure's most obvious function is to help package the DNA so that it is small enough to fit into the nucleus. This is a big task as the nucleus of a mammalian cell has a diameter of approximately 6 μm, whilst the DNA in one human cell would stretch to just over 2 metres long if it were unwound. [6]
