The phrase "atoms were tested" is correct and usable in written English.
It can be used in scientific contexts where experiments or analyses involving atoms are being discussed.
Example: "In the study, various types of atoms were tested to determine their reaction to different stimuli."
Alternatives: "atoms were examined" or "atoms were analyzed".
In the first screening, various unfunctionalized linear aliphatic alcohols with a chain length ranging from four to eleven carbon atoms were tested, and the performance was measured as overall conversion to the corresponding amine 1 b– 8 b (Table 1, entries 1 8).
Zinc phthalocyanine substituted with four hydroxyl groups attached to the macrocycle, either directly or via spacer chains of three or six carbon atoms, were tested for their photodynamic ability to inactivate Chinese hamster lung fibroblasts (line V-79) in vitro, and to induce regression of EMT-6 tumours grown subcutaneously in Balb/c mice.
Five types of atom selections were tested: Hydrogen bonds (HB).
Degussa P25, anode-oxidized titanium and titanium dioxide doped with sulphur and boron atoms attached to various supports were tested.
Several different groups were tested including heavy atoms (–Cl, –Br, –I) and electron accepting (–NO2) group.
Assuming that Mg atoms can only occupy the 6c site in the PuNi3-type structure [30], two different combinations of Ca and La atoms have been tested by Rietveld refinement to find the repartition of these elements among the two available sites 3a and 6c.
Equation 4 with n = 1 cannot account for chemical bond, so the atoms can be tested only with n = 1.
Two dihydrophenazine derivatives bearing either 2-hydroxypropyl or ethyl substituents on both N atoms, have been tested in liquid and polymer electrolyte lithium cells.
Moreover, the special characteristics of these "primordial lumps" — produced when the size of the universe was smaller than a single atom — might be tested if we were able to probe out to the farthest reaches of the known universe.
Three stable silanetriols with increasing steric protection of the silicon atom have been tested for inhibition of acetylcholinesterase (AChE).
In summary, three stable silanetriols 1– 3 with increasing steric protection of the silicon atom have been tested for inhibition of acetylcholinesterase (AChE).
