Sentence examples for bulk index from inspiring English sources

Although LCI has been found to be correlated to S acin and S cond, its utility and interpretation is still limited [79] since it is a bulk index of reduced ventilation efficiency over the entire lung and not an explicit index of heterogeneity of ventilation.

Furthermore, this system can use a proven, simple method to compensate for changes in the bulk index of refraction of the solution containing the analytes due to changes in temperature or solute concentration with simple modifications to the sensor chips alone.

We choose to ignore the low-order aberrations associated with the optical system or any bulk index of refraction mismatch.

Unfortunately, conventional SPR sensors cannot distinguish between the aforementioned surface and bulk effects so they need a reference channel to compensate for the bulk index variations [ 2].

Label-free methods, such as surface plasmon resonance (SPR), can provide kinetics information, but they often suffer from interference caused by nonspecific bindings and bulk index changes.

The rapid SPR responses are not due to bulk refraction index changes because the plots are reference corrected, which subtract out the bulk index change effect.

We index the reflections in surface (hexagonal) coordinates, marked with (HKL hex, instead of using bulk indices, denoted by (HKL cub [12].

The choice of monomers, binders, and other polymers or oligomers determines the bulk refractive index and refractive index change.

To the best of our knowledge, the power law description is a more precise description of the plasmonic red shift compared to an earlier publication, which used an exponential power law with respect to a bulk refractive index change.

Such a LSPR spectrum wavelength peak shift is given by Here m is the bulk refractive index response of the nanoparticles, Δ n is the change in refractive index induced by the absorbate, d is the effective thickness of the adsorbed layer, and ld is the characteristic electromagnetic field decay length.

In October, the value of the bulk commodity index – which includes iron ore, metallurgical coal and thermal coal prices – rose 15%, the fourth-biggest monthly jump in the index's history: Whether the increase in prices for coal and iron ore will be high enough and sustained will determine if it leads to more non-residential building work in the mining sector.
