Now assume, in the case of this example, that the quantity of money in this community is somehow doubled, but in such a way that no one expects the quantity to change again.
Other vital enzymes such as cellulases, amylases, laccases and pectinases may also be produced (Choi et al. 2005), one unit of activity can be defined (for example) as the quantity of enzyme which, for 30 min at 37 °C, catalyses the splitting of 1 mg of glucose under experimental conditions.
This project is just one of many examples of the vast quantity of retrofits that California's forthcoming investment vehicles should be able to address, but it's clear that more is needed.
These data may show where efforts might be best spent by, for example, improving the quantity and quality of foods in the food supply and/or by improving access to those nutrients for certain groups.

Although this criticism applies to the proposed linking of the kilogram to the Planck constant via a route that requires a knowledge of both special relativity and quantum mechanics it does not apply to the proposed definition of the ampere which is closer to an example of its quantity than is the current definition.
