The two new technologies employed use a high precision balance to measure the in situ weight of the samples whilst they are still at test temperature, and the use of a custom designed blue laser triangulation system to measure the shape of the wear scars in situ and at temperature.
Weightings of liquid solutions were performed with high-precision balances providing accuracies below 0.01%.
The sample decomposition is characterized by the mass loss measured with a high-precision balance in nitrogen atmosphere and controlled sample temperature conditions from 250°C to 750°C with a heating ramp of 20 K min-1.
They are built with high-precision balanced armature speakers for incredible acoustic detail and clarity to deliver a breathtaking audio experience.
A high-precision balance (Sartorius, d = 0.001 mg) was used for weighing samples <10 mg, otherwise a Mettler Toldedo balance (d = 0.1 mg) was used.
Cartilage was dried for 1 day at room temperature, weighed on a high-precision balance (± 0.01 mg), then hydrolysed for 4 hours at 60°C with 60 μg (0.6 IU) of papain (Sigma, Saint Quentin-Franceinr, Francenzymaticymatic buffer (2 mM dithiothreitol, 1 mM EDTA, 20 mM Na2HPO4).
Medical syringes and high precision laboratory balances were used for the exact values of the reagents masses.
A high precision electrical balance (Model No. Sartorius-312) was used for weighing.
Considering that oil volume recovered is very small, a high precision electronic balance is used to weigh the oil and then calculate the oil volume.
The frozen flies were dried at 60°C for 48 hours and weighed in a high precision electronic balance (Sartorius CPA225D) to the nearest 0.01 mg.
Lower values show low recall and high precision, while higher values balance both measures.
