Sentence examples for particle breakdown from inspiring English sources

Furthermore, we present evidence that turbulence generated by aeration units and fish-feeding activity also induces particle breakdown.

James G. Brasseur, a professor of mechanical engineering at Penn State, and other researchers have devised a virtual stomach, a computer simulation of the gastric motions, stresses and particle breakdown that come about as the belly contracts.

The rate of particle breakdown based on rumen INDF kinetics was slower than the passage rate of small particles (0.033 h−1 versus 0.047 h−1).

However, ruminal particle breakdown, short-term ruminal pH, fibrolytic capacity of the digesta, and proportion of mat in the rumen decreased.

Using rice as the model, the aim of this study was to determine if interindividual differences in mastication and resulting degree of particle breakdown affected in vitro and in vivo glycemic potency.

Further, particle breakdown and proportion of mat in the rumen increased, and in situ hay dry matter degradability improved, which in turn indicated a higher capacity of ruminal digesta to degrade fiber.

Lal (2003) described the soil erosion process as a four-stage process involving detachment of particles, breakdown of aggregates, transport and redistribution of sediments over the landscape and deposition in depressional sites or aquatic ecosystems.

Although the uptake of QDs and retention in animals has not led to adverse effects over periods of months [32], [33], there remain concerns about the toxicity of the core (CdSe) of semi-conductor QDs should the particles breakdown intracellularly.

The degree of particle size breakdown as a result of mastication correlated with the RDS content in the chewed food bolus and initial digestion rate in vitro.

The reason for the stability of the Ag NPs is effective stabilization of Ag NPs due to the presence of PVP. Figure 8 shows stability of Ag NPs during 90 days, where after 90 days, color of Ag NPs was gradually turned into gray, indicating formation of bigger Ag particles and breakdown of stability.

Therefore, the emergence of a logarithmic decrease in mean area, which is evident for the leaf samples, implies a decrease in the susceptibility of the particles to breakdown.
