In this report, we describe a modified scanning protocol for a stereotactic rotational multidirectional animal containment apparatus, with SD-OCT imaging capabilities, for the acquisition of high resolution scans of the ocular posterior segment in mice.
The maximum shear rates and corresponding shear stresses existing in the apparatus at different rotational speeds were estimated.
The applied force was controlled by operating the apparatus at the same rotational speed (30 rpm), and using the same amount of gastric juice (176 mL) and beads (324 g), which made up 500 mL of simulated gastric content.
As the patella was never everted but only lateralized, the tension of the extensor apparatus may have limited the normal rotational alignment of the femur when spreading the tensioner with symmetrical force on the medial and lateral sides.
The results show that the order of factors influencing the impact fragmentation apparatus's working parameters are impact energy, rotational speed, feed pressure, impact frequency and bit type.
Locomotor activity was assessed in a Rotorat System apparatus (Med Associates, Mt. St Albans, VT) that measured rotational ambulation, quantified as quarter turns in both directions, within a bowl-shaped arena.
The thermal conductivity and viscosity were experimentally determined at temperatures ranging from 283.15 K to 323.15 K using an apparatus based on the hot-wire method and a rotational viscometer, respectively.
The experimental apparatus consists of three main parts: a pulsed laser, a rotational stage, and a gated camera.
The dissolution variables selected using a design of experiments (DoE) were the dissolution apparatus [USP1 apparatus (basket) and USP2 apparatus (paddle)], the rotational speed of the basket/or paddle, the operator conditions (dissolution apparatus brand and operator), the volume, the pH, and the ethanol content of the dissolution medium.
The mechanistic model argues that the relative motion between the rotor and stator is Brownian in nature, and this thermal rotational fluctuation is biased by PMF to go in the 'correct' direction, via a putative ratchet apparatus (Junge et al., 1997).
