The TED spread dropped substantially after the announcement of TSLF, super-TAF, Bear Stearns and all that made it clear that the Fed was determined to rescue banks — but it seems to have bottomed out well above its levels of early this year, and far above "normal" levels.
A patch of blue expands across the sky like a spreading drop of watercolour paint.
The grooves comprising in the wood surface can deform the shape of the liquid lamella when the spreading drop reaches the maximum diameter.
The use of these techniques is similar to the report of Satpute et al. (2008), who used the combination of oil spreading, drop collapse, tilted glass slide, and emulsification index to select biosurfactant producers.
In "prompt splash" very small and fast droplets are generated when the advancing lamella of a spreading drop is disturbed by rough surface structures higher than a specific fraction of the lamella, causing the lamella to rupture locally and release small splash droplets [118].
Individual NWs for TEM observations were prepared by ultrasonicating the samples in ethanol for 5 min, followed by spreading drops from the suspension onto a holey carbon/Cu grid.
Before that spread dropped below 10% in July the entire junk bond market appeared distressed usually a sign of a companys impending collapse (see, "Flight To Junk").
Oil likes to spread — a drop of it can expand until it is one molecule thick.
For the percutaneous vaccine we evenly spread one drop of solution, containing 80 mg/ml BCG (3×10 colony forming units/ml), over the skin and, using a nine pronged vaccination tool (BCG Laboratory), perforated the skin three quarters of the way up the right upper arm in the deltoid area, and a second time about 2 cm more distally.
Spread heavy drop cloths over the entire floor area.
