Based on early estimates, using low volumes of materials, the new batteries should be half the cost of conventional nickel-metal hydride batteries, Mepsted says.
The biosensor imaging capability is expected to yield applications in pharmaceutical compound screening, genomics, proteomics, and molecular diagnostics, where there is a need to screen large numbers of biochemical interactions against samples using low volumes of reagents.
The company that operates the wells, Freeport-McMoRan, says it undertook "routine maintenance operations" using low volumes of acid, not "acidizing" as activists have described it.
In the 1940s a new breed of herbicide was born that allowed for relatively low amount of chemical applied, using low volumes of water, meaning that we could selectively kill the weed without harming the crop plant.
Previous work has shown adequate tagging may be achieved using low volumes of 40% w/v barium, although the ideal volume and dosing regimen has not been fully established [ 9].
The method under investigation used low volume of solvent (5 mL), low sample mass (1.5 g) and low mass of chitin (0.5 g), an environmentally friendly support.
Utilizing a combination of physics, chemistry, biology, and biotechnology, along with practical applications for designing devices that use low volumes of fluids to achieve high-throughput screening, is a major goal in microfluidics.
Fruit flies that are very important pests on a large number of crops, can be controlled efficiently using low-volume applications to deposit large droplets of insecticidal bait on the exterior of the crop canopy.
These results indicate that when 2000 spermatozoa/oocyte were used, a low volume of IVF medium (0.1 ml) and the number of oocytes during IVF (30 50) can improve the in vitro embryo production in pigs.
It was recommended that patients be ventilated with protective ventilation using low tidal volume 4 8 mL/kg of predicted body weight plus moderate to high levels of PEEP for volume-controlled or pressure-controlled ventilation [ 13].
