Expert communities exhibit increased conflict
on a microscale and relatively smaller bias on a macroscale, even in the absence of quality control mechanisms.
Diffusivity applies
on the microscale because models on that scale are not affected by advection or turbulence.
Creating organ models
on a microscale has been greatly facilitated by microfluidics, a technology developed in the 1990s that uses micropumps, valves and finely etched channels to manipulate the movement of fluids through a chip.
The nanoparticles then assembled into sheets (10 − 100 nm) and the sheets into aggregates
on the microscale (1 − 10 μm) when the polymer was crystallized.
Not exact matches
The microfluidic technology, developed in the lab of professor Mark Hayes in the Department of Chemistry and Biochemistry at Arizona State University, uses
microscale electric field gradients, acting
on extremely small samples, to tell the difference between the two strains (antibiotic - resistant and antibiotic - susceptible) of Staphylococcus epidermidis.
The researchers — from Seoul National University, Act Company and Minuta Technology — used an array of
microscale prisms placed
on a screen to create a filter that guides the light in one direction or another.
The combined data covered the reactions
on the nano -, meso -, and
microscales.
The gels can also be imprinted with patterns such as the
microscale architecture found
on the surface of lotus leaves, which allows them to repel water.
They achieved this by lithographically patterning a surface with
microscale features that convert excess surface tension into a kinetic energy that propels droplets to «hot spots»
on the surface.
«This work is significant because many commercially available «organ -
on - a-chip» devices are not truly
microscale, and therefore can totally miss important biological and toxicological phenomena simply because sample volumes and dimensions are too large.
The study is significant as it binds together structural correlates of plasticity at the
microscale with effects
on behavioral performance.
Magically, if I actually lay in bed at the end of the day, close my eyes, and mentally add up calories, I come very close to my target 2700 - 3000
on easy days and 3000 - 3300
on hard days — but this is all accomplished by simply following my hunger and intuition, and not by counting calories or hovering over a
microscale in the kitchen as I make my smoothie.
The
microscale components influence wave height and variations
on wave crests.
The large - scale climate, for instance, determines the environment for
microscale (1 km or less) and mesoscale (from several kilometers to several hundred kilometers) processes that govern weather and local climate, and these small - scale processes likely have significant impacts
on the evolution of the large - scale circulation.»
