Sedimentation potential occurs when dispersed particles move under the influence of either gravity or centrifugation or electricity in a medium. This...

The erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR or sed rate) is the rate at which red blood cells in anticoagulated whole blood descend in a standardized tube...

The physical process of sedimentation (the act of depositing sediment) has applications in water treatment, whereby gravity acts to remove suspended solids...

and charge. Other examples include electro-osmosis, sedimentation potential, and streaming potential. Proteins often have groups present on their surfaces...

potential gradient; capillary osmosis, as motion of liquid in porous body under influence of the chemical potential gradient; sedimentation potential...

they have smaller Brownian motion to counteract this movement. The sedimentation or creaming velocity is found by equating the Stokes drag force with...

(also known as the fundamental lexical hypothesis, lexical approach, or sedimentation hypothesis) generally includes two postulates: 1. Those personality...

becomes a dominant pathway for organic carbon remineralization. If the sedimentation rate is low (about 1  cm/yr), the organic carbon content is low (about...

mechanical means for continuous removal of solids being deposited by sedimentation. A clarifier is generally used to remove solid particulates or suspended...

settling and sedimentation, along with anaerobic digestion of the settled sludge. It consists of an upper chamber in which sedimentation takes place,...

methods. The methods used include physical processes such as filtration, sedimentation, and distillation; biological processes such as slow sand filters or...

record is biased towards periods of greatest sedimentation; periods of time that have less sedimentation are consequently less well represented in the...

mixture of a fluid that contains solid particles sufficiently large for sedimentation. The particles may be visible to the naked eye, usually must be larger...

common process in wastewater treatment is phase separation, such as sedimentation. Biological and chemical processes such as oxidation are another example...

Sedimentation enhancing strategies are environmental management projects aiming to restore and facilitate land-building processes in deltas. Sediment...

ensures their shells function as mineral ballast, resulting in fast sedimentation to bathypelagic depths. High settling fluxes of acantharian cysts have...

Eukaryotic ribosomes are also known as 80S ribosomes, referring to their sedimentation coefficients in Svedberg units, because they sediment faster than the...

Thus, the CLGB records a prolonged and episodic history of rifting, sedimentation and magmatism before the collision and rift closure at about 1.9 Ga...

limestone deposits are almost always in areas with very little silica-rich sedimentation, reflected in the relative purity of most limestones. Reef organisms...

accurate reflection of the acute phase response than the ESR (erythrocyte sedimentation rate). ESR may be normal while CRP is elevated. CRP returns to normal...

soluble byproducts of the reaction by a combination of evaporation, sedimentation, centrifugation, washing, and filtration. Alternatively, if the particles...

In an aqueous solution, precipitation is the "sedimentation of a solid material (a precipitate) from a liquid solution". The solid formed is called the...

cases, the eventual result is desertification. Off-site effects include sedimentation of waterways and eutrophication of water bodies, as well as sediment-related...
