It is now well identified that bacteria connect to solid supports to shape structured communities called biofilms, also known as biopolymer matrix-enclosed microbial populations adhering to each other and/or surfaces [111]. Biofihns occur on both living and inert supports in all environments [112]. They influence various industrial and domestic areas [113] and are accountable for a broad range of human diseases [111], In view of the ever growing number of implanted patients, biofilm-linked infections of indwelling medical devices are more predominantly a foremost public health issue. Various examples of implants that can be inflated by biofilm formation are mechanical heart valves, catheters, pacemakers/defibriUators, ventricular assist devices, vascular prostheses, coronary stents, neurosurgical ventricular shunts, cerebrospinal fluid shunts, neurological stimulation implants, ocular prostheses, inflatable penile, cochlear, joint prostheses, fracture-fixation devices, breast, and dental implants and contact lenses, intrauterine contraceptive devices [114-116]. 

Kipp s apparatus Equipment for the production of a gas by interaction of a liquid and a solid. It consists of three receptacles, the top is reservoir for the liquid and is connected to the bottom. The middle contains the solid and a tap for the gas. When gas is released the liquid rises and reacts with the solid, when the tap is closed the back pressure returns the liquid lo the lower reservoir and reaction cease . Once widely used for the production of H.S (HCl and FeS) and C O (HCl and CaC(3,<). 

To display properties on molecular surfaces, two different approaches are applied. One method assigns color codes to each grid point of the surface. The grid points are connected to lines chicken-wire) or to surfaces (solid sphere) and then the color values are interpolated onto a color gradient [200]. The second method projects colored textures onto the surface [202, 203] and is mostly used to display such properties as electrostatic potentials, polarizability, hydrophobidty, and spin density. 

Dihydroxyacetophenone. Finely powder a mixture of 40 g. of dry hydroquinone diacetate (1) and 87 g. of anhydrous aluminium chloride in a glass mortar and introduce it into a 500 ml. round-bottomed flask, fitted with an air condenser protected by a calcium chloride tube and connected to a gas absorption trap (Fig. II, 8, 1). Immerse the flask in an oil bath and heat slowly so that the temperature reaches 110-120° at the end of about 30 minutes the evolution of hydrogen chloride then hegins. Raise the temperature slowly to 160-165° and maintain this temperature for 3 hours. Remove the flask from the oil bath and allow to cool. Add 280 g. of crushed ice followed by 20 ml. of concentrated hydrochloric acid in order to decompose the excess of aluminium chloride. Filter the resulting solid with suction and wash it with two 80 ml. portions of cold water. Recrystallise the crude product from 200 ml. of 95 per cent, ethanol. The 3 ield of pure 2 5-dihydroxyacetophenone, m.p. 202-203°, is 23 g. 

Solid-state microprocessor based these are more sensitive and accurate. They can be made digital to be connected to a computer for remote monitoring and control of the process that the motor is driving. 

If the pump is a filter pump off a high-pressure water supply, its performance will be limited by the temperature of the water because the vapour pressure of water at 10°, 15°, 20° and 25° is 9.2, 12.8, 17.5 and 23.8 mm Hg respectively. The pressure can be measured with an ordinary manometer. For vacuums in the range lO" mm Hg to 10 mm Hg, rotary mechanical pumps (oil pumps) are used and the pressure can be measured with a Vacustat McLeod type gauge. If still higher vacuums are required, for example for high vacuum sublimations, a mercury diffusion pump is suitable. Such a pump can provide a vacuum up to 10" mm Hg. For better efficiencies, the pump can be backed up by a mechanical pump. In all cases, the mercury pump is connected to the distillation apparatus through several traps to remove mercury vapours. These traps may operate by chemical action, for example the use of sodium hydroxide pellets to react with acids, or by condensation, in which case empty tubes cooled in solid carbon dioxide-ethanol or liquid nitrogen (contained in wide-mouthed Dewar flasks) are used. 

Four magnetite rod anodes (All to A14), each weighing 9 kg, in perforated polypropylene protection tubes were used to protect the box headers, the in-flow hood and inlet housing as well as the CrNi steel oil cooler. Protection tubes keep out solid matter carried in the river water. The oil cooler was connected to the protection equipment with its own cathode conductor. 

A number of coupling options exist with motor drivers. The main gear is often equipped with a simple shoulder bearing, does not have thrust collars, and is connected to the compressor train with a solid coupling. Other manufacturers opt to use flexible couplings and conventional thrust bearings. 

B. Tropohne. In a 1-1., three-necked, round-bottomed flask equipped with a mechanical stirrer, addition funnel, and reflux condenser are placed 500 ml. of glacial acetic acid and then, cautiously, 100 g. of sodium hydroxide pellets. After the pellets have dissolved, 100 g. of 7,7-dichlorobicyclo[3.2.0]hept-2-en-6-one is added and the solution is maintained at reflux under nitrogen for 8 hours. Concentrated hydrochloric acid is then added until the mixture is about pH 1 approximately 125 ml. of acid is required. After the addition of 1 1. of benzene, the mixture is filtered and the solid sodium chloride is washed with three 100-ml. portions of benzene. The two phases of the filtrate are separated and the aqueous phase is transferred to a 1-1. continuous extractor (Note 8) which is stirred magnetically. The combined benzene phase is transferred to a 2-1. pot connected to the extractor and the aqueous phase is extracted for 13 hours. Following distillation of the benzene, the remaining orange liquid is distilled under reduced pressure... 

Liquid-in-glass thermometers measure the thermal expansion of a liquid, which is placed in a solid container, on a length scale. The mercury thermometer is one example of liquid thermometers. Alcohol is also used with this type of instrument. The temperature range is -80 to a-330 °C depending on the liquid. The quality, stability, and accuracy vary considerably. The advantages are a simple construction and low price. A disadvantage is that they are not compatible for connection to monitoring systems. 

It has been observed in moving from the simplest cases to the more complex cases that, even in the simplest situation of elastic shock deformation, the observed effects can be considerably more complex than would be anticipated from extrapolation from tow pressure, smalt signal studies carried out in more conventional solid state physics. There is typically a degree of connection to the conventional work, but complexities, usually associated with defects, enter the picture from unanticipated directions.
