The importance of the particle levitation methods is that they allow the study of how a single particle responds to changes in environment. The infrared molecular spectroscopy of single particles is possible [253], as are photophysical studies using adsorbed or dissolved dyes. 

Amperometry is a voltammetric method in which a constant potential is applied to the electrode and the resulting current is measured. Amperometry is most often used in the construction of chemical sensors that, as with potentiometric sensors, are used for the quantitative analysis of single analytes. One important example, for instance, is the Clark O2 electrode, which responds to the concentration of dissolved O2 in solutions such as blood and water. 

Applications Research. Specialty chemical producers devote a larger share of their time and costs to appHcations research than do producers of most commodity chemicals. As noted earHer, the most successful specialty chemical producers have been those companies that ate able to respond quickly to customer needs and problems under the conditions found in the customer s plant. This entails having, at the specialty chemical plant, equipment and procedural knowledge which closely approximate those found among customers. Tests can then be mn and a solution to the problem or need may result. If successful, even in part, it can be brought to the customers and tried there. In practice, of course, each customer s plant has some variables which make a single answer or product quite unlikely. Fortunately, slight modifications by the suppHer will often solve the next customer s problem. 

Cost to the Industry. When compared to the potential expense for defending a single claim of tampering, the cost of effective tamper-evident packaging becomes insignificant. Many firms simply caimot afford the cost of responding to product tampering claims, especially if the firm is a small one with a limited or totally related product line where the reputation of the entire product line can be affected by adverse pubHcity on one item. LiabiUty insurance caimot return lost customer confidence. 

Whether a viscoelastic material behaves as a viscous Hquid or an elastic soHd depends on the relation between the time scale of the experiment and the time required for the system to respond to stress or deformation. Although the concept of a single relaxation time is generally inappHcable to real materials, a mean characteristic time can be defined as the time required for a stress to decay to 1/ of its elastic response to a step change in strain. The... 

In contrast, various sensors are expected to respond in a predictable and controlled manner to such diverse parameters as temperature, pressure, velocity or acceleration of an object, intensity or wavelength of light or sound, rate of flow, density, viscosity, elasticity, and, perhaps most problematic, the concentration of any of millions of different chemical species. Furthermore, a sensor that responds selectively to only a single one of these parameters is often the goal, but the first attempt typically produces a device that responds to several of the other parameters as well. Interferences are the bane of sensors, which are often expected to function under, and be immune to, extremely difficult environmental conditions. 

This is an old, familiar analysis that applies to any continuous culture with a single growth-limiting nutrient that meets the assumptions of perfect mixing and constant volume. The fundamental mass balance equations are used with the Monod equation, which has no time dependency and should be apphed with caution to transient states where there may be a time lag as [L responds to changing S. At steady state, the rates of change become zero, and [L = D. Substituting ... 

In practice, noises are not composed of one single pure tone but are usually very complex in nature. It is essential that more than the overall noise level (in dB) is known in order to appreciate the loudness of a noise, as the ear does not respond uniformly to all frequencies. 

The observation of dependent variable values (in functional experiments this is cellular response) as they happen (i.e., as the agonist or antagonist binds to the receptor and as the cell responds) is referred to as real time. In contrast, a response chosen at a single point in time is referred to as stop-time experimentation. There are certain experimental formats that must utilize stop-time measurement of responses since the preparation is irreparably altered by the process of measuring response. For example, measurement of gene activation through reporter molecules necessitates lysis of the cell. Therefore, only one... 

The HMG-CoA reductase inhibitors have an additive effect when used with the bile acid sequestrants, which may provide an added benefit in treating hypercholesterolemia that does not respond to a single-drug regimen. There is an increased risk of myopathy (disorders of the striated muscle) when the HMG-CoA reductase inhibitors are administered with erythromycin, niacin, or cyclosporin a When the HMG-CoA reductase inhibitors are administered with oral anticoagulants, there is an increased anticoagulant effect. 

As detergent manufacturers responded to consumer trends the number of mixed active detergent products increased. The combination of LAS with other surfactants in mixed active systems can provide several advantages over a single active LAS system. These advantages can include the following ... 

To extend our model, we should note that, at low pressures at least, all gases respond in the same way to changes in pressure, volume, and temperature. Therefore, for calculations of the type that we are doing in this chapter, it does not matter whether all the molecules in a sample are the same. A mixture of gases that do not react with one another behaves like a single pure gas. For instance, we can treat air as a single gas when we want to use the ideal gas law to predict its properties. 

These measurements indicate that it is not possible to identify a single value of pe surrounding the O2/H2S interface in the environment. Redox couples do not respond to the pe of the environment with the same lability as hydrogen ion donors and acceptors. There is no clear electron buffer capacity other than the most general states of "oxygen containing" or "H2S containing." The reason for the vast differences in pec in the oxic waters is the slow oxidation kinetics of the reduced forms of the redox couples. The reduced species for which the kinetics of oxidation by O2 has been most widely studied is Mn. This oxidation reaction...
