McGraw Hill Financial, Inc. is an American publicly traded corporation headquartered in Rockefeller Center in New York City. Its primary areas of business are financial, publishing, and business services.
A type of mass spectroscope in which ions pass along a line of symmetry between four parallel cylindrical rods; an alternating potential superimposed on a steady potential between pairs of rods filters out all ions except those of a predetermined mass. Also known as Massenfilter.
Industry:Chemistry
Interference microscopy technique utilizing the Sabattier effect in photographic emulsions; the equidensities (lines of equal density in a photographic emulsion) are produced by exactly superimposing a positive and a negative of the same interferogram, and making a copy; used to measure photographic film emulsion density.
Industry:Chemistry
The position and spread of a solute within a series of tubes in a liquid-liquid extraction procedure. Also known as zone.
Industry:Chemistry
The analysis of a gas, liquid, or solid sample or mixture to identify the elements, radicals, or compounds composing the sample.
Industry:Chemistry
A technique used to determine the degree of ion bonding by protein; the protein solution, placed in a bag impermeable to protein but permeable to small ions, is immersed in a solution containing the diffusible ion whose binding is being studied; after equilibration of the ion across the membrane, the concentration of ion in the protein-free solution is determined; the concentration of ion in the protein solution is determined by subtraction; if binding has occurred, the concentration of ion in the protein solution must be greater.
Industry:Chemistry
A method for measurement of absorption peaks for quantitative analysis of chemical compounds in which a base line is drawn tangent to the spectrum background; the distance from the base line to the absorption peak is the absorbence due to the sample under study.
Industry:Chemistry
The analysis of a gas, liquid, or solid sample or mixture to determine the precise percentage composition of the sample in terms of elements, radicals, or compounds.
Industry:Chemistry
Recirculating distillation apparatus (no product withdrawal) used to determine vapor-liquid equilibria data.
Industry:Chemistry
In mineral identification, a test in which borax is fused to a transparent bead, by heating in a blowpipe flame, in a small loop formed by platinum wire; when suitable minerals are melted in this bead, characteristic glassy colors are produced in an oxidizing or reducing flame and serve to identify elements.
Industry:Chemistry
A platinum wire in a saturated solution of quinhydrone; used as a reversible electrode standard in pH determinations.
