With the difference frequency between oscillators adjusted to zero with pure carrier gas flowing through the detector, the presence of a foreign vapor in the cell will produce a different frequency which is linearly related to the amount of material introduced through an injection port in the carrier gas stream and inversely proportional to the absolute temperature for a given component at a constant density or concentration in the cell and for a particular operating frequency. 2, record 3, English, - Clapp%20oscillator

Type of chromatography developed following the observation that certain proteins were unexpectedly retained on affinity gels containing hydrophobic spacer arms. This concept was extended, and families of hydrophobic adsorbents prepared using a homologous series of hydrocarbon chains of different lengths. In practice most proteins can be satisfactorily purified using C-8 or phenyl substituents. Hydrophobic interactions are strongest at high ionic strength, so adsorption to a hydrophobic matrix can be conveniently performed after a salt precipitation or ion exchange chromatography step. Elution can be effected by altering the solvent ionic strength, pH, or composition or by the use of a dielectric constant modifier such as ethanediol. 2, record 4, English, - hydrophobic%20chromatography

When carrying out the hydrophobic chromatography of human urokinase ..., the solution containing the crude urokinase which is prepared from human urine in the usual simple method, is adjusted to a salt concentration of 0.2 to 2 M, preferably 0.2 to 1 M. The solution is then made to flow through the hydrophobic column packed with the protein adsorbent of this process.... The pH is not critical when carrying out the hydrophobic chromatography, however, the pH is usually adjusted to pH 5.5 to 10, preferably 6 to 8.5 at which pH urokinase is stable against inactivation. Purified urokinase can be obtained by treating the effluent from the hydrophobic column in a usual method, namely by lyophilization after desalting. 3, record 4, English, - hydrophobic%20chromatography

Air drying. The air supply to the ozonizer must be very dry because the presence of water vapour produces a drop in the dielectric constant of the gaseous medium, and in extreme cases the non-disruptive discharge may give way to the formation of an arc, resulting in rapid deterioration of the electrodes. 1, record 14, English, - air%20drying

Dessiccation de l'air. Il est indispensable que l'air d'alimentation de l'ozoneur soit très sec, en effet, du fait de la présence de vapeur d'eau, il se produit un abaissement de la valeur de la constante diélectrique du milieu gazeux, ce qui peut entraîner à la limite le passage du régime d'effluve à un régime d'arc, avec pour conséquence la détérioration plus ou moins rapide des électrodes. 1, record 14, French, - dessiccation%20de%20l%27air

Dielectric and electrostatic separation of rock-forming minerals is(...) undeveloped(...) BERG listed the dielectric constants of 38 minerals, determined at 880 volts, A. C., and a frequency of 60 cycles. Of these 38 minerals, only 22 have a dielectric constant between 3 and 4. The most important sediment-forming minerals belong in this group. 1, record 15, English, - dielectric%20separation
