(n.) An idle talker; an irrational prater; a teller of secrets.

(n.) A name given to any one of family (Timalinae) of thrushlike birds, having a chattering note.
Example Sentences:
(1) Plasmodium tenue was seen in Garrulax canorus taewanus Swinhoe, a babbler: until now it was known only from the Pekin Robin (Leiothrix luteus Scopoli), also a babbler, in which we have found it extremely common.
(2) A combination of restriction analysis and direct sequencing via the polymerase chain reaction (PCR) was used to build trees relating mitochondrial DNAs (mtDNAs) from 50 individuals belonging to five species of Australian babblers (Pomatostomus).
(3) The mitochondrial tree shows broad concordance with that based on hybridization of nuclear DNA; however, parsimony and maximum likelihood methods suggest a close kinship between thrushes and Australian babblers, in agreement with the traditional morphological classification.
(4) Donald Trump has done pretty well for someone ridiculed by most of the liberal media as an incoherent babbler.
Bubbler
Definition:
(v. t.) To cheat; to deceive.
(n.) One who cheats.
(n.) A fish of the Ohio river; -- so called from the noise it makes.
Example Sentences:
(1) Linear equations were derived over the range of concentrations from 0.5 to 100 ppm SO2 for uncorrected iodate bubbler results, data corrected for tandem bubbler concentrations and data corrected for mean iodate bubbler efficiency.
(2) However, the bubbler oxygenating system is superior to the membrane and blood delivery systems in that it could administer cold cardioplegia at any time during the operation.
(3) Atmospheric air samples are collected in fritted midget bubblers containing aqueous sodium carbonate solution; wastewater samples are treated directly with sodium carbonate.
(4) The survey results showed fair agreement between the bubbler and tube methods in those instances where sufficient TNT was present to produce a measurable color in the diethylaminoethanol (DEAE).
(5) This system consists of an exposure chamber, a bubbler with a mass flow-meter, a monitor gas chromatograph and a computer.
(6) Flow-rate was corrected through a computer regulated bubbler as soon as the mean chamber concentration varied by more than 2.5% of a command level.
(7) The objective was to compare the currently recommended combination Tenax-plus-filter tubes with the older, colorimetric diethylaminoethanol bubbler method which was in use in July 1950 when the American Conference of Governmental Industrial Hygienists (ACGIH) published their first Threshold Limit Values (TLVs).
(8) Results from sampling in XAD-2 tubes were 8% lower than those from parallel sampling in midget bubblers containing 10 ml 0.01 M sodium hydroxide.
(9) In a bubbler method, HHPA was sampled in bubblers filled with 0.1 M sodium hydroxide solution.
(10) The HBS consists of a cylinder of carbon dioxide bled into the chamber via a flow regulator and a Vanadous bubbler to chemically remove oxygen from the chamber.
(11) The concentrations found by the solid sorbent method were 86-98% of those found by the bubbler method (range 15-160 micrograms HHPA per m3; relative humidity = less than 2-70%).
(12) Liquid impingers, filter papers, and fritted bubblers were partial viable collectors of radioactive submicron T1 bacteriophage aerosols at 30, 55, and 85% relative humidity.
(13) The aim was to evaluate the efficacy of passive samplers in comparison with the current NIOSH analytical procedure for determining ambient levels of hydrogen fluoride involving sample collection in a bubbler or an impinger with 0.1 M sodium hydroxide.
(14) Fifty-one patients admitted for routine coronary bypass operations were randomized to cardiopulmonary bypass with a membrane oxygenator (Capiox) or a bubbler (Polystan or William Harvey).
(15) Samples were collected by the stationary method and with personal samplers (Casella) where the membrane filter was connected with the bubbler filled with 0.1 M NaOH.
(16) The oxygen-carrying capacity of four delivery systems for blood and crystalloid cardioplegia was evaluated: nonoxygenated crystalloid cardioplegia, crystalloid cardioplegia oxygenated with a bubbler system and with a membrane system and, finally, blood cardioplegia delivered by the Shiley-Buckberg system.
(17) A comparison of the strengths and weaknesses of analytical (gas chromatography, chromogenic, colorimetric and electrochemical) and sampling (impregnated papers, solid sorbents, bubblers and evacuated cylinder) techniques is made.
