What's the difference between cimeter and dimeter?
Cimeter
Definition:
(n.) See Scimiter.
Example Sentences:
(1) These results suggest that the CIMET-induced reduction in bone mineralization, eggshell quality, and plasma 25-OHD3 levels could be due to interference of CIMET with vitamin D3 metabolism in vitamin D3-replete laying hens.
(2) Final BW and feed intake were not significantly affected by either CIMET or vitamin D3 level.
(3) In another study in which chicks were fed a diet with 1,100 ICU vitamin D3, lowering the dietary Ca, or P, or both did not result in any effect of CIMET on the chicks.
(4) Shell quality decreased in CIMET-treated hens fed the higher vitamin D diet even though 250-HD3 plasma levels were three times higher than in hens fed the lower vitamin D diet, suggesting that CIMET affected shell quality through some mechanism other than inhibition of 250-HD3 synthesis.
(5) Feeding 500 and 750 mg of CIMET significantly decreased total egg production in hens fed either level of vitamin D3, but no differences were observed at lower CIMET levels.
(6) These were significantly reduced as the CIMET level increased for birds fed the low vitamin D3 diet but were not significantly affected when fed the high D3 diet.
(7) The results indicate that CIMET possibly interferes with normal bone formation in chicks by altering vitamin D3 metabolism.
(8) Tibia ash decreased significantly in hens fed 150 to 750 mg of CIMET, regardless of the vitamin D3 level.
(9) The interaction between vitamin D3 and CIMET was significant for BWG, FCB, TA, and TBF.
(10) Good results of clinical follow-up of patients with cermet dentures coated with cimet (glass ceramic) permit recommending this type of coating for wide practical use.
(11) Eggshell breaking force, shell thickness, and percentage shell weight were decreased significantly by CIMET in all experiments; however, in one experiment, shell quality recovered by Week 8.
(12) Because previous studies indicated that cimetidine (CIMET) and isoniazid (ISON) may inhibit vitamin D metabolism in both rats and humans, experiments were conducted to evaluate the influence of these drugs on growth and bone development in male broiler chicks.
(13) The effects of feeding 0, 150, or 300 ppm CIMET were also investigated when chicks were fed 200 or 1,000 ICU per kg vitamin D3.
Dimeter
Definition:
(a.) Having two poetical measures or meters.
(n.) A verse of two meters.
Example Sentences:
(1) The measurement filters are made of FPP-15 material with dimeter measuring 80 mm.
(2) Further evidence for the dimetic nature of the enzyme was obtained by gel electrophoresis of the enzyme treated with dimethylsuberimidate and sodium dodecyl sulfate.
