What's the difference between cranium and separatory?

Cranium


Definition:

  • (n.) The skull of an animal; especially, that part of the skull, either cartilaginous or bony, which immediately incloses the brain; the brain case or brainpan. See Skull.

Separatory


Definition:

  • (a.) Separative.
  • (n.) An apparatus used in separating, as a separating funnel.
  • (n.) A surgical instrument for separating the pericranium from the cranium.

Example Sentences:

  • (1) The possibility of separating lipid materials on the basis of the number, type, and position of the unsaturated centers they contain, by virtue of the complexing of these unsaturated bonds with silver ions, provides a relatively recent but now very important addition to the range of separatory methods available to lipid chemists and biochemists.
  • (2) Samples were assayed in the absence and presence of excess GH using 2 separatory procedures.
  • (3) With this combined polyethylene glycol-second-antibody separatory method, the incubation time is shorter than the usual double-antibody separation procedure, but avoids the problem of high nonspecific precipitation, which occurs with polyethylene glycol alone.
  • (4) Neither sulfate columns nor separatory funnels are required, and no emulsions are formed.
  • (5) From these analyses, we conclude that precise quantitation of cholesterol "carriers" in bile awaits methods to accurately determine the intermicellar-intervesicular concentration of bile salts in any individual bile, as well as advances in nonperturbing separatory procedures, and methods to control the thermal and temporal history of native bile samples.
  • (6) A new technique in which polyethylene glycol is added to double-antibody assays of lutropin and follitropin eliminates the need for an incubation period during the separatory phase.
