What's the difference between exsiccate and exsiccator?

Exsiccate


Definition:

  • (v. t.) To exhaust or evaporate moisture from; to dry up.

Example Sentences:

  • (1) We studied the ultrasonographic and scintigraphic changes of thyroid gland of 81 goitreous patients before and after treatment with exsiccated thyroid.
  • (2) They suggest that the exsiccation of the stool and the low intensity of infections can explain the unfavourable results of the present clinical trial.
  • (3) It is conceivable, therefore, that our concepts of the mechanics of the ossicle-chain were partly based on experiments with insufficiently moistened temporal bone preparations, as the methodological problem of the exsiccation became known only during recent decades.
  • (4) In the process of embedding and polymerization the paper stripes having the baths are placed in the exsiccator with P2O5 and thermostate on special aluminium stands.
  • (5) Various experiments showed that plastic culture boxes may be sterilized by formaldehyde vapour in an exsiccator.
  • (6) This isodirectional motion also occurs with progressive exsiccation of the temporal bone preparations, explicable with drying and shrinking of the capsular ligament of the IM-joint.
  • (7) Exsiccation of the mucous lining, loss of kinaesthesia, development of local oedema and hyperplasia.
  • (8) Several preliminary experiments served to pinpoint methodological problems, like exsiccation-artifacts, storage procedures, preparation defects, missing air-cushion effect with the opened middle-ear cavity, absent labyrinthine pressure, relation of the optical axis to middle-ear structures and statistical reproducibility of the measured values.
  • (9) With the exception of symptoms produced by mucocutaneous exsiccation, no side effects were observed; the laboratory parameters were all within normal limits during the anti-acne treatment phase.
  • (10) Digoxin production was carried out in a variety of vessels, including 1-l exsiccators, 20-l glass reactors and a 300-l air-lift bioreactor.
  • (11) Use of skin cosmetics, virtually free from inorganic substances, can lead to a considerable reduction in skin flaking and prevention of exsiccation.

Exsiccator
