  • (20) The advantages of the titrimetric method include simplicity, rapidity, convenience, sensitivity, reproducibility and specificity, whereas the gravimetric method is tedious and time-consuming.

Volumetric


Definition:

  • (a.) Of or pertaining to the measurement of volume.

Example Sentences:

  • (1) Volumetric ratio between the thyroid epithelium and colloid did not changed.
  • (2) A compensator connected to the section consisting of the pump-main line-operating member and including a pneumatic resistance and a flaxid non-elastic container enables it in combination with the feedback to maintain through the volumetric displacement of the gas, or changing the pump diaphragm position, the stability of the gas volume in the pneumatic transmission element of the assisted circulation apparatus.
  • (3) The observers ranked three-dimensional shaded images higher than the other types, with three-dimensional volumetric images second and three-dimensional surface images ranked third.
  • (4) Although changes in circumference are most often used, volumetric changes have been reported to be more sensitive and thus more effective.
