What's the difference between hydropneumatic and medium?
Hydropneumatic
Definition:
(a.) Pertaining to, or depending upon, both liquid and gaseous substances; as, hydropneumatic apparatus for collecting gases over water or other liquids.
Example Sentences:
(1) Hydropneumatic overpressure polymerization leads to a considerable rationalization of the processing of stomatological cold-curing plastics, but its effects on the course of polymerization and the properties of the polymerizate are yet not sufficiently elucidated.
Medium
Definition:
(n.) That which lies in the middle, or between other things; intervening body or quantity. Hence, specifically: (a) Middle place or degree; mean.
(n.) See Mean.
(n.) The mean or middle term of a syllogism; that by which the extremes are brought into connection.
(n.) A substance through which an effect is transmitted from one thing to another; as, air is the common medium of sound. Hence: The condition upon which any event or action occurs; necessary means of motion or action; that through or by which anything is accomplished, conveyed, or carried on; specifically, in animal magnetism, spiritualism, etc., a person through whom the action of another being is said to be manifested and transmitted.
(n.) An average.
(n.) A trade name for printing and writing paper of certain sizes. See Paper.
(n.) The liquid vehicle with which dry colors are ground and prepared for application.
(a.) Having a middle position or degree; mean; intermediate; medial; as, a horse of medium size; a decoction of medium strength.

(5) Because cystine in medium was converted rapidly to cysteine and cysteinyl-NAC in the presence of NAC and given that cysteine has a higher affinity for uptake by EC than cystine, we conclude that the enhanced uptake of radioactivity was in the form of cysteine and at least part of the stimulatory effect of NAC on EC glutathione was due to a formation of cysteine by a mixed disulfide reaction of NAC with cystine similar to that previously reported for Chinese hamster ovarian cells (R. D. Issels et al.
(6) The penetration of (22)Na was not prevented by the presence of metabolic inhibitors or by 500 mm NaCl in the suspending medium.
(7) Maximal yields of lipid and aflatoxin were obtained with 30% glucose, whereas mold growth, expressed as dry weight, was maximal when the medium contained 10% glucose.
(8) Systolic blood pressure dropped following clonidine, showing a significantly greater drop for the medium and high doses than for the low dose.
(9) No significant fatty acid binding by proteins was detected in S. cerevisiae, even when grown on a fatty acid-rich medium, thus indicating that such proteins are not essential to fatty acid metabolism.
(10) In 2012, 20% of small and medium-sized businesses were either run solely or mostly by women.
(11) TR was classified as follows: severe (massive systolic opacification and persistence of the microbubbles in the IVC for at least 20 seconds); moderate (moderate systolic opacification lasting less than 20 seconds); mild (slight systolic opacification lasting less than 10 seconds); insignificant TR (sporadic appearance of the contrast medium into the IVC).
