What's the difference between microspectroscope and spectroscope?
Microspectroscope
Definition:
(n.) A spectroscope arranged for attachment to a microscope, for observation of the spectrum of light from minute portions of any substance.
Example Sentences:
(1) The Raman microspectroscopic method was used to determine the local water and protein content in human lenses.
(2) On the basis of absorption microspectroscopic measurements and of inhibition experiments on pigment biosynthetic pathways, we have recently suggested that a rhodopsin could be the functional receptor of the visual process in Euglena gracilis, a flagellate which can use light directly to promote photosynthetic reactions, or as an incident flux of information to adjust its swimming orientation.
(3) Using biophysical (electronic spin resonance [ESR]), ultrastructural (microspectroscopic analysis), chemical (spectroscopy), and biological (cell culture) assays, HPA23 cellular and molecular mechanisms may be summarized as follows: 1) competitive inhibition of HIV-RT, 2) no or slight effect on cells infected with HIV in culture, 3) interactions with the cell membranes when long incubations are performed, and 4) antiviral activity possibly mediated by immune modulator effect of the drug.
Spectroscope
Definition:
(n.) An optical instrument for forming and examining spectra (as that of solar light, or those produced by flames in which different substances are volatilized), so as to determine, from the position of the spectral lines, the composition of the substance.
Example Sentences:
(1) The structures of 1 and 2 were established mainly on the basis of nmr spectroscopic data.
(2) The electron spectroscopic diffraction (ESD) mode of operation of an energy-filtering electron microscope offers the possibility of being able to avoid the background from inelastic scattering in selected-area electron diffraction patterns.
(3) This paper describes the combined use of energy calculations and spectroscopic data for the determination of peptide conformations in solution.
(4) The signals after lyophilization reflect biochemical differences between tumour and muscle; spectroscopic data indicate that it is feasible to determine the molecular basis of these differences.
(5) High resolution proton NMR spectroscopic analysis of urine also revealed resonances from several metabolites of hydrazine, an N-acetylcysteine conjugate of allyl alcohol, and acetamide as a metabolite of thioacetamide after dosing with the respective compounds.
(6) Tissue specimens of poisoned people were analysed for total mercury contents using the flameless atomic absorption spectroscopic technique.
(7) Based on its spectroscopic characteristics and X-ray crystallographic analysis of its bis-(1S)-(-)-camphanate, the structure of depudecin was determined to be (2R,3S,4S,5E,7S,8S,9R)-2,9- dihydroxy-3,4;7,8-diepoxy-undeca-5,10-diene.
(8) A recently developed rf echo planar imaging method has been modified to rapidly generate spectroscopic information along one in-plane axis and spatial information along the other.
(9) The interaction of berberine chloride with natural and synthetic DNAs of differing base composition and sequences was followed by various spectroscopic and viscometric studies.
(10) Electron energy-loss spectroscopic element-distribution images are acquired from cytochemical reaction products in a variety of cellular objects: (1) colloidal thorium particles in extra-cellular coat material, (2) iron-containing ferritin particles in liver parenchymal cells, (3) barium-containing reaction products in endoplasmic reticulum stacks, (4) elements present in lysosomal cerium- and barium-containing precipitates connected with acid phosphatase (AcPase) or aryl sulphatase (AS) enzyme activity.
(11) The process of decay of X1 to FMN involved another intermediate X1' with spectroscopic characteristics rather similar to those of FMN.
(12) A comparison study of nmr and cd spectra of quadrigemine C and hodgkinsine [3], a trimeric pyrrolidinoindoline substance, led us to suggest the stereochemistry of quadrigemine C. The structure and configuration of psycholeine was determined by spectroscopic means and chemical correlation with quadrigemine C. Psycholeine interacts with somatostatin receptors and exhibits a somatostatin antagonistic activity on GH secretion by pituitary cells in primary culture.
(13) Derivatives of the oligomer [d(GGAATTCC)]2 with 5' (5'-P), 3' (3'-P) and both 5' and 3' (5',3'-P2) terminal phosphate groups have been synthesized and studied by temperature dependent UV and NMR spectroscopic methods.
(14) Mössbauer spectroscopic studies of whole cells of Pseudomonas aeruginosa, grown under different conditions, indicate that the predominant form of iron in the cells varies significantly.
(15) The structures of the new compounds were determined by chemical and spectroscopic methods, including two-dimensional nuclear magnetic resonance (2D NMR) techniques, especially 1H-detected heteronuclear multiple-bond multiple-quantum coherence.
(16) Upon fluorescence spectroscopic examination, the enzyme from melanoma was shown to contain flavin adenine dinucleotide as previously shown in the enzymes from E. coli and rat liver.
(17) The structures were deduced from spectroscopic properties, especially from extensive NMR studies.
(18) They are calibrated or tested against a large body of experimental data, including extended basis set ab initio, quantum mechanical calculations, nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopic data and dipole moment data for di- and oligopeptides, characteristic ratio data for random coil homopolypeptides, extensive data from peptide solubility studies, and experimental structures of polyalanine fibres and globular proteins.
(19) The structure of the sesquiterpene was determined spectroscopically and confirmed by chemical synthesis.
(20) The value of the torsional modulus obtained from this analysis, C = 3.4 X 10(-19) erg cm, is from 10 to 40% larger than that estimated by others and more than twice as large as the values obtained from fluorescence depolarization or other time-resolved spectroscopic measurements.
