What's the difference between polarimeter and polariscope?
Polarimeter
Definition:
(n.) An instrument for determining the amount of polarization of light, or the proportion of polarized light, in a partially polarized ray.
Example Sentences:
(1) The biosensor is a polarimeter that measures the rotation of plane polarized light proportional to glucose concentration.
(2) Common polarimeters defined the concentration of an optically active sample by measuring the intensity of the light beam after it has passed through the analyser.
(3) We used a flow polarimeter to investigate the factors influencing P of fluorescein in mammalian cells to determine whether such measurements are useful for characterizing heterogeneous cell populations.
(4) The procedure requires 0.5 mL of amniotic fluid and a standard clinical laboratory fluorescence polarimeter (TDx Analyzer, Abbott Laboratories).
(5) Using an Abbott TDX polarimeter and fluorescein - labelled angiotensin I as a tracer we measured angiotensin I by F.P.I.A.
(6) We describe a fluorescence polarization assay for use in predicting fetal lung maturity, which is suitable for the TDx Analyzer (an automated fluorescence polarimeter).
(7) The recent development of laser-based polarimeters with microdegree sensitivity has increased the applicability of optical rotation detection in HPLC.
(8) A polarimeter was used as a detector to determine the enantiomer elution orders.
(9) The analog output of a polarimeter was digitized and stored on a microcomputer disk.
(10) The CSF polarimeter showed a significant rise soon after the intravenous loading of glucose (1-30 min) but a longer lag time (45-60 min) between the peak blood glucose and peak CSF polarimeter reading.
(11) Anesthetized, adult dogs underwent intravenous glucose loading, and these preliminary in vivo studies resulted in good correlation (r = 0.98) between CSF polarimeter readings and CSF glucose by laboratory assay.
Polariscope
Definition:
(n.) An instrument consisting essentially of a polarizer and an analyzer, used for polarizing light, and analyzing its properties.
Example Sentences:
(1) The mechanisms by which the solitary lag screw transferred functional loading were observed and recorded in a circular polariscope.
(2) The polariscopic examination of isolated shoulder joint capsules shows that the entire capsule does not have a homogeneous collagen structure.
(3) 26 shoulders are studied by polariscopic and histologic examination.
(4) The posts were removed, the teeth were sectioned, and stresses were measured with a circular polariscope.
(5) The stress trajectories were observed and photographed in a circular polariscope.
(6) The resulting stresses were observed and photographed in the field of a circular polariscope.
(7) The models constructed with these materials were examined in photoelastic polariscope and fringes occurred due to the force applied were photographed and analyzed.
(8) Special stains were used and polariscopic studies were performed, and the hyalin material met the established criteria for amyloid.
(9) The purpose of this study was to examine the effects of intramedullary self-reinforced polyglycolic acid (SR-PGA) implant to the femoral bone growth in a growing dog by using radiographic, microradiographic, oxytetracycline-fluorescence, histological, polariscopical and histomorphometric studies.
(10) Under a standardized cantilever load, the stress patterns were photographed in the field of a circular polariscope.
(11) Each 4-mm abutment (15 degrees, 25 degrees, and 35 degrees from Implant Innovations (West Palm Beach, FL) and 0 degree and 30 degrees from Nobelpharma) was assembled on the fixture, subjected to 178N load, and viewed with a circular polariscope.
(12) Examining tissues polariscopically clearly distinguishes starch granules from other objects of similar appearance.
(13) Two-dimensional photoelastic analysis of birefringent models, under load in a polariscope, indicated the relative stress magnitudes and concentrations at the cervical and apical regions.
