Sec

Example Sentences:

  • (17) (2) The Bunsen-Roscoe Law of Reciprocity was found to hold for the photoinduction of fruiting bodies for the interval 36 to 2000 sec with light of 448 nm.
  • (18) We studied the effects of 16,16-dimethyl prostaglandin E2 (dm-PGE2) and sofalcone, a new antiulcer agent developed in Japan, on ethanol damage to isolated surface epithelial cells (SEC) in vitro and gastric mucosa of rats in vivo.
  • (19) However, 80% or more of PGE2-Me was hydrolyzed rapidly and recovered as PGE2 in the brain within 15 sec post-injection.
  • (20) Twenty watts constant wave Nd-YAG laser operating at 1.06 micron was enough to produce complete A-V block in approximately 15 sec.
