Micrometers in a sentence

Coarse particles are between 2.5 micrometers and 10 micrometers and fine particles measure 2.5 micrometers and less.

Capillaries have no smooth muscle surrounding them and have a diameter less than that of red blood cells ; a red blood cell is typically 7 micrometers outside diameter, capillaries typically 5 micrometers inside diameter.

In unhomogenized cow's milk, the fat globules have an average diameter of two to four micrometers and with homogenization, average around 0.4 micrometers.

These included PM2.5 — which stands for particulate matter less than 2.5 micrometers in diameter — nitrogen dioxide (NO2), nitric oxide (NOx) and sulfur dioxide (SO2).

Aerosol spread occurs when respiratory droplets produce tiny particles, measuring less than five micrometers, which is smaller than a particle of pollen.

Alternatively, a susceptible host may inhale aerosol particles consisting of the residual solid components of evaporated respiratory droplets, which are smaller than 5 micrometers.

At the moment, the printer can create structures of up to two centimeters in size, with a precision level of 80 micrometers — which is approximately the width of a human hair.

Using high-speed video, they found that saying a simple phrase generated hundreds of droplets ranging from 20 to 500 micrometers.

The biggest cause of this calamity is fine particles – atmospheric particulate matter (PM) that has a diameter of less than 2.5 micrometers.

A useful feature of many micrometers is the inclusion of a torque-limiting device on the thimble—either a spring-loaded ratchet or a friction sleeve.

Ball micrometers with a pair of balls can be used when single-tangential-point contact is desired on both sides.

Bench micrometers of the "super-mic" class entirely obviate this interuser variation by having the user dial the handwheel until a needle reads zero on a gauge, producing the same pressure on every reading.

Carbon dioxide is not as strong a greenhouse gas as water vapor, but it absorbs energy in wavelengths (12-15 micrometers) that water vapor does not, partially closing the "window" through which heat radiated by the surface would normally escape to space.

Dendrites typically branch profusely, getting thinner with each branching, and extending their farthest branches a few hundred micrometers from the soma.

Electron microscopy main Until the invention of sub-diffraction microscopy, the wavelength of the light limited the resolution of traditional microscopy to around 0.2 micrometers.

Evaluation and characterization of ceramic microstructures is often implemented on similar spatial scales to that used commonly in the emerging field of nanotechnology: from tens of angstroms (A) to tens of micrometers (µm).

For example, many aerodynamics applications deal with aircraft flying in atmospheric conditions, where the mean free path length is on the order of micrometers.

For instance, the soma of a neuron can vary from 4 to 100 micrometers in diameter. citation *The soma is the body of the neuron.

For many years, conodonts were known only from enigmatic tooth-like microfossils (200 micrometers to 5 millimeters in length citation ), which occur commonly, but not always in isolation, and were not associated with any other fossil.

For micrometers this is their typical accuracy range.
