The sedimentation rate or the ESR (erythrocyte sedimentation rate)is measured simply by recording how far the top of the Red Blood Cell layer has fallen (in millimetres) from the top of the serum layer in …

Sedimentation is a process by which heavier impurities present in liquid normally water settle down at the bottom of the container containing the mixture. The process takes some amount of time.

Sedimentation is the process by which the heavier components of a mixture settle down. For example, when a sand-water mixture is allowed to stand undisturbed for some time and sand settles at the …

Ribosomes Ribosomes are non-membrane-bound cell structures that serve as protein synthesis sites. They have nearly equal amounts of protein and a type of ribonucleic acid known as rRNA (ribosomal …

Filtration, Sedimentation and Decantation Filtration Filtration is the process of passing the mixture through a filter to remove the solid particles from the fluid components of the mixture. For instance, if …

Sedimentation is the process of the heavier component in a mixture settling down after adding water to it. Decantation is removing the the water, along with dust.

Sedimentation: Sedimentation is a separation method that is used to separate solid-liquid mixtures in which particle sizes vary from each other. In sedimentation the mixture is allowed to stand due to …

Types of Ribosomes Two types of ribosomes have been identified based on the sedimentation coefficient, which is measured in Svedberg Units or S units. The sedimentation coefficient is the …

A suspension is defined as a homogenous mixture of particles with a diameter greater than 1000 nm such that the particles are visible to naked eyes. In this type of mixture, all the components are …

Decantation is the process of separation of liquid from solid and other immiscible (non-mixing) liquids, by removing the liquid layer at the top from the layer of solid or liquid below.
