Plus les systèmes seront petits (microparticules, nanoparticules, micelles et agrégats, macromolécules), plus les interactions avec les éléments constituant les milieux vivants seront importantes. L'étude de ces interactions est capitale dans un domaine qui devrait ouvrir la porte à l'exploitation de substances artificielles bioactives (surfaces organiques ou minérales, macromolécules bioactives, systèmes dégradables et biodégradables, etc.) ou furtives, c'est-à-dire capable d'éviter une reconnaissance par les défenses naturelles des organismes vivants. 3, record 2, French, - microparticule

Aitken nuclei. The microscopic particles in the atmosphere which serve as condensation nuclei for droplet growth during the rapid adiabatic expansion produced by an Aitken dust-counter. These nuclei, often numbering many tens of thousands per cubic centimeter in city air, are both solid and liquid particles whose diameters are of the order of tenths of microns or even smaller. 3, record 3, English, - microscopic%20particle

Les particules inframicroscopiques. Elles constituent le plus petit élément des "aérosols" atmosphériques. Leur taille peut descendre au-dessous de 10 [angstrom]. On les dénomme souvent particules (ou noyaux) d'Aitken. Leur diamètre moyen est à peine de 300 [angstrom]! Elles sont de composition inconnue, par suite de la masse infime qu'elles représentent par rapport aux autres constituants des poussières. 3, record 3, French, - particule%20microscopique
Record number: 3, Textual support number: 1 OBS
Sous ces termes on regroupe indistinctement toutes les particules dont le diamètre est inférieur aux poussières fines (d'un micron à .0005 micron) mais supérieur au diamètre des molécules elles-mêmes [.0002 micron]. 4, record 3, French, - particule%20microscopique
