English

Subject field(s)
  • Dactyloscopy
  • Law of Evidence
CONT

Many agencies use the Gyro method of annotating the features. This colour coded system allows the examiner to indicate their confidence in finding those features in a known fingerprint. Green indicates a high level of confidence, yellow is for moderate confidence and red for a low level of confidence... The GYRO markings can provide support for opinions reached during the evaluation.

OBS

GYRO is an acronym for green-yellow-red-orange.

Subject field(s)
  • Scientific Research Methods
CONT

[The] method, called bioluminescence resonance energy transfer(BRET), uses a bioluminescent luciferase that is genetically fused to one candidate protein, and a green fluorescent protein mutant fused to another protein of interest. Interactions between the two fusion proteins can bring the luciferase and green fluorescent protein close enough for resonance energy transfer to occur, thus changing the color of the bioluminescent emission.

Cupping is one of the coffee tasting techniques used by cuppers to evaluate coffee aroma and the flavor profile of a coffee.... In a coffee cupping session, the table is usually set up with 6 to 10 cups per coffee. These are fashioned in a triangular manner. At the top of this triangle you should place a sample of the roasted coffee and a sample of the green coffee. In the center of the table place a cup of room temperature water and an empty cup containing the cupping spoons. Cover both the green sample and roasted sample until the cupping session is over and the coffee aroma, fragrance, and flavor profile have been documented. After this time, the coffee samples could be uncovered and additional comments can be written based on appearance. This method will help reduce the common "eye cupping" technique.

Domaine(s)
  • Boissons (Industrie de l'alimentation)
CONT

[...] le cupping désigne la dégustation de café. Il s’agit d’une technique utilisée par les professionnels du café pour déterminer les caractéristiques d’un café spécifique, pour déceler des défauts et pour composer de nouveaux mélanges.

Moreover, in the microbial method, mucilage removal under water gave coffees with more fruity, floral and caramel notes, whereas dry mucilage removal gave more neutral coffees. These results confirmed the importance of microbial mucilage removal under water and tallied with the results of our previous study on green coffee.

  • Gemmology

CONT

Synthetic diamond. A man-made diamond, produced either by subjecting carbon-bearing material such as graphite to high temperature and pressure or by the chemical vapor deposition(CVD) method. The Swedish company Allmana Svenska Elektriska Aktiebolaget(ASEA) is believed to have achieved the first repeatable synthesis of diamond in 1953, but their results were not published at the time; General Electric Company(GE) announced a successful synthesis of diamonds in 1954, followed by De Beers in 1959. Colors range from black to dark green, light green, red, yellow, blue, and colorless(Type IIa diamonds). Millions of carats of industrial-quality synthetic diamond are now manufactured annually using high pressure techniques; gem quality synthetic diamonds have been produced experimentally by De Beers Diamond Research Laboratories, General Electric Company...

French

Domaine(s)
  • Gemmologie
  • Industrie diamantaire
CONT

Les diamants synthétiques sont fabriqués à partir de graphite et d'isotopes de carbone. La méthode de fabrication de ces synthèses repose sur les conditions de cristallisation naturelles du diamant, c'est-à-dire des températures entre 1700 °C et 2760 °C avec 10 T/cm², et ce pendant plusieurs mois.

CONT

[...] depuis 2003, la société américaine Génésis propose pour quelques milliers de dollars un diamant de synthèse jaune de 1,5 carat, forgé en trois jours et demi, comparable aux diamants naturels, mais trois fois moins cher.

Subject field(s)
  • Radiological Physics (Theory and Application)
CONT

X-ray powder diffraction analysis(XRPD) was proven to be a very powerful tool for the study of "green stone" Neolithic axes and other artifacts. The amount of material to be sampled can be reduced to a few milligrams, thus making it a quasi-non destructive method.... If the dimension of an object is adequate(up to 60 cm in bulk, depending upon the shape) it can be directly analyzed, by XRPD, without sampling. Even a rough, irregular surface, both on flat and bent objects, is suitable for the analysis. The XRPD analysis is, therefore, totally non-destructive and is obviously very adapt to analyze many different materials, such as pigments, stones, ceramics, metals, patinas, salts efflorescences etc.

CONT

Mr. Bill Waite, a member of the Parks and Recreation Advisory Board... presented the new green space fee schedule and requested that it be approved. He explained the proposed fee schedule represented an increase of one hundred percent.... He... explained the green space fees were used dominantly either for acquisition of land or development of existing park areas. Mr. Waite explained the Parks Board was also recommending a change in the method of collection of such fees. He pointed out that, in large scale developments, the developer was required to pay the fee in three installments upon approval of final plat and within two years thereafter. He recommended all green space fees be tied to the inssuance of a building permit.

CONT

The board unanimously voted to amend village codes and put in place a new building permit and green space fees. The monies raised by those fees will go towards park and green space improvements.
