Assays of biochemical systems are carried out on a large scale in both industry and academia, so it is desirable to have an apparatus that allows these assays to be performed in a convenient and inexpensive fashion. Because they are relatively easy to handle and low in cost, microplates are often used for such studies. Microplates typically consist of a plurality of individual wells formed of polymeric materials. Each well includes sidewalls and a bottom so that an aliquot of a sample may be placed within each well. The wells may be arranged in relatively close proximity in a matrix pattern, allowing samples to be studied individually or as a group. Common sizes for microplates include matrices having dimensions of 4x6(24 wells) or 8x12(96 wells), although larger microplates are also used that may include matrices of hundreds or even thousands of wells. 9, record 1, English, - microplate

rearrangement : A type of chemical reaction in which the atoms of a single compound recombine, usually under the influence of a catalyst, to form a new compound having the same molecular weight but different properties....

Recent laboratory research suggests that memory distortions canbe reduced using a retrieval monitoring process called the distinctivenessheuristic... This heuristic is used when one correctly rejects an item as having been studied in a target source because that item does not bring to mind detailed recollections that would be expected if it had been studied in that source. 2, record 4, English, - distinctiveness%20heuristic

Cette heuristique se rapporte à un mode de réponse influencé par le rappel de détails précis au sujet des événements précédemment expérimentés. Une incapacité à se rappeler des informations distinctives relatives à un item présenté suggère que cet item est nouveau. Les heuristiques distinctives sont des processus de métacognition, elles exigent des sujets une introspection au sein de leur mémoire (par exemple, «si j'avais vu cette image, je pense que je m’en souviendrais»). 1, record 4, French, - heuristique%20distinctive

In addition to environmental conditions during the operations on the surface of Mars the MIDD will have to be able to sustain the loads which occur prior to deployment from the lander. Since recent and currently studied designs for Mars landers in many cases use a "semi-hard" landing technique, the shock incurred during impact on the surface becomes the driver for sizing and qualification of components rather than the launch loads or the quasistatic loads during entry into the martian atmosphere. The MARS PATHFINDER lander, being the most prominent example of a semi-hard lander since it is the only one thus far having been built and flown, experienced an actual impact velocity of 18 m/s and a maximum deceleration(first bounce) of around 18 g, both values being lower than the hardware had been designed for. 2, record 5, English, - semi%2Dhard%20lander
