Glassworkers are skilled craftspeople who custom fabricate glass, mirror, shower and bath enclosures and architectural aluminum. Their finished products are shipped to residential and commercial buildings for installation by the glaziers. Typically, glassworkers are employed in a production environment or fabricating facility working with glass and metal equipment. 2, record 1, English, - glass%20worker

... the scanning ion-conductance microscope(SICM)... scans a sample not with a metal or diamond tip but with a glass micropipette containing a tiny electrode. The workers immerse the sample and the pipette in a bath of electrolyte(such as a salt solution) and establish a voltage difference between the electrode within the pipette and another electrode in the bath. A current of ions tends to flow between the electrodes by way of the pipette opening, but when the pipette approaches the surface of the sample, the current weakens. It disappears altogether when the scanned pipette touches the sample, which blocks the opening. Equipped with a feedback mechanism that maintains a constant ion current through the pipette opening, the SICM can profile a sample's topography. The fineness of the pipette does limit the SICM's resolution to about. 2 micron(10 nanometers may eventually be feasible). 3, record 4, English, - scanning%20ion%2Dconductance%20microscope

The device is therefore best suited to more specialized functions - studying a living cell’s electrical behavior, for example. When a cell is stimulated, so-called ion channels in its membrane open and close, allowing tiny currents of ions to pass. Hansma hopes to detect individual ion channels and study their behavior once the SICM’s resolution has been improved. 3, record 4, English, - scanning%20ion%2Dconductance%20microscope

The test is performed by placing 300 mL of biodiesel in a 500-mL glass bottle. The sample is then set in a liquid or air bath or chamber at 40 °F for 16 hours. The sample is then allowed to come to room temperature(around 70 °F) and filtered through a 47-mm diameter and 0. 7-μm nominal pore-sized glass fiber filter under vacuum of 25 inches of mercury under atmospheric pressure. The time required to filter 300 ml of biodiesel is reported. 3, record 5, English, - cold%20soak%20filtration%20test
