La direction à assistance électrique est un système dans lequel un moteur électrique situé sur la colonne de direction, sur le pignon ou sur la crémaillère assiste le conducteur pour le braquage des roues. Des capteurs mesurent des paramètres tels que l'angle volant ou la vitesse du véhicule. Ces informations sont transmises à un calculateur qui évalue, en temps réel, l'assistance optimale à apporter au conducteur par le moteur électrique. 1, record 2, French, - direction%20%C3%A0%20assistance%20%C3%A9lectrique

El sistema de dirección asistida eléctrica se compone principalmente de un motor eléctrico, accionado por una unidad de control electrónica(UCE) y una serie de sensores de captación e información de cualquier acción del sistema direccional para generar la servoasistencia correspondiente de la dirección. [...] Este sistema es la combinación entre el accionamiento mecánico del volante de la dirección y elaccionamiento eléctrico de asistencia de la cremallera de la dirección. 2, record 2, Spanish, - direcci%C3%B3n%20asistida%20electr%C3%B3nica

A method of gel electrophoresis used to separate fragments of DNA as long as several million bases by subjecting the gel to an electrical current alternately delivered from two angles in timed intervals, which minimizes diffusion of large molecules. 8, record 3, English, - pulsed%20field%20gel%20electrophoresis
Record number: 3, Textual support number: 1 CONT
Pulsed field gel electrophoresis, like other DNA electrophoresis techniques, separate DNA fragments by size, using an electrical field to force fragments to move through a gel medium. The larger fragments take longer to move through the gel, so the electrophoresis process applied must not only use alternating fields but must also last longer. 9, record 3, English, - pulsed%20field%20gel%20electrophoresis

Record number: 3, Textual support number: 1 CONT
L'électrophorèse en champ pulsé est utilisé pour séparer des fragments de taille supérieure à 20 kb. Le principe de cette électrophorèse consiste à changer l'orientation et/ou la polarité du champ électrique alternativement au cours du temps. À chaque modification du champ, la molécule d'ADN doit se réorienter parallèlement au nouveau champ. Le temps nécessaire à la réorientation est proportionnel à la longueur de la molécule. Lorsque le champ est rétabli dans son sens initial, la molécule doit une nouvelle fois se réorienter. Ces temps de réorientation provoquent un retardement de la migration nette qui est proportionnel à la taille de la molécule. Le support de migration est un gel d'agarose à 1% et la taille des fragments séparés est de l'ordre de 50 kb à qq mégabases. 5, record 3, French, - %C3%A9lectrophor%C3%A8se%20en%20champ%20puls%C3%A9
