  2. 1,3,5-Trinitrobenzene - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1,3,5-Trinitrobenzene

    Trinitrobenzene is more explosive than TNT, but more expensive. [2] It is primarily used as a high explosive compound for commercial mining and military applications. It has also been used as a narrow-range pH indicator, an agent to vulcanize natural rubber, and a mediating agent to mediate the synthesis of other explosive compounds.

  3. Ellman's reagent - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ellman's_reagent

    This reaction is rapid and stoichiometric, with the addition of one mole of thiol releasing one mole of TNB. The TNB 2− is quantified in a spectrophotometer by measuring the absorbance of visible light at 412 nm, using an extinction coefficient of 14,150 M −1 cm −1 for dilute buffer solutions, [4] [5] and a coefficient of 13,700 M −1 cm −1 for high salt concentrations, such as 6 M ...

  6. Unicameralism - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unicameralism

    Unicameralism (from uni- "one" + Latin camera "chamber") is a type of legislature consisting of one house or assembly that legislates and votes as one. [1] Unicameralism has become an increasingly common type of legislature, making up nearly 60% of all national legislatures [2] and an even greater share of subnational legislatures.

    This in turn makes it feasible to increase the chamber pressure, which increases efficiency. Potential disadvantages of the full-flow staged combustion cycle include more stringent materials requirements, and the increased engineering complexity and parts count of the two preburners, relative to a single-shaft staged combustion cycle.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrical_room

    Main electrical distribution room in a large building. The back of an antique electrical room, still operational at a US plant as of 2014. All conducting busbars are open and operators must be careful not to touch them.

  9. Artificial cardiac pacemaker - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Artificial_cardiac_pacemaker

    Each pulse causes the targeted chamber(s) to contract and pump blood, [3] thus regulating the function of the electrical conduction system of the heart. The primary purpose of a pacemaker is to maintain an even heart rate , either because the heart's natural cardiac pacemaker provides an inadequate or irregular heartbeat, or because there is a ...
