  2. Colony-forming unit - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Colony-forming_unit

    Colony-forming units are used to quantify results in many microbiological plating and counting methods, including: The pour plate method wherein the sample is suspended in a Petri dish using molten agar cooled to approximately 40–45 °C (just above the point of solidification to minimize heat-induced cell death).

  3. Barn (unit) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Barn_(unit)

    A barn (symbol: b) is a metric unit of area equal to 10 −28 m 2 (100 fm 2).This is equivalent to a square that is 10 −14 m (10 fm) each side, or a circle of diameter approximately 1.128 × 10 −14 m (11.28 fm).

  4. Specific surface area - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Specific_surface_area

    Specific surface area (SSA) is a property of solids defined as the total surface area (SA) of a material per unit mass, [1] (with units of m 2 /kg or m 2 /g). Alternatively, it may be defined as SA per solid or bulk volume [2] [3] (units of m 2 /m 3 or m −1).

    Comparison of 1 square metre with some Imperial and metric units of area. The square metre (international spelling as used by the International Bureau of Weights and Measures) or square meter (American spelling) is the unit of area in the International System of Units (SI) with symbol m 2. [1] It is the area of a square with sides one metre in ...

  7. Reciprocal length - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reciprocal_length

    Spatial frequency is a reciprocal length, which can thus be used as a measure of energy, usually of a particle. For example, the reciprocal centimetre, cm −1, is an energy unit equal to the energy of a photon with a wavelength of 1 cm. That energy amounts to approximately 1.24 × 10 −4 eV or 1.986 × 10 −23 J.

  8. Dose area product - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dose_area_product

    Dose area product (DAP) is a quantity used in assessing the radiation risk from diagnostic X-ray radiography examinations and interventional procedures, like angiography.It is defined as the absorbed dose multiplied by the area irradiated, expressed in gray-centimetres squared (Gy·cm 2 [1] – sometimes the prefixed units dGy·cm 2, mGy·cm 2 or cGy·cm 2 are also used). [2]

  9. Surface power density - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Surface_power_density

    where Pd is the power density in watts per square meter (one W/m 2 is equal to 0.1 mW/cm 2), H 2 = the square of the value of the magnetic field in amperes RMS squared per meter squared, E 2 = the square of the value of the electric field in volts RMS squared per meter squared. [6]
