Roentgen is the unit used to measure and account for a biological effect.
1
rad (or gray)
Radiation dose in terms of the amount of the biological effect caused by the amount of energy absorbed
rem is an acronym for roentgen equivalent man, the unit used to measure the amount of radiation that results in the same amount of human tissue damage as that caused by one roentgen of X-rays.
A Sievert (check your spelling) is the SI unit of dose equivalent (the biological effect of ionizing radiation), equal to an effective dose of a joule of energy per kilogram of recipient mass. 1 Sievert is equal to about 100 Rem. If that did not mean anything to you, it is a measure of nuclear radiation.
Micropipettes are mechanical tools used in laboratories to accurately measure and transfer small volumes of liquid. They are not biological in nature as they do not possess any living components.
IU= international unit. This is a unit used to measure the activity (that is, the effect) of many vitamins and drugs. For each substance to which this unit applies, there is an international agreement specifying the biological effect expected with a dose of 1 IU. Other quantities of the substance are then expressed as multiples of this standard. This also means that this measurment is not based on sheer volume or weight of the substance, but rather the effect.
To measure small amounts of current in a circuit, it is utilized with the motor effect.
The standard unit of radiation related to biologic hazard is the Sievert (Sv). It is used to measure the potential biological damage caused by radiation exposure. It takes into account both the type of radiation and its effect on different tissues in the body.
An altimeter is an instrument to measure the altitude.
The Q10 value is a measure of how much a biological or chemical process increases for every 10-degree Celsius rise in temperature. It is commonly used to describe the temperature sensitivity of biological processes.
Indicates the effect on income if LIFO were not used.
