Lab-on-a-chip technology performs analyses in a fraction of a minute that would take hours with traditional laboratory methods , said Art Pontau , bio detection program manager at Sandia National Laboratories in Livermore , Calif. Sandia researchers have inserted the chips within small machines to function as sniffer dogs , detecting chemical agents released into the air . Larger mud balls ( looking deceptively like small stones ) may be found occasionally . Sources of foreign materials include inadvertent materials from the field ( e.g ., stones , metal , insects , undesirable vegetable matter , dirt , or small animals ) , inadvertent results from processing and handling ( e.g ., bone , glass , metal , wood , nuts , bolts , screening , cloth , grease , paint chips ) , materials entered during distribution ( e.g ., insects , metal , dirt , stones ) , materials intentionally placed in food ( employee sabotage ) , and miscellaneous sources ( e.g ., struvite ) .

You can have a gem of a [ small ] program . Seed quality is tested by determining the percentage of pure seeds relative to the percentage of contaminants such as weed or other crop seeds and inert matter ( e.g ., stems , chaff , small stones ) . These curious objects are called microliths ( meaning small stones ) , and the most common type is a Jaketown perforator . Having your ideas in gear ( as the one in authority ) - - whether you are stern or not - - is the most important thing because you have planned your " things to do " with what the kids need to learn and how in the long run ( with small goals ) your program is growing and getting stronger .
