Trimethylamine N-oxide. Trimethylamine N-oxide (TMAO) is the organic compound in the class of amine oxides with the formula (CH3)3NO. This colorless solid is usually encountered as the dihydrate. It is a product of the oxidation of trimethylamine, a common metabolite in animals.
Prism fusion range. The prism fusion range (PFR) or fusional vergence amplitude is a clinical eye test performed by orthoptists, optometrists, and ophthalmologists to assess motor fusion, specifically the extent to which a patient can maintain binocular single vision (BSV) in the presence of increasing vergence demands.
To get energy from fusion, gas from a combination of types of hydrogen â deuterium and tritium â is heated to very high temperatures (100 million degrees Celsius). One way to achieve these conditions is a method called âmagnetic confinement' â controlling the hot gas (known as a plasma) with strong magnets.
