Blood leaks into tissues under the skin and causes the black-and-blue color. As bruises (contusions) heal, usually within 2 to 4 weeks, they often turn colors, including purplish black, reddish blue, or yellowish green. Sometimes the area of the bruise spreads down the body in the direction of gravity.
(KiloBits or KiloBytes per SECond) One thousand bits or bytes per second. Kbps is a measurement of peripheral data transfer or network transmission speed. The correct abbreviation is b for bits and B for bytes; however, b and B are often interchanged. See space/time, Mbps and Gbps. Lower Case b - Kbps, Kb/sec, Kb/s Kilobits per second is used to rate serial data transmission devices such as analog modems.
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia. Inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS) is a type of mass spectrometry which is capable of detecting metals and several non-metals at concentrations as low as one part in 10 15 (part per quadrillion, ppq) on non-interfered low-background isotopes.he variety of applications exceeds that of inductively coupled plasma atomic emission spectroscopy and includes isotopic speciation. Due to possible applications in nuclear technologies, ICP-MS hardware is a subject for special exporting regulations.
