Various medical devices (such as catheters and guide wires) need hydrophilic coatings to reduce friction for maneuvering through blood vessels. They did so by studying hydrophilic, lipophilic, free-soluble and insoluble-bound phenolic extracts, using a lipoxygenase/4-nitroso-N,N-dimethylaniline (LOX/RNO) technique.
The clock rate typically refers to the frequency at which a chip like a CPU(central processing unit), one core of a multi-core processor, is running and is used as an indicator of the processor's speed. It is measured in the SI unit hertz.
The central processing unit (CPU) is the computer component that's responsible for interpreting and executing most of the commands from the computer's other hardware and software. All sorts of devices use a CPU, including desktop, laptop, and tablet computers, smartphones... even your flat-screen television set.
