Malacology Those who study malacology are known as malacologists. Those who study primarily or exclusively the shells of mollusks are known as conchologists. More than 150 journals within the field of malacology are being published from more than 30 countries, producing an overwhelming amount of scientific articles. They include: Museums that have either exceptional malacological research collections (behind the scenes) and/or exceptional public exhibits of mollusks: Malacology Malacology is the branch of invertebrate zoology that deals with the study of the Mollusca (mollusks or molluscs), the second-largest phylum of animals in terms of described species after the arthropods. Mollusks include snails
Interface and colloid science and cannot be seen by the naked eye. They easily pass through filter paper. But colloidal particles are big enough to be blocked by parchment paper or animal membrane. Interface and colloid science has applications and ramifications in the chemical industry, pharmaceuticals, biotechnology, ceramics, minerals, nanotechnology, and microfluidics, among others. There are many books dedicated to this scientific discipline, and there is a glossary of terms "Nomenclature in Dispersion Science and Technology," published by the US National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST). Interface and colloid science Interface and colloid science is an interdisciplinary intersection of branches of chemistry, physics,
