Source: Tamara M. Powers, Department of Chemistry, Texas A&M University The glovebox provides a straightforward means to handle air- and moisture-sensitive solids and liquids. The glovebox is what it sounds like: a box with gloves attached to one or more sides, which allows the user to perform manipulations within the glovebox under an inert atmosphere. For manipulations under inert atmospheres, chemists can choose between Schlenk or high-vacuum techniques and a glovebox. Schlenk and...

The laser heated diamond anvil cell combined with synchrotron micro-diffraction techniques allows researchers to explore the nature and properties of new phases of matter at extreme pressure and temperature (PT) conditions. Heterogeneous samples can be characterized in situ under high pressure by 2D mapping and combined powder, single-crystal and multigrain diffraction approaches.

Balance Sheet

A balance sheet is a key component of financial statement analysis. It provides a snapshot of a company's financial position at a given time by listing its assets, liabilities, and shareholders' equity. It includes both current and long-lived assets and current and long-term liabilities. Assets reflect what the company owns, such as cash, inventory, and real estate, whereas liabilities represent what the company owes, including debts like loans and accounts payable. Balance sheet analysis is...

A novel technique to record the pressures within the skull is described. The minimally invasive method uses a fibre-optic pressure sensing system to accurately measure intracranial pressure (ICP) in anaesthetized rats without causing significant brain trauma. The technique may be used in a wide range of experimental models.
FAQs
Compression changes the electrical resistance or capacitance of individual sensing elements. Connected electronics interpret these changes across the array, showing which locations experience contact and how strongly. Because measurements can be tracked over time, the resulting data can represent both the spatial distribution of force and changes in that distribution during movement or interaction.
Pressure distributions can show where force is concentrated and how it shifts across the measurement surface. These patterns help quantify posture, weight shifts, locomotion, and contact behavior. Tracking the timing of changes adds a dynamic dimension, allowing researchers to examine how an animal or other subject changes movement or support in response to conditions.
A pressure sensor sheet provides objective measurements of contact location and force distribution, whereas visual observation may require researchers to infer these properties from movement. The sheet can also collect contact data without extensive restraints. This combination supports more direct analysis of motor behavior, interactions, and changes in physical support.
Researchers position the flexible measurement surface where contact or force application occurs and connect its sensing array to electronics. As the subject moves, rests, or interacts with the surface, the system records changes in the sensing elements. These measurements can then be organized into spatial and time-dependent pressure patterns for behavioral analysis.
The recorded data can describe the location, strength, distribution, and timing of applied force. In behavior studies, these measurements support analysis of posture, locomotion, weight shifts, and contact patterns. Researchers can examine individual pressure maps or follow how force changes over time to characterize movement and interactions more objectively.
The method is useful when researchers need quantitative evidence of physical contact, support, or force redistribution during behavior. Applications include studying motor behavior, locomotion, posture, social interactions, and responses to environmental conditions. Because the surface can measure contact directly without relying solely on visual inference, it helps connect observed actions with measurable force patterns.
