    A simple fraction (also known as a common fraction or vulgar fraction, where vulgar is Latin for "common") is a rational number written as a / b or ⁠ ⁠, where a and b are both integers. [ 9] As with other fractions, the denominator ( b) cannot be zero. Examples include ⁠ 1 2 ⁠, − ⁠ 8 5 ⁠, ⁠ −8 5 ⁠, and ⁠ 8 −5 ⁠.

  4. Fractionation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fractionation

    Fractionation is a separation process in which a certain quantity of a mixture (of gasses, solids, liquids, enzymes, or isotopes, or a suspension) is divided during a phase transition, into a number of smaller quantities ( fractions) in which the composition varies according to a gradient. [ 1][ 2] Fractions are collected based on differences ...

    List of representations of e. List of representations of. e. The mathematical constant e can be represented in a variety of ways as a real number. Since e is an irrational number (see proof that e is irrational ), it cannot be represented as the quotient of two integers, but it can be represented as a continued fraction.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Volume_fraction

    In chemistry and fluid mechanics, the volume fraction is defined as the volume of a constituent Vi divided by the volume of all constituents of the mixture V prior to mixing: [ 1] Being dimensionless, its unit is 1; it is expressed as a number, e.g., 0.18. It is the same concept as volume percent (vol%) except that the latter is expressed with ...

    SCN5A. Sodium channel protein type 5 subunit alpha, also known as NaV1.5 is an integral membrane protein and tetrodotoxin -resistant voltage-gated sodium channel subunit. Na V 1.5 is found primarily in cardiac muscle, where it mediates the fast influx of Na + -ions (I Na) across the cell membrane, resulting in the fast depolarization phase of ...
