Examples

“Velocitization refers simply to deceptive speeds possible on a modern expressway.”

“Velocitization is a special danger when leaving a freeway. You may misjudge your speed on the exit ramp and come suddenly upon traffic stopped at a junction point connecting a lower speed roadway.”

“To prevent velocitization, the feeling of going slower than you really are, keep checking the speedometer while you drive.”

“A single gradient (part B) usually will suffice, although to obtain maximum purity (e.g., for use as a probe), a velocitization step (part D) and a second CsCl-PI gradient (part E) are added. The velocitization differs from equilibrium gradients in that molecules are pelleted at a rate proportional to their size and largeley independent of conformation.”

“For most enzymatic manipulations, including restriction endonuclease digestion, end-labelling, nick translation, or primer extension labelling (random priming), it is usually not necessary to perform the velocitization and final gradient steps.”

“A velocitization is sometimes used between two density-gradient ultracentrifugations to [19] mitochondrial genomics 317.”
