Term:
Shimadzu electronic balance post excision weight measurement
Use of a Shimadzu electronic balance for measuring the weight of an organ, tissue or other body part after it has been removed from the body. The weight of an object is its heaviness, that is, the force exerted on it by gravitational force which is proportional to its mass.
