molecular mass the mass of a molecule in daltons, derived by addition of the component atomic masses. Its dimensionless equivalent is molecular weight.

relative molecular mass technically preferable term for molecular weight. Symbol M r.

molecular mass,

the mass of a molecule of a substance as compared with the mass of an atom of carbon-12. It is equal to the sum of the masses of its constituent atoms and is measured in daltons. Formerly called molecular weight. See also atom, atomic mass, molecule.

molecular mass,

n See molecular weight.

New pheromone helps female fruit flies tell potential mates to 'buzz ... by Asian News International In addition, the hydrolysate fractions with an average molecular mass of less than 2,000 Da significantly retarded the ice recrystallization process, suggesting that the ability to inhibit ice crystallization was related to the molecular mass of gelatin hydrolysate peptides. Use gelatin hydrolysate as a natural ice modulator by Emerging Food R&D Report The characteristics of H-type and L-type BSE (6,13) that were sought included 1) a higher or lower molecular mass of unglycosylated PrPres with core antibodies in H-type and L-type BSE compared with C-type BSE, 2) a lower proportion of diglycosylated PrPres in L-type BSE, and 3) presence of an additional band at [approximately equal to] 14 kDa with SAF84 in H-type BSE.
