0 to achieve equilibrium (= a state of balance) or to bring something into equilibrium:
The amounts of water associated with different types of water-binding sites were calculated for seed tissues equilibrated with different relative humidities.
Relative humidities (and water potentials) to which protein/sugar preparations were equilibrated are as indicated.
By contrast lipid soluble drugs pass rapidly across the placenta and equilibrate readily in the non-ionised unbound state.
Mutation and selection attempt to equilibrate to the equilibrium level, in this case due to mutation being stronger than selection.
Oocytes, zygotes and embryos to be treated were equilibrated in the mannitol solution for 2min before the test.
These observations can be explained by the fact that felsic granulite requires more fluid infiltration to equilibrate than mafic granulite and dolerite.
The preservation of abundant igneous plagioclase, however, indicates that the body largely failed to equilibrate at eclogite-facies conditions.
As the temperature rises the cryosolvent within the crystal becomes a liquid and the water on the surface equilibrates through the crystal.
