Preferred Label : reducing;
Detailed label : reducing in analytical chemistry;
IUPAC definition : Decreasing the size of the laboratory sample or individual particles, or both. Division
of the size of the laboratory sample may be accomplished manually by coning and quartering
or by riffling or mechanically by rotary dividers. Reduction of particle size may
be accomplished by milling or grinding. Simultaneous division and reduction may also
be achieved with mills having stream diverters.;
