Sample size  

Definition

  • Size of the sample. Relevant in case of solid/mixture samples. Mainly needed to evaluate whether the sample fits a certain measurement. Regardless of the shape, the sample size can be approximated (e.g. the diameter of a cylinder can be indicated as sizeX and sizeY). Not intended to be used for the container of a liquid/gasous sample (use holder or carrier size in this case).
