11. In anneal metal, making it more malleable and flexible during the welding process. 12. Any two complementary cohesive ends can anneal , even those from two different organisms. 13. Unlike furnace anneals they are short in duration, processing each wafer in several minutes. 14. As a result, a vacuum anneal is needed to convert the oligomers to high polymer. 15. The DNA has a dumbbell-like structure as the ends fold in and self anneal . 16. An anneal may also be used to obtain the proper engineering properties required in the final workpiece. 17. A final anneal may also be used on the finished product to maximize ductility and electrical conductivity. 18. In each droplet, DNA template anneals to the P1-coupled bead from its A1 side. 19. After blanking we want to anneal these circles from H-18 to H-O temper. 20. A full anneal typically results in the second most ductile state a metal can assume for metal alloy.
