  "term": "Mechanization",
  "field": "Chemistry",
  "definition": "The application of machines and automated devices to perform tasks previously done manually, particularly in analytical chemistry. This involves using mechanical systems to handle samples, reagents, and instruments, reducing human intervention in repetitive operations. It often leads to increased sample throughput and improved reproducibility in laboratory settings.",
