1931 J. W. Brown in C. A. Mitchell Recent Adv. Analytical Chem. II. xv. 304 Developments in the application of general macro-scale chemical methods of qualitative and quantitative analysis to amounts of material 50, 100 or 1,000 times smaller.

1941 J. H. Reedy Elem. Qualitative Anal. (ed. 3) 2 Formerly chemical analysis was carried out on a ‘macro’ scale, using considerable amounts of material.

1964 N. G. Clark Mod. Org. Chem. xxiv. 496 Quantitative analysis was originally designed to be performed on a sample of 0·4–1·0 g for each elemental determination (only carbon and hydrogen are estimated on the same sample); this is called the macro-scale.

It is easier to predict where the future population will settle in one generation than what type of house, or dress, a certain lady is going to like next year.

1970 Interior Design Dec. 767/1 Nevertheless, changes will occur, of course, but on a micro- not macro~scale.

1988 J. Gleick Chaos (U.K. ed.) 260 Energy in natural systems exists on two levels: the macroscales, where everyday objects can be counted and measured, and the microscales.
