| Hensen's canal | A short membranous tube passing from the lower end of the saccule to the cochlear duct of the membranous labyrinth. Synonym: ductus reuniens, canaliculus reuniens, canalis reuniens, Hensen's canal, Hensen's duct, uniting canal. (05 Mar 2000) |

| Hensen's cell | One of the supporting cell's in the organ of Corti, immediately to the outer side of the cell's of Deiters. (05 Mar 2000) |
| Hensen's disk | <cell biology> The H band is an area within muscle tissue which is light when stained and consists only of myosin fibres (and no actin fibres). The H band is at the centre of each muscle sarcomere. (09 Oct 1997) |
| Hensen's duct | A short membranous tube passing from the lower end of the saccule to the cochlear duct of the membranous labyrinth. Synonym: ductus reuniens, canaliculus reuniens, canalis reuniens, Hensen's canal, Hensen's duct, uniting canal. (05 Mar 2000) |
| Hensen's knot | Synonym: primitive node. (05 Mar 2000) |
| Hensen's line | <cell biology> The H band is an area within muscle tissue which is light when stained and consists only of myosin fibres (and no actin fibres). The H band is at the centre of each muscle sarcomere. (09 Oct 1997) |
| Hensen's node | A local thickening of the blastoderm at the cephalic end of the primitive streak of the embryo. Synonym: Hensen's knot, Hensen's node, Hubrecht's protochordal knot, primitive knot, protochordal knot. (05 Mar 2000) |
| Hensen's stripe | A band on the undersurface of the membrana tectoria of the cochlear duct. (05 Mar 2000) |

| Victor-Michaelis-Menten equation | <chemistry> Equation derived from a simple kinetic model for a single-substrate non-cooperative enzyme-catalyzed reaction that successfully accounts for the hyperbolic adsorption isotherm) relationship between substrate concentration and reaction rate. V = Vmax x S/(S + Km), where V is the initial velocity of the reaction, Km is the Michaelis constant, Vmax is the maximum rate approached by very high substrate concentrations and S is the initial substrate concentration. Similar equations can be derived for conditions in which the product is present and for multisubstrate enzymes. Synonym: Victor-Michaelis-Menten equation. (12 Jul 2000) |
