| immunofluorescence method | Any method in which a fluorescent-labelled antibody is used to detect the presence or determine the location of the corresponding antigen. (05 Mar 2000) |

| anticomplement immunofluorescence | A technique used to make certain indirect fluorescent antibody techniques more specific and sensitive. Here the fluorescent dye is conjugated to antibody directed at complement and then added to a complement-fixing complex of antigen and patient antibody. (05 Mar 2000) |
|---|---|
| avidin-biotin immunofluorescence | Holds promise for more sensitive and specific amplification of indirect fluorescent antibody procedures. Antibody to the patient's specific antibodies is labelled with biotin, a compound capable of specifically binding avidin in high concentrations. Fluorescent labelled avidin is then added and fluorescent microscopy is used to detect the presence of the complexes. (05 Mar 2000) |
| micro-immunofluorescence | Several different substrates are arranged in specific locations on a single microscope slide well allowing a rapid, simultaneous indirect fluorescent antibody on each substrate. (05 Mar 2000) |
| immunofluorescence | <technique> A test or technique in which one or other component of an immunological reaction is made fluorescent by coupling with a fluorochrome such as fluorescein, phycoerythrin or rhodamine so that the occurrence of the reaction can be detected as a fluorescing antigen-antibody complex. Used in microscopy to localise small amounts of antigen or specific antibody. (18 Nov 1997) |
| indirect immunofluorescence | <procedure> A method of immunofluorescence staining in which the first antibody, that is directed against the antigen to be localised, is used unlabelled and the location of the first antibody is then detected by use of a fluorescently labelled antiIgG (against IgGs of the species in which the first antibody was raised). The advantage is that there is some amplification and a well characterised goat antirabbit IgG antibody can, for example: be used against a scarce specific antibody raised in rabbits. The same technique can be used for ultrastructural localisation of the first antibody by substituting peroxidase or gold labelled second antibody. (18 Nov 1997) |
| Abbott's method | A method of treatment of scoliosis by use of a series of plaster jackets applied after partial correction of the curvature by external force. (05 Mar 2000) |
| Abell-Kendall method | A standard method for estimation of total serum cholesterol involving saponification of cholesterol ester by hydroxide, extraction with petroleum ether, and colour development with acetic anhydride-sulfuric acid; the method avoids interference by bilirubin, protein, and haemoglobin. (05 Mar 2000) |
| activated sludge method | A method of sewage disposal in which the sewage is treated with 15% bacterially active, liquid sludge, which is produced by repeated vigorous aeration of fresh sewage to form floccules or sediment; when this flocculation process is complete, the resulting activated sludge contains large numbers of bacteria, together with yeasts, molds, and protozoa, which actively effect the oxidation of organic compounds; this mixture is piped to a sedimentation tank, the effluent from which is completely treated sewage.

| Altmann-Gersh method | The method of rapidly freezing a tissue and dehydrating it in a vacuum. (05 Mar 2000) |
| Anel's method | Ligation of an artery immediately above (on the proximal side of) an aneurysm. (05 Mar 2000) |
| Antyllus' method | Ligation of the artery above and below an aneurysm, followed by incision into and emptying of the sac. (05 Mar 2000) |
| aristotelian method | A method of study that stresses the relation between a general category and a particular object. (05 Mar 2000) |
| Ashby method | A differential agglutination method for estimating erythrocyte life span; compatible blood possessing a group factor that the recipient lacks is transferred to the recipient; after the transfusion, sera with potent agglutinins for the recipient's red cells are added to samples of the recipient's blood, and the unagglutinated red cells are counted; using this technique the red cell life span in normal persons is found to be 110 to 120 days. (05 Mar 2000) |
| auxanographic method | A method for the study of bacterial enzymes in which agar is mixed with the material (e.g., starch or milk) which is to serve as an indicator of the enzyme action and is inoculated and plated; if the bacteria produce enzymes digesting the admixed material, there will be a zone of clearing in the medium about each colony. Synonym: diffusion method. (05 Mar 2000) |
| Barraquer's method | Zonulysis Dissolution of the zonula ciliaris by enzymes (alpha-chymotrypsin) to facilitate surgical removal of a cataract. Synonym: Barraquer's method. Origin: zonule + G. Lysis, dissolution (05 Mar 2000) |
