| mitotic shake off method | <cell biology, procedure> A method of collecting cells in mitosis, so that the chromosomes can be examined and the karyotype determined. Many cultured cells round up during mitosis and so become less firmly attached to the culture substratum. Cells in mitosis thus can be removed into suspension by gentle shaking of the culture vessel, leaving the nonmitotic cells still attached. The number of cells that are in mitosis is usually increased by using a drug, such as colcemid that blocks mitosis at metaphase. (18 Nov 1997) |

To move from firmness; to weaken the stability of; to cause to waver; to impair the resolution of. "When his doctrines grew too strong to be shook by his enemies, they persecuted his reputation."

Shock. 1. The act or result of shaking; a vacillating or wavering motion; a rapid motion one way and other; a trembling, quaking, or shivering; agitation.

| shake test | A test for foetal pulmonary maturity, determined by the ability of pulmonary surfactant in amniotic fluid to generate stable foam in the presence of ethanol after mechanical agitation. Synonym: shake test. (05 Mar 2000) |
| scrape-off layer | <radiobiology> Outer layer of a plasma which is affected (scraped off) by a divertor or limiter. That is, the outer layer of a magnetically confined plasma (ca. 2 cm thick) where the field lines penetrate a material surface (limiter or divertor plate) rather than close upon themselves. This region defines the outer limit of the plasma because any plasma crossing into the SOL is rapidly lost since transport along the field is much faster than that across the field. That is, particles follow these field lines into the material surface and are lost from the plasma. (09 Oct 1997) |
| set-off | 1. That which is set off against another thing; an offset. "I do not contemplate such a heroine as a set-off to the many sins imputed to me as committed against woman." (D. Jerrold) 2. That which is used to improve the appearance of anything; a decoration; an ornament. 3. A counterclaim; a cross debt or demand; a distinct claim filed or set up by the defendant against the plaintiff's demand. Set-off differs from recoupment, as the latter generally grows out of the same matter or contract with the plaintiff's claim, while the former grows out of distinct matter, and does not of itself deny the justice of the plaintiff's demand. Offset is sometimes improperly used for the legal term set-off. See Recoupment. 4. Same as Offset. 5. See Offset. Synonym: Set-off, Offset. Offset originally denoted that which branches off or projects, as a shoot from a tree, but the term has long been used in America in the sense of set-off. This use is beginning to obtain in England; though Macaulay uses set-off, and so, perhaps, do a majority of English writers. Origin: Set + off. Source: Websters Dictionary (01 Mar 1998) |

| ordered on-random off mechanism | A scheme for substrate binding and product release for multisubstrate enzymes; for a two-substrate two-product enzyme with this mechanism, the individuals have to bind to the enzyme in a distinct order; however, once the products are formed they may dissociate from the enzyme in either order. It has been suggested that pyruvate kinase has such a mechanism. The random on-ordered off mechanism is simply the reverse of this mechanism. (05 Mar 2000) |
