| replica plating | <technique> Technique for testing the genetic characteristics of bacterial colonies. A dilute suspension of bacteria is first spread, in a petri dish, on agar containing a medium expected to support the growth of all bacteria, the master plate. Each bacterial cell in the suspension is expected to give rise to a colony. A sterile velvet pad, the same size as the petri dish, is then pressed onto it, picking up a sample of each colony. The bacteria can then be stamped onto new sterile petri dishes, plates, in the identical arrangement. The media in the new plates can be made up to lack specific nutritional requirements or to contain antibiotics. Thus colonies can be identified that cannot grow without specific nutrients or that are antibiotic resistant and cells with mutations in particular genes can be isolated. (18 Nov 1997) |

| compression plating | A technique for internal fixation of fractures in which plates and screws are applied so as to produce compression of the line of fracture. (05 Mar 2000) |
| plating | 1. The art or process of covering anything with a plate or plates, or with metal, particularly of overlaying a base or dull metal with a thin plate of precious or bright metal, as by mechanical means or by electromagnetic deposition. 2. A thin coating of metal laid upon another metal. 3. A coating or defensive armor of metal (usually steel) plates. Source: Websters Dictionary (01 Mar 1998) |
| selective angiography | <procedure, radiology> Angiography in which visualization is improved by concentrating the contrast medium in the region to be studied by injection through a catheter positioned in a regional artery. (05 Mar 2000) |
| selective grinding | <dentistry> The modification of the occlusal forms of teeth by grinding according to a plan or by grinding at selected places marked by articulating ribbon or paper. (05 Mar 2000) |
| selective hypoaldosteronism | <endocrinology> Isolated hypoaldosteronism, aldosterone deficiency without a concomitant deficiency of glucocorticoid hormones. (05 Mar 2000) |
| selective immunoglobulin A deficiency | <immunology> An inherited disorder in which there is a markedly reduced or absent IgA, resulting in immature IgA-bearing B-cells. (05 Mar 2000) |
| selective inhibition | <chemistry> Inhibitor that occupies the active site of an enzyme or the binding site of a receptor and prevents the normal substrate or ligand from binding. at sufficiently high concentration of the normal ligand inhibition is lost: the Km is altered by the competitive inhibitor, but the Vmax remains the same. (05 Jan 1998) |
| selective injection | Injection of contrast medium following selective catheterization of a branch artery or vein for angiography. (05 Mar 2000) |
| selective medium | <cell culture> A medium which allows the growth of certain types of microorganisms in preference to others. For example: an antibiotic-containing medium allows the growth of only those microorganisms which are resistant to this antibiotic. (09 Oct 1997) |
| selective memory | <psychology> Reception or retrieval of only some of the events in an experience. (05 Mar 2000) |
| selective oestrogen-receptor modulator | <pharmacology> An antioestrogen which possesses some, but not all, of the actions of oestrogen. For example, raloxifene (evista) is classified as a SERM because it prevents bone loss (like oestrogen) and lowers serum cholesterol (like oestrogen) but (unlike oestrogen) does not stimulate the endometrial lining of the uterus. Acronym: SERM (17 Jul 2002) |
| selective reduction | <obstetrics> A technique for intrauterine termination of one or more foetuses while leaving one or more foetuses undisturbed, usually in pregnancies with foetal anomalies or with multiple gestations. (05 Mar 2000) |
| selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor | <pharmacology> This is a class of drug that are used as antidepressants. Functionally, they increase the levels of serotonin in the body. These drugs can be dangerous if they are mixed with other drugs such as other antidepressants, illicit drugs (LSD, cocaine, methamphetamine), some antihistamines (Seldane, Histmanal), some antibiotics, and calcium channel blockers. Side effects include lethargy, confusion, flushing, sweating and muscle spasms. Overdose can cause damage to red blood cells, breathing problems and kidney damage. Examples include: Prozac, Zoloft and Paxil. Acronym: SSRI (12 Jan 1998) |
| selective stain | <technique> A stain that colours one portion of a tissue or cell exclusively or more deeply than the remaining portions. (05 Mar 2000) |
