| sucrase-isomaltase complex | <enzyme> An enzyme complex found in the brush border membranes of the small intestine. It is believed to be an enzyme complex with different catalytic sites. Its absence is manifested by an inherited disease called sucrase-isomaltase deficiency. Registry number: EC 3.2.1.- (12 Dec 1998) |

| synaptinemal complex | A submicroscopic structure interposed between the homologous chromosome pairs during synapsis. Synonym: synaptonemal complex. (05 Mar 2000) |
| synaptonemal complex | <cell biology> Structure, identified by electron microscopy, lying between chromosomes during synapsis, consists of two lateral plates closely apposed to the chromosomes and connected to a central plate by filaments. It appears to act as a scaffold and is essential for crossing over. (18 Nov 1997) |

| iron-dextran complex | <chemical> Iron dextran. A complex of ferric oxyhydroxide with dextrans of 5000 to 7000 daltons in a viscous solution containing 50 mg/ml of iron. It is supplied as a parenteral preparation and is used as a haematinic. (goodman and gilman's the pharmacological basis of therapeutics, 8th ed, p1292) Pharmacological action: haematinics.

| oedipus complex | Attachment of the child to the parent of the opposite sex, accompanied by envious and aggressive feelings toward the parent of the same sex. (12 Dec 1998) |
| Ornithodoros moubata complex | A group of four species in Africa; the taxonomy and ecology of this complex is of great significance because its members are vectors of relapsing fever spirochetes; members of the complex include Ornithodoros moubata (various hosts), Ornithodoros compactus (tortoises), Ornithodoros apertus (porcupines), and Ornithodoros porcinus (warthogs); a domestic subspecies of Ornithodoros porcinus, in turn, forms three strains that feed chiefly on humans, fowl, and swine.
