| Gmelin's test | A test for bile in the urine or other body fluid; nitric acid, with a little nitrous acid, is cautiously added to a few milliliters of the material to be tested; if bile (bilirubin) is present, it is oxidised to varying degrees, thereby resulting in disklike zones that are (from the interface outward) yellow, red, violet, blue, and green; development of green and violet layers is essential to the validity of the test. Synonym: Rosenbach-Gmelin test. (05 Mar 2000) |
| pentagastrin test | An alternative to histamine for stimulation of acid secretion in gastric analysis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| Gofman test | A test for various serum lipoproteins that contain cholesterol, as an index of the tendency to the development of atheromatous lesions and arteriosclerosis; the test is based on the differential flotation of molecules of various sizes when the serum is treated in an ultracentrifuge. (05 Mar 2000) |
| Meltzer-Lyon test | A test used in diagnosis of gallbladder conditions: 25 ml of a 25% solution of magnesium sulfate are delivered into the region of the sphincter of Oddi through a duodenal tube, causing contraction of the gallbladder, relaxation of the sphincter, and the expulsion of bile from the common duct and gallbladder; bile from the common duct is relatively pale and is expelled first, that from the gallbladder follows; samples aspirated from the tube are examined for pus cells, pigment granules, epithelial cells, cholesterol, etc. (05 Mar 2000) |
| Goldscheider's test | Determination of the temperature sense by touching the skin with a sharp-pointed metallic rod, heated to varying degrees. (05 Mar 2000) |
| gold sol test | An obsolete, non-specific test for altered proteins in spinal fluid. As originally used by Lange in 1912, the test was thought to be specific for neurosyphilis; however, this proved to be incorrect. Dilutions of spinal fluid are made in saline and to these a colloidal gold solution is added; if altered proteins are present, there is a colour change or precipitate formed. at present, its chief use is to demonstrate cerebrospinal fluid protein abnormalities in multiple sclerosis. Synonym: gold sol test, Zsigmondy's test. (05 Mar 2000) |
| CF test | <immunology> Binding of complement as a result of its interaction with immune complexes (the classical pathway) or particular surfaces (alternative pathway). (18 Nov 1997) |
| Goodenough draw-alpha-man test | A brief test for assessing an individual's level of intelligence based on how accurately drawn and how many elements are included when a child or adult is given a pencil and sheet of white paper and asked to draw a man, the best man he or she is able to draw. Also called the Goodenough draw-alpha-person test and, in its current form, the Goodenough-Harris drawing test. (05 Mar 2000) |
| goodness of fit test | A statistical test of the hypothesis that data have been randomly sampled or generated from a population that follows a particular theoretical distribution. (05 Mar 2000) |
| Reuss' test | A test for atropine; the addition of oxidizing agents and sulfuric acid to a liquid containing atropine produces an odour of orange-flowers and roses. (05 Mar 2000) |
| Gothlin's test | <investigation> A capillary fragility test to determine the presence or absence of scurvy. (05 Mar 2000) |
| Rh blocking test | A test for nonagglutinating Rh antibodies: an Rh agglutination test is first carried out; if the test for Rh agglutinins is negative, then 1 drop of anti-Rho agglutinating serum of moderate titre is mixed with the patient's serum containing Rh-positive test cells; if after incubating for from 1 to 2 hr at 37캜 no agglutination occurs, Rho-blocking antibodies are assumed to be present in the patient's serum.

| Graham-Cole test | Radiography of the gallbladder after ingestion of a contrast medium. (12 Dec 1998) |
| chemotherapy drug sensitivity test | <investigation> A test to assess a cancerous tissue's response and vulnerability to chemotherapy drugs. This test can help predict a patients response to treatment and suggest which drugs may be useful. (16 Dec 1997) |
