| absorption |
The traversal of nutrients from the small intestine through the cells lining the small intestine and subsequently into the blood vessels. It includes the process within the small intestine of breakdown of ingested food into fats, proteins (amino acids) and carbohydrates. Specific areas of the small intestine then absorb these nutrients through the cell walls.

| absolute neutrophil count |
The number of neutrophils in the blood, measured by cells per cubic millimeter. ANC is determined by adding the percentage of neutrophils in the blood with the percentage of bands in the blood, multiplying that number by the white blood count and dividing the product by 100. This number represents the amount of neutrophils, which are available for defending the body at the time of the blood test. A normal ANC for a non-neutropenic person is generally within the range of 1800-7000.
