| alkaline milk drip | A variable mixture of sodium bicarbonate in whole milk dripped into the stomach through a small oral or nasal tube to produce constant achlorhydria; used in the treatment of certain ulcers. (05 Mar 2000) |

| alkaline phosphatase | <enzyme> An enzyme that catalyses the cleavage of inorganic phosphate non-specifically from a wide variety of phosphate esters and having a high (greater than 8) pH optimum. Found in bacteria, fungi and animals but not in higher plants. (18 Nov 1997) |
| alkaline protease | <enzyme> These proteases work best in the pH range of 8 to 11 and are used widelyin washing powders and to de-hair hides. Alkaline proteases are mainlyproduced by bacteria in the Bacillus species. (13 Nov 1997) |
| alkaline reaction | Any test by which an alkaline reaction is recognised, such as the change of red litmus paper to blue, an excess of hydroxide ions over hydrogen ions in aqueous solution as indicated by a pH value greater than 7 (at 22캜). Compare: dissociation constant of water. Synonym: basic reaction. (05 Mar 2000) |
| alkaline reflux gastritis | An inflammation of the gastric mucosa believed to be caused by irritating factors in bile. Synonym: alkaline reflux gastritis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| alkaline tide | A period of urinary neutrality or even alkalinity after meals due to withdrawal of hydrogen ion for the purpose of secretion of the highly acid gastric juice. Synonym: alkaline wave. (05 Mar 2000) |
| alkaline toluidine blue O | Toluidine blue O in borax solution, used with heat on semithick sections of epoxy embedded tissues. (05 Mar 2000) |
| alkaline water | A water that contains appreciable amounts of the bicarbonates of calcium, lithium, potassium, or sodium. (05 Mar 2000) |
| alkaline wave | A period of urinary neutrality or even alkalinity after meals due to withdrawal of hydrogen ion for the purpose of secretion of the highly acid gastric juice. Synonym: alkaline wave. (05 Mar 2000) |
| alkaline-ash diet | A diet consisting mainly of fruits, vegetables, and milk (with minimal amounts of meat, fish, eggs, cheese, and cereals), which, when catabolised, leave an alkaline residue to be excreted in the urine. Synonym: acid-ash diet, basic diet. (05 Mar 2000) |
| alkalinity | <chemistry> Measure of the power of a solution to neutralise hydrogen ions (H+), usually expressed as the equivalent concentration (mg/L) of calcium carbonate (CaCO3). (13 Nov 1997) |
| alkalinization | The process of rendering alkaline. Synonym: alkalinization. (05 Mar 2000) |
| alkalinuria | The passage of alkaline urine. Synonym: alkaluria. Origin: alkaline + G. Ouron, urine (05 Mar 2000) |
| alkaliphile | <microbiology> An organism that grows optimally at high pH (alkaline conditions). The typical pH range for alkaliphiles is 8 - 11. They grow poorly or not at all at a pH below 7. Compare: acidophile. (13 Nov 1997) |
| alkaliser | An agent that neutralises acids or renders a solution alkaline. (05 Mar 2000) |
| alkalimetry |
