| 설명 | 적혈구의 기능은 산소를 운반하는데 있다. 적혈구 속에 산소와 결합을 하여 산소를 운반하는 혈색소라는 물질이 있다. 철은 이 혈색소의 중요한 부분을 이루는 것으로 철이 없으면 혈색소가 만들어질 수가 없다. 혈색소가 없으면 역시 적혈구도 만들어지지 않으므로 체내에 철이 부족하면 빈혈이 생긴다. 이 철결핍성 빈혈은 빈혈의 원인 중에서 가장 흔한 것이다(약 25%를 차지한다). 철저장량의 저하-결핍, 혈청철농도의 저하, 트란스페린량 상승, 트란스페린포화도의 저하, 혈색소농도 또는 헤마토크리트의 저하, 저색소성대적혈구를 특징으로 하는 빈혈로서, 생체 내에서 철이 장기에 걸쳐 결핍되며 그 때문에 혈색소 생산 감소에 의해 일어난다. 창자에서의 철흡수량 부족, 철의 수요 증대(유아기, 사춘기, 임신), 철소실과잉(출혈)에 의해 일어나며, 특히 사춘기에서 폐경기까지의 여성에게 많다. 증상으로서는 얼굴창백, 피로감, 피부창백, 손톱 변화(스푼 모양) 등을 나타낸다. 구강 영역에서는 혀의 접촉통, 발적, 건조감, 삼킴곤란을 수반하면 플러머-빈슨(Plummer-Vinson)증후군이라고 한다. 혈액 소견은 혈청철은 저하하며, 철결합능력의 상승, 저색소성 작은적혈구성을 나타낸다. |

| certified milk | Cow's milk that does not have more than the maximal permissible limit of 10,000 bacteria per ml at any time prior to delivery to the consumer, and that must be cooled to 10캜 or less and maintained at that temperature until delivery. (05 Mar 2000) |

| certified pasteurised milk | Cow's milk in which the maximum permissible limit for bacteria should not be more than 10,000 bacteria per ml before pasteurization and not more than 500 bacteria per ml after pasteurization; it must be cooled to 7.2캜 or less and maintained at that temperature until delivery.

| perhydrase milk | Milk treated by the addition of hydrogen peroxide. See: Budde process. (05 Mar 2000) |
| metabolised vitamin D milk | Milk produced by feeding irradiated yeast to cows; standardised to contain not less than 400 USP units per quart. (05 Mar 2000) |
| milk | 1. <physiology> A white fluid secreted by the mammary glands of female mammals for the nourishment of their young, consisting of minute globules of fat suspended in a solution of casein, albumin, milk sugar, and inorganic salts. "White as morne milk." 2. <botany> A kind of juice or sap, usually white in colour, found in certain plants; latex. See Latex. 3. An emulsion made by bruising seeds; as, the milk of almonds, produced by pounding almonds with sugar and water. 4. <zoology> The ripe, undischarged spat of an oyster. Condensed milk. See Condense, Milk crust, a special cell in the inner bark of a plant, or a series of cells, in which the milky juice is contained. See Latex. Rock milk. See Agaric mineral, under Agaric. Sugar of milk. The sugar characteristic of milk; a hard white crystalline slightly sweet substance obtained by evaporation of the whey of milk. It is used in pellets and powder as a vehicle for homeopathic medicines, and as an article of diet. See Lactose. Origin: AS. Meoluc, meoloc, meolc, milc; akin to OFries. Meloc, D. Melk, G.

| milk-alkali syndrome | <syndrome> A form of metabolic acidosis that can result from the excessive consumption of milk (calcium) and antacids (sodium bicarbonate) over a prolonged period of time. This can result in calcium deposits in the kidneys and body tissues. Symptoms include nausea, vomiting and weakness. May be seen as a complication of peptic ulcer therapy. (27 Sep 1997) |
| milk anaemia | A type of hypochromic microcytic anaemia, resulting from deficiency of iron, occurring in infants maintained on a milk diet for too long a time. (05 Mar 2000) |
| milk banks | Centres for acquiring, storing, and distributing human milk. (12 Dec 1998) |
| milk colic | Disease caused by the liberation of exotoxins of clostridium perfringens in the intestines of sheep, goats, cattle, foals, and piglets. Type b enterotoxaemia in lambs is lamb dysentery; type c enterotoxaemia in mature sheep produces "struck", and in calves, lambs and piglets it produces haemorrhagic enterotoxaemia; type d enterotoxaemia in sheep and goats is pulpy-kidney disease or overeating disease.

| milk corpuscle | One of the fat droplets in milk. (05 Mar 2000) |
| milk crust | Seborrhoea of the scalp in an infant. Synonym: milk crust, milk scall. (05 Mar 2000) |
| milk cyst | A retention cyst in the mammary gland resulting from closure of a lactiferous duct. Synonym: milk cyst. (05 Mar 2000) |
| milk ducts | The ducts, numbering 15 or 20, which drain the lobes of the mammary gland; they open at the nipple. Synonym: ductus lactiferi, canalicular ducts, galactophore, galactophorous canals, galactophorous ducts, mamillary ducts, mammary ducts, milk ducts, tubuli galactophori, tubuli lactiferi. (05 Mar 2000) |
| milk ejection | Reflex in which tactile stimulation of nipples causes release of oxytocin which causes myoepithelial cells surrounding mammary alveoli to contract and expel the milk. Applies to humans and animals. (12 Dec 1998) |
| milk-ejection reflex | Release of milk from the breast following tactile stimulation of the nipple; the afferent path is postulated to exist from the nipple to the hypothalamus; the efferent limb is represented by the neurohypophysial release of oxytocin into the systemic circulation; contraction of myoepithelial elements within the breast, caused by oxytocin, moves milk into the collecting ducts and toward the nipple. Synonym: let-down reflex, milk let-down reflex. (05 Mar 2000) |
