| product surveillance, postmarketing | Surveillance of drugs, devices, appliances, etc., for efficacy or adverse effects, after they have been released for general sale. (12 Dec 1998) |
| secondary product | <plant biology> End product of plant cell metabolism, which accumulates in or is secreted from, the cell. Includes anthocyanins, alkaloids, etc. Some are of major economic importance, for example as drugs. In contrast to a primary product that is involved in the vital metabolism of the plant.

| substitution product | A product obtained by replacing one atom or group in a molecule with another atom or group. (05 Mar 2000) |
| double product | The product of systolic blood pressure multiplied by the heart frequency; a measure of heart work load. See: Robinson index. (05 Mar 2000) |
| trade name product | <pharmacology> Trademarked proprietary preparations containing the generic substance. Some foreign trade name products have been selectively included here due to the relative popularity of the generic medication. (17 Mar 1998) |

| allogeneic inhibition | Inhibition or injury to allogeneic cells that occurs when lymphocytes are mixed and cultured with other cells of different genotypes in vitro. (05 Mar 2000) |
| macrophage inhibition factor | <cytokine> A group of lymphokines (including a 14 kD glycoprotein) produced by activated T lymphocytes that reduces macrophage mobility and probably increases macrophage macrophage adhesion. (18 Nov 1997) |
| macrophage migration inhibition test | A test which measures the presence of migration-inhibitory factor. Usually peritoneal macrophages are placed in a capillary tube in the presence or absence of supernatants from activated T-cells. If MIF is present, the migration of monocyte/macrophages is reduced. Synonym: macrophage migration inhibition test, migration inhibition test. (05 Mar 2000) |
| reactive inhibition | Tendency toward a lessened strength of response due to practice or activity. It is independent of the effect of reward and is a direct function of time interval since the last response and the number of preceding responses. (12 Dec 1998) |
