| immunologic factors | Biologically active substances whose activities affect or play a role in the functioning of the immune system. (12 Dec 1998) |
|---|---|
| immunologic high dose tolerance | Induction of tolerance by exposure to large amounts of protein antigens. (05 Mar 2000) |
| immunologic memory | <immunology> The ability to rapidly produce large quantities of specific immune cells after subsequent exposure to a previously encountered antigen. (09 Oct 1997) |
| immunologic pregnancy test | A general term for test's for detection of increased human chorionic gonadotropin in plasma or urine by immunologic techniques including latex particle agglutination, haemagglutination inhibition, radioimmunoassay, and radioreceptor assays. (05 Mar 2000) |
| immunologic surveillance | The theory that T-cells monitor cell surfaces and detect structural changes in the plasma membrane and/or surface antigens of virally or neoplastically transformed cells. (12 Dec 1998) |
| immunologic tests | Diagnostic techniques involving the demonstration or measurement of an immune response, including antibody production or assay, antigen-antibody reactions, serologic cross-reactivity, delayed hypersensitivity reactions, or heterogenetic responses. (12 Dec 1998) |
| immunologic tolerance | Lack of immune response to antigen. Theories of tolerance induction include clonal deletion and clonal anergy. In clonal deletion, the actual clone of cells is eliminated whereas in clonal anergy the cells are present but nonfunctional. Synonym: immunological tolerance, immunotolerance, nonresponder tolerance. (05 Mar 2000) |
| airbrasive technique | A method of grinding, cutting tooth structure, or roughening the natural tooth surface or the surface of a restoration, by means of a device utilizing a gas-impelled jet of fine Al203 particles which, after striking the tooth, are removed by an aspirator. See: microetching technique. (05 Mar 2000) |
| air-gap technique | Chest radiography performed using a space between the subject and film instead of a grid to absorb scattered radiation; usually requires a target-film distance of 10 feet. (05 Mar 2000) |
| aseptic technique | <procedure> A method used by microbiologists and clinicians to keep cultures, sterile instruments and media, and people free of microbial contamination. (09 Oct 1997) |
| atrial-well technique | An obsolete semi-closed surgical technique for repairing atrial septal defects and other cardiac abnormalities. (05 Mar 2000) |
| Barcroft-Warburg technique | An apparatus for measuring the oxygen consumption of incubated tissue slices by manometric measurement of changes in gas pressure produced by oxygen absorption in an enclosed flask. Synonym: Barcroft-Warburg apparatus. (05 Mar 2000) |
| Begg light wire differential force technique | An orthodontic appliance utilizing small gauge labial wires with expansion and contraction loops formed into it and attached to bands fitted to individual teeth; sometimes called Begg light wire differential force technique. (05 Mar 2000) |
| Berk Sharp technique | <molecular biology, procedure> A technique of genetic mapping in which mRNA is hybridised with single stranded DNA and the nonhybridised DNA then digested with S1 nuclease, the residual DNA that hybridised with the messenger is then characterised by restriction mapping. (18 Nov 1997) |
| bone demineralization technique | Removal of mineral constituents or salts from bone or bone tissue. Demineralization is used as a method of studying bone strength and bone chemistry. (12 Dec 1998) |
