| advanced concepts torus i | <physics> A steady-state toroidal device built primarily for studies of RF heating and RF current drive. Acronym: ACT I (09 Oct 1997) |
| advanced fuels | <radiobiology> There are several elements or isotopes that could be fused together, besides the DT fuel mixture. Many such fuel combinations would have various advantages over DT, but it is generally more difficult to achieve fusion with these advanced fuels than with the DT mix. (09 Oct 1997) |

| advanced toroidal facility | <physics> A large stellarator device developed at Oak Ridge National Lab (ORNL), but now retired. Acronym: ATF (09 Oct 1997) |
| glycosylation end products, advanced | Products derived from the nonenzymatic reaction of glucose and proteins in vivo that exhibit a yellow-brown pigmentation and an ability to participate in protein-protein cross-linking. These substances are involved in biological processes relating to protein turnover and it is believed that their excessive accumulation contributes to the chronic complications of diabetes mellitus.
