| spallation product | An atomic species produced in the course of the spallation of any atom. (05 Mar 2000) |
|---|---|
| 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) |
| end product | <biochemistry> The final product of after a series of reactions with enzymes in a biochemical metabolic pathway has taken place. (09 Oct 1997) |
| end product repression | Catabolite repression in which the catabolite is an end product of a particular pathway. (05 Mar 2000) |
| fission product | An atomic species produced in the course of the fission of a larger atom such as 235U. (05 Mar 2000) |
| 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) |
| reciprocal inhibition | Contraction in a muscle is accompanied by a loss of tone or by relaxation in the antagonistic muscle. Synonym: reciprocal inhibition. (05 Mar 2000) |
| reflex inhibition | A situation in which sensory stimuli decrease reflex activity. (05 Mar 2000) |
| cell migration inhibition | Phenomenon of cell-mediated immunity measured by in vitro inhibition of the migration or phagocytosis of antigen-stimulated leukocytes or macrophages. Specific assays have been developed to estimate levels of migration-inhibitory factor, immune reactivity against tumour-associated antigens, and immunosuppressive effects of infectious microorganisms. (12 Dec 1998) |
| central inhibition | <physiology> Suppression or diminution of outgoing impulses from a reflex centre. (05 Mar 2000) |
