| HCVS | human coronavirus sensitivity |
| primaquine sensitivity | Nonimmunological inborn sensitivity to primaquine, causing haemolysis on exposure to the drug, due to deficiency of glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase in red cells. (05 Mar 2000) |
|---|---|
| salt sensitivity | The tendency of certain bacterial suspensions to agglutinate spontaneously in physiological saline solution. (05 Mar 2000) |
| small increment sensitivity index | The sounding of a tone 20 dB above threshold, followed by a series of 200-msec tones 1 dB louder; perception of these is indicative of cochlear damage. Synonym: small increment sensitivity index test. (05 Mar 2000) |

| spectral sensitivity | The reciprocal of the amount of monochromatic radiation that produces a fixed response. (05 Mar 2000) |
| diagnostic sensitivity | The probability (P) that, given the presence of disease (D), an abnormal test result (T) indicates the presence of disease; i.e., P(T/D). See: clinical sensitivity. (05 Mar 2000) |
| disk sensitivity method | A procedure for testing the relative effectiveness of various antibiotics; small disks of paper (or other suitable material) are impregnated with known, appropriate amounts of antibiotic, and then placed on the surface of semisolid medium that has been previously inoculated with the organism being tested; after suitable periods of incubation at 37캜, the lack of growth in zones about the various disks indicates the relative effectiveness of the antibiotic. (05 Mar 2000) |
| DNAse i sensitivity | <molecular biology> The likelihood that a particular DNA segment will be attacked by the endonuclease enzyme DNase I, which breaks down DNA into smaller fragments by cleaving its phosphodiester bonds. DNA segments which contain active genes that are regularly transcribed are more prone to being cut apart by DNase I than inactivated genes, because the inactivated genes are generally within condensed regions of the chromosome, while the active genes are in more open configurations for easy access for transcription. (09 Oct 1997) |
| idiosyncratic sensitivity | A type I allergic reaction (atopic). (05 Mar 2000) |
| induced sensitivity | 1. <immunology> A state of hypersensitivity induced by exposure to a particular antigen (allergen) resulting in harmful immunologic reactions on subsequent exposures, the term is usually used to refer to hypersensitivity to an environmental antigen (atopic allergy or contact dermatitis) or to drug allergy. The original meaning, now obsolete, included all states of altered immunologic reactivity, immunity as well as hypersensitivity. Gell and Coombs used the term allergic reaction to mean any harmful immunologic reaction causing tissue injury. 2. <study> The medical specialty dealing with diagnosis and treatment of allergic disorders. (18 Nov 1997) |
| oligomycin sensitivity conferral protein | <protein> The _ subunit of the ATP synthase, believed to link the F1 catalytic segment to the F0 proton conduction segment. Binds the toxin oligomycin. (18 Nov 1997) |
| sensitivity |
For diagnostic tests, the smallest amount of the target molecule that the assay can detect.

| sensitivity |
1. The minimum detection limit of an assay. 2. The degree to which a pathogen is susceptible to a drug. A virus that is not resistant to a drug is sensitive to that drug.

| sensitivity |
An operating characteristic of a diagnostic test that measures the ability of a test to detect a disease (or condition) when it is truly present. Sensitivity is the proportion of all diseased patients for whom there is a positive test, determined as the number of true positives divided by the sum of true positives + false negatives. (Contrast with specificity.)
