| agaropectin | A polysaccharide found in agar preparations consisting of d-galactose linked b1,3 glycosidically. Some of the galactosyl units are sulfated. (05 Mar 2000) |
| agarose | <chemical> This linear galactan is created by purifying agar, when it is heated and cooled, it forms a gel that is used as a support for many types of electrophoresis and immunodiffusion (agarbiose). A typical gel is about 1% agarose. Agarose is more porous than acrylamide and is sold in different grades, the lower its sulphate content, the more highly purified it is. (06 May 1997) |
| agarose gel electrophoresis | <procedure> A type of electrophoresis that uses a matrix of highly purified agar to separate large nucleotides in size. (06 May 1997) |
| agastric | <physiology> Having to stomach, or distinct digestive canal, as the tapeworm. Origin: Gr. Priv. + stomach. Source: Websters Dictionary (01 Mar 1998) |

It is from ten to seventy years, according to climate, in attaining maturity, when it produces a gigantic flower stem, sometimes forty feet in height, and perishes. The fermented juice is the pulque of the Mexicans; distilled, it yields mescal. A strong thread and a tough paper are made from the leaves, and the wood has many uses. Origin: L. Agave, prop.
