| 영문 | blood gas | 한글 | 혈액가스, 혈액기체 |
|---|---|---|---|
| 설명 | 혈액 속에 용해되어 있는 산소, 이산화탄소, 질소 따위의 기체. 혈액의 산성-염기성의 정도를 측정할 수 있다. |

| 영문 | blood test | 한글 | 혈액검사 |
|---|---|---|---|
| 설명 | 혈액형이나 질병 유무 따위를 알기 위하여 피를 뽑아 행하는 검사. 몸 전체의 장기나 조직에 병터가 있으면 이들 성분에 변화가 있게 되어 진단에 큰 도움을 준다. |

| 영문 | blood-brain barrier | 한글 | 혈액뇌장벽 |
|---|---|---|---|
| 설명 | 혈액으로부터 뇌로는 지질용해성이 높은 약물밖에 이행되지 않는다. 수용성의 약물을 뇌로 이행되지 않게 하고 있는 것이 혈액뇌장벽이며 뇌의 모세혈관 내피세포, 모세혈관 주위의 세포가 장벽이 되고 있다. 물질교환은 수동확산에 의해 이루어지지만, 뇌의 생리적 활동에 필요한 물질은 이온형이라도 담체를 통해 이행된다. |

| 영문 | blood volume | 한글 | 혈액량 |
|---|---|---|---|
| 설명 | 체내에 존재하는 혈액의 총량으로서, 보통 리터 또는 체중 1kg에 대하여 리터수로 표시한다. |
||
| 영문 | blood urea nitrogen | 한글 | 혈액요소질소 |
|---|---|---|---|
| 설명 | 요소는 아미노산의 탈아미노에 의해 생긴 암노니아와 탄산가스로부터 간에서 합성된다. 혈중에서는 혈장과 혈구의 물성분 안에 함유되어 있다. 혈액요소질소는 콩팥토리에서 여과되며 일부 요세관에서 재흡수되고, 나머지가 오줌중에 배설된다. 따라서 혈액요소질소는 콩팥기능의 저하에 따라 증가되지만, 식사단백질 섭취량, 조직붕괴, 위장관 출혈 등과 탈수 등 순환혈액량의 이상으로 변동된다. |

| anechoic chamber | A room designed to absorb all sound so as to eliminate all echoes; used for isolation and sound research on human subjects. (05 Mar 2000) |
|---|---|
| anterior chamber | The space in the eye, filled with aqueous humor, bounded anteriorly by the cornea and a small portion of the sclera and posteriorly by a small portion of the ciliary body, the iris, and that part of the crystalline lens which presents through the pupil. (12 Dec 1998) |
| anterior chamber cleavage syndrome | <syndrome> A congenital disorder originating from faulty separation of embryonic structures; it results in bilateral central corneal opacities, with an anterior ring attachment of the iridic pupillary border and anterior polar cataracts; associated with short-limbed dwarfism; autosomal dominant inheritance. See: iridocorneal endothelial syndrome. Synonym: Peters' anomaly. (05 Mar 2000) |
| anterior chamber of eye | The space between the cornea anteriorly and the iris/pupil posteriorly, filled with a watery fluid (aqueous humor) and communicating through the pupil with the posterior chamber. Synonym: camera anterior bulbi, camera oculi anterior, camera oculi major. (05 Mar 2000) |
| anterior chamber trabecula | Tissue at the angle of the anterior chamber through which aqueous humor exits from the eye. (05 Mar 2000) |
| baffle chamber | In incinerator design, a chamber designed to settle fly ash and coarse particulate matter by changing the direction and reducing the velocity of the combustion gases. (05 Dec 1998) |
| Boyden chamber | <apparatus> Simple chamber used to test for chemotaxis, especially of leucocytes. Consists of two compartments separated by a millipore filter (3-8 m pore size), chemotactic factor is placed in one compartment and the gradient develops across the thickness of the filter (ca 150 m). Cell movement into the filter is measured after an incubation period less than the time taken for the gradient to decay. See: checkerboard assay. (18 Nov 1997) |
| relief chamber | A recess in the impression surface of a denture to reduce or eliminate pressure from that specific area of the mouth. (05 Mar 2000) |
| vitreous chamber of eye | The large space between the lens and the retina; it is filled with the vitreous body. Synonym: camera vitrea bulbi, vitreous camera, vitreous chamber of eye. (05 Mar 2000) |
| chamber | A compartment or enclosed space. See: camera. Origin: L. Camera (05 Mar 2000) |
| posterior chamber of eye | The ringlike space, filled with aqueous humor, between the iris/pupil anteriorly and the lens and ciliary body posteriorly. Synonym: camera posterior bulbi, camera oculi minor, camera oculi posterior. (05 Mar 2000) |
| Haldane chamber | An obsolete chamber for metabolic studies on animals. (05 Mar 2000) |
| Sandison-Clark chamber | A chamber that can be fitted over a hole punched in a rabbit's ear, so that tissue will grow to fill the defect between two transparent plates; if the distance between the plates is small, the living tissue can be studied microscopically. (05 Mar 2000) |
| high altitude chamber | A decompression chamber for simulating a high altitude environment, particularly its low barometric pressure. Synonym: high altitude chamber. (05 Mar 2000) |
| pulp chamber | <dentistry> The very inner part of your tooth containing nerve cells and blood vessels. (08 Jan 1998) |
