| alkaline water | A water that contains appreciable amounts of the bicarbonates of calcium, lithium, potassium, or sodium. (05 Mar 2000) |
| alkaline wave | A period of urinary neutrality or even alkalinity after meals due to withdrawal of hydrogen ion for the purpose of secretion of the highly acid gastric juice. Synonym: alkaline wave. (05 Mar 2000) |
| Vibrio alginolyticus alkaline protease | <enzyme> Extracellular enzyme stimulated by histidine and urocanic acid Registry number: EC 3.4.21.- Synonym: vaa protease (26 Jun 1999) |
| Gomori's non-specific alkaline phosphatase stain | <technique> A calcium-cobalt sulfide method using frozen sections or cold acetone-or formalin-fixed paraffin sections, plus sodium beta-glycerophosphate as a substrate at pH 9.0 to 9.5 with Mg++ as activator; calcium ions precipitate the liberated phosphate, cobalt salt replaces the calcium phosphate, and ammonium sulfide converts the product to a black cobalt sulfide. (05 Mar 2000) |
| metals, alkaline earth | Metals that constitute the group IIa in the periodic table. (12 Dec 1998) |
| miniplacental alkaline phosphatase | <enzyme> Engineered human placental alkaline phosphatase; miniplap 208 has the same n- and c-terminal signal peptides as placental alkaline phosphatase Registry number: EC 3.1.3.- Synonym: miniplap, miniplap 208 (26 Jun 1999) |
| Yarrowia lipolytica alkaline extracellular protease | <enzyme> First secreted as precursor Registry number: EC 3.4.21.- Synonym: alkaline extracellular protease, yarrowia lipolytica, yl-ae protease (26 Jun 1999) |
| acute viral conjunctivitis | An epidemic inflammation of the conjunctiva marked by follicles, especially in the lower fornix; may be caused by adenoviruses, herpesvirus, and Newcastle disease virus. (05 Mar 2000) |
| antibodies, viral | Immunoglobulins produced as a response to viral antigens; includes all classes of immunoglobulins elicited by all viral components. (12 Dec 1998) |
| antigens, viral | Substances elaborated by viruses that have antigenic activity. (12 Dec 1998) |
| antigens, viral, tumour | Those proteins recognised by antibodies from serum of animals bearing tumours induced by viruses; these proteins are presumably coded for by the nucleic acids of the same viruses that caused the neoplastic transformation. (12 Dec 1998) |
| avian viral arthritis virus | A virus of the genus Reovirus, family Reoviridae, causing tenosynovitis and arthritis in chickens. (05 Mar 2000) |
| bronchiolitis, viral | An acute inflammatory disease of the upper respiratory tract, caused by paramyxoviruses, occurring primarily in infants and young children; the viruses most commonly implicated are parainfluenza type 3 and respiratory syncytial virus. (12 Dec 1998) |
| gene expression regulation, viral | Any of the processes by which cytoplasmic factors influence the differential control of gene action in viruses. (12 Dec 1998) |
