| edrophonium test | <investigation> A test used to measure the amount of antibodies to acetylcholine receptors on nerve endings. This is a diagnostic test for myasthenia gravis. A normal value is no antibodies in the bloodstream. Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis patients may also demonstrate an abnormal edrophonium test result. (24 Mar 1998) |

| EDS | <technique> A microanalytical technique that is based on the characteristic X-ray peaks that are generated when the high energy beam of the electron microscope interacts with the specimen. Each element yields a characteristic spectral fingerprint that may be used to identify the presence of that element within the sample. The relative intensities of the spectral peaks may be used to determine the relative concentrations of each element in the specimen. The X-ray signal is detected by a solid-state silicon-lithium detector and the construction and efficiency of this detector sets a lower limit on the atomic number that may be detected. Generally elements heavier than carbon (Z=5) are detectable. Acronym: EDS (05 Aug 1998) |
| EDTA | <chemical> A chemical that is used to remove all traces of magnesium and calcium ions from a solution because it binds tightly to them, in order to control unwanted side reactions with these metals during a laboratory process. Acronym: EDTA (11 Nov 1997) |
| EDTA light chain | <protein> Myosin light chains (18 kD) from scallop muscle (two per pair of heavy chains), easily extracted by calcium chelation. Although the EDTA light chains do not bind calcium they confer calcium sensitivity on the myosin heavy chains. (18 Nov 1997) |

| education | The act or process of educating; the result of educating, as determined by the knowledge skill, or discipline of character, acquired; also, the act or process of training by a prescribed or customary course of study or discipline; as, an education for the bar or the pulpit; he has finished his education. "To prepare us for complete living is the function which education has to discharge." (H. Spenser) Synonym: Education, Instruction, Teaching, Training, Breeding. Education, properly a drawing forth, implies not so much the communication of knowledge as the discipline of the intellect, the establishment of the principles, and the regulation of the heart. Instruction is that part of education which furnishes the mind with knowledge. Teaching is the same, being simply more familiar. It is also applied to practice; as, teaching to speak a language; teaching a dog to do tricks. Training is a department of education in which the chief element is exercise or practice for the purpose of imparting facility in any physical or mental operation. Breeding commonly relates to the manners and outward conduct. Origin: L. Educatio; cf. F. Education. Source: Websters Dictionary (01 Mar 1998) |
