|---|---|
| thiamin hydrochloride unit | The antineuritic activity of 0.003 mg of the standard crystalline vitamin B1 hydrochloride. Synonym: vitamin B1 hydrochloride unit. (05 Mar 2000) |
| electromagnetic unit | The unit in an absolute system (CGS) of unit's utilizing the magnetic effects of current; e.g., abampere, abfarad, abhenry, abohm, abvolt. (05 Mar 2000) |
| Todd unit | The unit in which the results of testing for antistreptolysin O (ASO) are expressed. It denotes the reciprocal of the highest dilution of test serum at which there continues to be neutralization of a standard preparation of the streptococcal enzyme streptolysin O. (05 Mar 2000) |
| electrostatic unit | The unit in an absolute system (CGS) of unit's utilizing static electricity; e.g., statampere, statcoulomb, statfarad, stathenry, statvolt. (05 Mar 2000) |
| toxic unit | A unit formerly synonymous with minimal lethal dose but which, because of the instability of toxins, is now measured in terms of the quantity of standard antitoxin with which the toxin combines. See: L doses, minimal lethal dose. Synonym: toxin unit. (05 Mar 2000) |
| transcription unit | <molecular biology> A region of DNA that is transcribed to produce a single primary RNA transcript, i.e. A newly synthesised RNA molecule that has not been processed. Transcription units can be mapped by kinetic studies of RNA synthesis and in some instances directly visualised by electron microscopy. (17 Mar 1998) |
