| biochemical conversion process | The use of living organisms or their products to convert organic material to fuels. (05 Dec 1998) |
| Budde process | A method of milk sterilization; to the fresh milk, hydrogen peroxide is added in the proportion of 15 ml of a 3% solution to 1 liter of milk, and the mixture is heated to 51컊r 52캜 (124캟) for 3 hours, by which time the peroxide is decomposed and the nascent oxygen acts as an efficient germicide; the milk is then rapidly cooled and put into sealed bottles.

| calcaneal process of cuboid bone | The process projecting posteriorly from the plantar surface of the cuboid; it supports the anterior end of the calcaneus. Synonym: processus calcaneus ossis cuboidei. (05 Mar 2000) |
| vaginal process | A crest of bone (edge of the tympanic portion of the temporal bone) running from the front and medial side of the mastoid process to the spine of the sphenoid; it splits to ensheath the base of the styloid process. Synonym: vagina processus styloidei, vaginal process. (05 Mar 2000) |
| vaginal process of peritoneum | A peritoneal diverticulum in the embryonic lower anterior abdominal wall that traverses the inguinal canal; in the male it forms the tunica vaginalis testis and normally loses its connection with the peritoneal cavity; a persistent processus vaginalis in the female is known as the canal of Nuck.

| vaginal process of sphenoid bone | A thin lamina of bone that extends medially under the body of the sphenoid bone from the medial lamina of the pterygoid process; it articulates with the vomer and the palatine bone. Synonym: processus vaginalis ossis sphenoidalis, sheath process of sphenoid bone. (05 Mar 2000) |
| vaginal process of testis | A peritoneal diverticulum in the embryonic lower anterior abdominal wall that traverses the inguinal canal; in the male it forms the tunica vaginalis testis and normally loses its connection with the peritoneal cavity; a persistent processus vaginalis in the female is known as the canal of Nuck.
