| normal serum | A nonimmune serum, usually with reference to a serum obtained prior to immunization. (05 Mar 2000) |
|---|---|
| dried human serum | Serum prepared by drying liquid human serum by freeze-drying or by any other method that will avoid denaturation of the proteins and will yield a product readily soluble in a quantity of water equal to the volume of liquid human serum from which it was prepared. (05 Mar 2000) |
| immune serum | Blood serum containing antibodies. (14 Nov 1997) |
| immune serum globulin | A sterile solution of globulin's that contains many antibodies normally present in adult human blood; a passive immunizing agent frequently used for prophylaxis against hepatitis A. (05 Mar 2000) |
| immunization, serum hepatitis | See Immunization, hepatitis b. (12 Dec 1998) |
| inactivated serum | <immunology> Serum that has been heated 50캜 for 30 minutes to destroy the lytic activity of complement. (05 Mar 2000) |
| iodinated 125I serum albumin | A sterile, buffered, isotonic solution prepared to contain not less than 10 mg of radioiodinated normal human serum albumin per ml, and adjusted to provide not more than 1 mCi of radioactivity per ml; used as a diagnostic aid in determining blood volume and cardiac output. Synonym: radioiodinated serum albumin. (05 Mar 2000) |
| iodinated 131I human serum albumin | A sterile, buffered, isotonic solution prepared to contain not less than 10 mg of radioiodinated normal human serum albumin per ml, and adjusted to provide not more than 1 mCi of radioactivity per ml; used as a diagnostic aid in the measurement of blood volume and cardiac output. (05 Mar 2000) |
| thyrotoxic serum | An antiserum obtained by injecting into animals the nucleoproteins of the thyroid gland. (05 Mar 2000) |
| equine serum hepatitis | <veterinary> An acute hepatic disease of the horse, often associated with prior administration of biological products; neurologic signs and jaundice are usually prominent signs; aetiology is unknown. Synonym: Theiler's disease. (05 Mar 2000) |
| truth serum | Colloquialism for a drug, such as amobarbital sodium or thiopental sodium, intravenously injected for the purpose of eliciting information from the subject under its influence; a misnomer because the subject's revelations may or may not be factually true, and its legal status and use is questionable. (05 Mar 2000) |
| foetal calf serum | <cell culture> The serum originating from embryonic calves and an expensive component of standard culture media for many types of animal tissue cells.

| liquid human serum | The pool of fluids separated from blood withdrawn from human subjects and allowed to clot in the absence of any anticoagulant; not more than 10 separate donations are pooled; the contributions from donors of A, O, and either B or AB groups are represented in approximately the ratio 9:9:2. (05 Mar 2000) |
| accelerator factor | <chemical> Heat- and storage-labile plasma glycoprotein which accelerates the conversion of prothrombin to thrombin in blood coagulation. Factor v accomplishes this by forming a complex with factor xa, phospholipid, and calcium (prothrombinase complex). Deficiency of factor v leads to owren's disease. Chemical name: Blood-coagulation factor V (12 Dec 1998) |
