|---|---|
| fatty liver syndrome | <syndrome> A noninfectious disease of chickens characterised by enlarged fat-infiltrated livers. (05 Mar 2000) |
| fatty metamorphosis | The appearance of microscopically visible droplets of fat in the cytoplasm of cells. See: fatty degeneration. Synonym: fatty change. (05 Mar 2000) |
| fatty oil | An oil derived from both animals and plants; chemically, a glyceride of a fatty acid which, by substitution of the glycerine by an alkaline base, is converted into a soap; a fatty oil, in contrast to a volatile oil, is permanent, leaving a stain on an absorbent surface, and thus is not capable of distillation; it is obtained by expression or extraction; the consistency varies with the temperature, some being liquid (o.'s proper), others semisolid (fats), and others solid (tallows) at ordinary temperatures; both liquid and semisolid oil's are congealed by cold and the solids are liquified by heat. Synonym: fixed oil. (05 Mar 2000) |
| fatty renal capsule | The perirenal fat. Synonym: capsula adiposa renis, adipose capsule. (05 Mar 2000) |
| fatty series | The alkanes; all the acyclic compounds in the methane, ethane, propane, etc., group, distinguished from the aromatic series. (05 Mar 2000) |
| fatty stool | A stool containing excessive amounts of fat. (05 Mar 2000) |
| fatty streak | <pathology> Superficial fatty patch in the artery wall caused by the accumulation of cholesterol and cholesterol oleate in distended foam cells. (18 Nov 1997) |
| fatty tissue | <anatomy> Connective tissue that has been specialised to store fat. See: adipocyte. (25 Jun 1999) |
| unsaturated fatty acid | <biochemistry> Fatty acid with one or more double bonds. (18 Nov 1997) |
