| flat top waves | Activity in the electroencephalogram having a pattern suggesting a flat top; these wave's are often found in temporal lobe discharges. (05 Mar 2000) |
| agar-gel reaction | <immunology> The reaction between an antibody and an antigen during an immunology lab procedure where the two are allowed to diffuse toward each other through an agar-gel medium. Lines of precipitation form in the places on the gel where the two react with each other and shows where the reaction has occurred. (09 Oct 1997) |
| agarose gel electrophoresis | <procedure> A type of electrophoresis that uses a matrix of highly purified agar to separate large nucleotides in size. (06 May 1997) |
| aluminum hydroxide gel | A suspension containing Al2O3, mainly in the form of aluminum hydroxide, used as an antacid; a dried form, with the same use, is obtained by drying the product of interaction in aqueous solution of an aluminum salt with ammonium or sodium carbonate. (05 Mar 2000) |

| gel | Jelly like material formed by the coagulation of a colloidal liquid. Many gels have a fibrous matrix and fluid filled interstices: gels are viscoelastic rather than simply viscous and can resist some mechanical stress without deformation. Examples are the gels formed by large molecules such as collagen (and gelatin), agarose, acrylamide and starch. (18 Nov 1997) |
| gel diffusion | Diffusion in a gel, as in the case of gel diffusion precipitin tests in which the immune reactants diffuse in agar. See: immunodiffusion. (05 Mar 2000) |
| gel diffusion precipitin tests | Precipitin test's in which the immune precipitate forms in a gel medium (usually agar) into which one or both reactants have diffused; generally classified in two types, in one dimension, and in two dimensions. Synonym: gel diffusion reactions. (05 Mar 2000) |
| gel diffusion precipitin tests in one dimension | Precipitin test's in which antigen solution and antibody incorporated in agar are layered in tubes, permitting effective diffusion in the vertical dimension; the antibody-containing agar may be overlaid directly with antigen solution (single (gel) diffusion in one dimension).
