| incontinent | 1. Not continent; uncontrolled; not restraining the passions or appetites, particularly the sexual appetite; indulging unlawful lust; unchaste; lewd. 2. <medicine> Unable to restrain natural evacuations. Origin: L. Incontinens: cf. F. Incontinent. See In- not, and Continent. Source: Websters Dictionary (01 Mar 1998) |

| Svedberg of flotation | Characteristic sedimentation behaviour of a lipoprotein fraction of plasma in a centrifugal field in a medium of appropriate density, achieved by adding a salt or D2O to the plasma. Synonym: negative S, Svedberg of flotation. (05 Mar 2000) |
| zinc sulfate flotation centrifugation method | A flotation method in which the faecal specimen is suspended in tap water, strained through wet gauze, centrifuged, resuspended in tap water, washed and recentrifuged several times, and then suspended in 33% solution of zinc sulfate and centrifuged at top speed for 45 to 60 sec; a bacteriologic loop may be used to pick up the surface layer, which contains protozoan cysts and helminth eggs. (05 Mar 2000) |
| flotation | 1. The act, process, or state of floating. 2. The science of floating bodies. Center of flotation. The imaginary surface which all the planes of flotation touch when a vessel rolls or pitches; the envelope of all such planes. Origin: Cf. F. Flottation a floating, flottaison water line, fr. Flotter to float. See Flotilla. Source: Websters Dictionary (01 Mar 1998) |
| flotation constant | Characteristic sedimentation behaviour of a lipoprotein fraction of plasma in a centrifugal field in a medium of appropriate density, achieved by adding a salt or D2O to the plasma. Synonym: negative S, Svedberg of flotation. (05 Mar 2000) |
| flotation method | Any of several procedures for concentrating helminth eggs for more reliable results when eggs are difficult to find in direct examination; the flotation method's depend on flotation of helminth eggs on the surface of a liquid of sufficiently high specific gravity, approximately 1.180; 1 part faeces mixed in about 10 parts saturated saline will float most protozoan cysts and nonpercolated helminth eggs. See: zinc sulfate flotation centrifugation method. (05 Mar 2000) |
| alternate cover test | A test to detect phoria or strabismus; attention is directed to a small fixation object, and one eye is covered for several seconds; then the cover is moved quickly to the other eye; if the eye moves when it is uncovered, a strabismus or phoria is present. (05 Mar 2000) |
| areal cover | <botany, ecology> A measure of dominance that defines the degree to which above ground portions of plants cover the ground surface, it is possible for the total areal cover for all strata combined in a community or for single stratum to exceed 100 percent because: most plant communities consist of two or more vegetative strata. Areal cover is estimated by vegetative layer, and foliage within a single layer may overlap. (09 Oct 1997) |
| vegetative fish cover | <ecology> Vegetation materials, such as algal mats and organic debris, capable of providing protection for fish and other aquatic organisms. (06 Mar 2000) |
| cover | Anything that provides protection from predators or ameliorates adverse conditions of streamflow and/or seasonal changes in metabolic costs. May be instream cover, turbulence, and/or overhead cover, and may be for the purpose of escape, feeding, hiding, or resting. (09 Oct 1997) |
| cover class | A category into which plant species would fit based upon their percent areal cover, the cover classes used (midpoints in parentheses) are T = <1% cover (0), 1 = 1-5% (3.0), 2 = 6-15% (10.5), 7 = 51-75% (63.0), 6 = 76-95% (85.5), 7 = 96-100% (98.0). (09 Oct 1997) |
| cover glass | A thin glass disk or plate covering an object examined under the microscope. Synonym: coverslip. (05 Mar 2000) |
| cover test | A test used for objective demonstration of ocular deviation in strabismus; may be performed by two methods: the cover-uncover test and the alternate cover test. (05 Mar 2000) |
| cover-uncover test | A test to detect strabismus; the patient's attention is directed to a small fixation object, one eye is covered and after a few seconds, uncovered; if the uncovered eye moves to see the picture, strabismus is present. (05 Mar 2000) |
| prism cover test | Measurement of the deviation in strabismus by the alternate cover test combined with neutralization for the deviation using prisms. (05 Mar 2000) |
