| vacuum | Origin: L, fr. Vacuus empty. See Vacuous. 1. <physics> A space entirely devoid of matter (called also, by way of distinction, absolute vacuum); hence, in a more general sense, a space, as the interior of a closed vessel, which has been exhausted to a high or the highest degree by an air pump or other artificial means; as, water boils at a reduced temperature in a vacuum. 2. The condition of rarefaction, or reduction of pressure below that of the atmosphere, in a vessel, as the condenser of a steam engine, which is nearly exhausted of air or steam, etc.; as, a vacuum of 26 inches of mercury, or 13 pounds per square inch. Vacuum brake, a kind of continuous brake operated by exhausting the air from some appliance under each car, and so causing the pressure of the atmosphere to apply the brakes. <medicine> Vacuum pan, a glass tube provided with platinum electrodes and exhausted, for the passage of the electrical discharge; a Geissler tube. Vacuum valve, a safety valve opening inward to admit air to a vessel in which the pressure is less than that of the atmosphere, in order to prevent collapse. Torricellian vacuum. See Torricellian.

| vacuum tube | A glass tube from which the air has been removed, containing two or more electrodes, between which passes an electrical current or spark; used in the production of X-rays, or to control circuits. Previously in wide use, the vacuum tube has been supplanted by transistors in electronic circuits. (05 Mar 2000) |
| adoptive transfer | Form of passive immunization where previously sensitised immunologic agents (cells or serum) are transferred to non-immune recipients. When transfer of cells is used as a therapy for the treatment of neoplasms, it is called adoptive immunotherapy (immunotherapy, adoptive). (12 Dec 1998) |
| gamete intra-fallopian transfer | <gynaecology> Gamete intra-fallopian transfer is a technique that involves combining eggs and sperm outside of the body and immediately placing them into the fallopian tubes to achieve fertilization. A technique that came into use in the mid-1980's for assisted conception in infertile women with normal fallopian tubes. The protocol consists of hormonal stimulation of the ovaries, followed by laparoscopic follicular aspiration of oocytes, and then the transfer of sperm and oocytes by catheterization into the fallopian tubes. Acronym: GIFT (12 Dec 1998) |
| gel transfer | Any lab technique used to transfer substances which had been separated using gel electrophoresis from the gel to a membrane for further processing or analysis. For example: any type of blotting. (09 Oct 1997) |
| gene transfer | <molecular biology> General tem for the insertion of foreign genes into a cell or organism. Synonymous with transfection. (18 Nov 1997) |
