| isometric | 1. Of equal dimensions. 2. In physiology, denoting the condition when the ends of a contracting muscle are held fixed so that contraction produces increased tension at a constant overall length. Compare: auxotonic, isotonic, isovolumic. Origin: iso-+ G. Metron, measure (05 Mar 2000) |
|---|---|
| isometric chart | A chart or graph that displays three dimensions on a plane surface. (05 Mar 2000) |
| isometric contraction | Muscular contractions characterised by increase in tension without change in length. (12 Dec 1998) |
| isometric contraction period | The time between closure of the atrioventricular valves and opening of the semilunar valves. (05 Mar 2000) |
| isometric exercise | Exercise consisting of muscular contractions without movement of the involved parts of the body. (05 Mar 2000) |
| isometric period of cardiac cycle | That period in which the muscle fibres do not shorten although the cardiac muscle is excited and the pressure in the ventricles rises, extending from the closure of the atrioventricular valves to the opening of the semilunar valves (isovolumic constriction) or the reverse (isovolumic relaxation). (05 Mar 2000) |
| isometric relaxation | Decrease in tension of a muscle while the length remains constant due to fixation of the ends. (05 Mar 2000) |
| isometric relaxation period | Early ventricular diastole beginning with closure of the aortic and pulmonic valves and preceding opening of the atrioventricular valves. (05 Mar 2000) |
| isometric ruler | A calibrated scale for eliminating distortion in the measurement of plane surfaces. (05 Mar 2000) |
| isometric tension | Tension generated in a muscle without contraction occurring: cross bridges are being re formed with the same site on the thin filament and the tension (in striated muscle) is proportional to the overlap between thick and thin filaments. (18 Nov 1997) |
| isometric traction | Traction in which the length of the limb does not change. (05 Mar 2000) |
| abiotic transformation | <biochemistry> An abiotic transformation is any process in which a chemical in the environment is altered by non-biological mechanisms (such as by exposure to sunlight). (09 Oct 1997) |
| bacterial transformation | <microbiology> A genetics lab procedure where bacteria are induced to accept and incorporate into their genome foreign pieces of cell-less, isolated DNA, often in the form of a plasmid. The DNA to be introduced usually contains a selectable marker so that the bacteria which successfully incorporate the DNA can be selected for. (09 Oct 1997) |
| blast transformation | <haematology> The morphological and biochemical changes in lymphocytes, both B and T, on exposure to antigen or to a mitogen. The cells appear to move from G0 to G1 stage of the cell cycle. They usually enlarge and proceed to S phase and mitosis later. The process probably involves receptor cross linking on the plasma membrane. (18 Nov 1997) |
| genetic transformation | <molecular biology> Genetic change brought about by the introduction of exogenous DNA into a cell. See: transformation, germ line transformation, transfection. (18 Nov 1997) |
