| bimolecular step | <chemistry> Two species are reacting and form the transition state (09 Jan 1998) |
|---|---|
| rate-limiting step | <biochemistry> The slowest step in a metabolic pathway, or the step in an enzymatic reaction that requires the greatest amount of energy to initiate. (17 Dec 1997) |
| Master's two-step exercise test | An early and long-used exercise challenge to identify ischemic heart disease using a pair of nine inch steps with a platform on top, the number of trips by the patient arbitrarily chosen and related to age and body weight. See: two-step exercise test. Synonym: Master's two-step exercise test. (05 Mar 2000) |
| Gomori's one-step trichrome stain | <technique> A connective tissue stain that uses haematoxylin and a dye mixture containing chromotrope 2R and light green or aniline blue; muscle fibres appear red, collagen is green (or blue if aniline blue is used), and nuclei are blue to black.

| step | 1. In dentistry, a dove-tailed or similarly shaped projection of a cavity prepared in a tooth into a surface perpendicular to the main part of the cavity for the purpose of preventing displacement of the restoration (filling) by the force of mastication. 2. A change in direction resembling a stair-step in a line, a surface, or the construction of a solid body. 3. To move the foot in walking; to advance or recede by raising and moving one of the feet to another resting place, or by moving both feet in succession. 4. A prefix used before father, mother, brother, sister, son, daughter, child, etc, to indicate that the person thus spoken of is not a blood relative, but is a relative by the marriage of a parent; as, a stepmother to X is the wife of the father of X, married by him after the death of the mother of X.

| one-step procedure | A procedure in which a surgical biopsy is performed under general anesthesia and if cancer is found, a mastectomy or lumpectomy is done immediately as part of the same operation. (09 Oct 1997) |
| elementary step | <chemistry> Reaction mechanisms are broken down into elementary steps. For each step the the reactants are directly involved in forming the transition state. Therefore a rate law can be written from an elementary step but not from an overall reaction. (09 Jan 1998) |

It is one of the six elementary machines called the mechanical powers. 2. <geometry> A solid of five sides, having a rectangular base, two rectangular or trapezoidal sides meeting in an edge, and two triangular ends. 3. A mass of metal, especially when of a wedgelike form. "Wedges of gold." 4. Anything in the form of a wedge, as a body of troops drawn up in such a form.
