| cytoplasmic streaming | <cell biology> Bulk flow of the cytoplasm of cells. most conspicuous in large cells such as amoebae and the internodal cells of Chara where the rate of movement may be as high as 100 m/sec. See: cyclosis. (18 Nov 1997) |
|---|---|
| streaming | 1. The act or operation of that which streams; the act of that which sends forth, or which runs in, streams. 2. <chemical> The reduction of stream tin; also, the search for stream tin. Source: Websters Dictionary (01 Mar 1998) |
| streaming movement | The form of movement characteristic of the protoplasm of leukocytes, amoebae, and other unicellular organisms; it involves the massing of the protoplasm at a point where surface pressure is least and its extrusion in the form of a pseudopod; the protoplasm may return to the body of the cell, resulting in the retraction of the pseudopod, or the entire mass may flow into the latter and thereby result in locomotion of the cell. (05 Mar 2000) |
| flare streaming | <cell biology> Phenomenon described in isolated cytoplasm of giant amoeba when the medium contains Ca and ATP. A loop of cytoplasm flows outward and then returns to the main mass the appearance is reminiscent of flares around the eclipsed sun. (18 Nov 1997) |
| action potential | <physiology> The sequential, electrochemical polarization and depolarisation that travels across the membrane of a nerve cell (neuron) in response to stimulation (touch, pain, cold, etc.) (09 Oct 1997) |
| bioelectric potential | Electrical potential's occurring in living organisms. (05 Mar 2000) |
| biological hazard potential | <radiobiology> Measure of the hazard posed by a given quantity of radioactive material in which the variation in biological effects of the various elements are accounted for. See: integrated biological hazard potential. (21 Mar 1998) |
| biotic potential | <biology, ecology> The potential growth a population of living things can expect if it were living under ideal environmental circumstances. (19 Jan 1998) |
| body surface potential mapping | Recording of regional electrophysiological information by analysis of surface potentials to give a complete picture of the effects of the currents from the heart on the body surface. It has been applied to the diagnosis of old inferior myocardial infarction, localization of the bypass pathway in wolff-parkinson-white syndrome, recognition of ventricular hypertrophy, estimation of the size of a myocardial infarct, and the effects of different interventions designed to reduce infarct size. The limiting factor at present is the complexity of the recording and analysis, which requires 100 or more electrodes, sophisticated instrumentation, and dedicated personnel. (12 Dec 1998) |
| brain potential | <physiology> The electrical charge of the brain as compared to a point on the body; the potential may be steady (DC potential) or may fluctuate at specific frequencies when recorded against time, giving rise to the electroencephalogram. (05 Mar 2000) |
| pacemaker potential | The voltage inscribed by impulses from an artificial electronic pacemaker. (05 Mar 2000) |
| generator potential | Local depolarisation of the membrane potential at the end of a sensory neurone in graded response to the strength of a stimulus applied to the associated receptor organ, e.g., a pacinian corpuscle; if the generator potential becomes large enough (because the stimulus is at least of threshold strength), it causes excitation at the nearest node of Ranvier and a propagated action potential. (05 Mar 2000) |
| receptor potential | The transmembrane potential difference of a sensory cell. Such cells are not generally excitable, but their response to stimulation is a gradual change in their resting potential. (18 Nov 1997) |
| redox potential | <chemistry> The reducing/oxidizing power of a system measured by the potential at a hydrogen electrode. (18 Nov 1997) |
| reduction potential | The inherent tendency of a compound to act as an electron donor or an electron acceptor. Measured in volts. (09 Oct 1997) |
