| radioactive tracer | <physics, radiobiology> A radioisotope is an element which has the same atomic number as another but a different atomic weight, exhibiting the property of spontaneous decomposition. Decomposition gives off radiation (gamma rays) that can be detected with a counter. If a radioisotope is attached to a biological compound and injected into the body, its path may be traced through the body (resulting in an image). (27 Sep 1997) |

| tracer | 1. An element or compound containing atoms that can be distinguished from their normal counterparts by physical means (e.g., radioactivity assay or mass spectrography) and can thus be used to follow (trace) the metabolism of the normal substances. 2. A coloured substance (e.g., a dye) used as a tracer to follow the flow of water. 3. An instrument used in dissecting out nerves and blood vessels. 4. A mechanical device with a marking point attached to one jaw and a graph plate or tracing plate attached to the other jaw; used to record the direction and extent of movements of the mandible. See: tracing. Origin: M.E. Track, fr. O. Fr. Tracier, to make one's way, fr. L. Traho, pp. Tractum, to draw, + -er, agent suffix (05 Mar 2000) |
| tracer/y | Ornamental work with rambled lines. Especially: The decorative head of a Gothic window. Window tracery is of two sorts, plate tracery and bar tracery. Plate tracery, common in Italy, consists of a series of ornamental patterns cut through a flat plate of stone. Bar tracery is a decorative pattern formed by the curves and intersections of the molded bars of the mullions. Window tracery is imitated in many decorative objects, as panels of wood or metal either pierced or in relief. See also Stump tracery under Stump, and Fan tracery under Fan. A similar decoration in some styles of vaulting, the ribs of the vault giving off the minor bars of which the tracery is composed. Source: Websters Dictionary (01 Mar 1998) |
| amphoteric element | An element one or more of whose oxides unite with water to form hydroxides that may act as acids or as bases (e.g., aluminum). (05 Mar 2000) |
| anatomical element | Any anatomical unit, such as a cell. Synonym: morphologic element. (05 Mar 2000) |
| vessel element | Part of a xylem vessel in a higher plant, arising from a single cell. The end walls are perforated and may completely disappear, giving rise to a continuous tube. The remaining walls are thickened and lignified and there is no protoplast. (18 Nov 1997) |
| volume element | See: voxel. (05 Mar 2000) |
| P element | <molecular biology> A class of Drosophila transposon, widely used as a vector for reporter genes, for efficient germ line transformation and for enhancer trap or insertional mutagenesis studies. (18 Nov 1997) |
| mobile genetic element | <molecular biology> Small, mobile DNA sequences that can replicate and insert copies at random sites within chromosomes. They have nearly identical sequences at each end, oppositely oriented (inverted) repeats and code for the enzyme, transposase, that catalyses their insertion. Bacteria have two types of transposon, simple transposons that have only the genes needed for insertion and complex transposons that contain genes in addition to those needed for insertion. Eukaryotes contain two classes of mobile genetic elements, the first are like bacterial transposons in that DNA sequences move directly. The second class (retrotransposons) move by producing RNA that is transcribed, by reverse transcriptase, into DNA which is then inserted at a new site. (13 Nov 1997) |
| picture element | <microscopy> Any segment of a video scan line whose dimension along the line is equal to the line spacing. (05 Aug 1998) |
| morphologic element | Any anatomical unit, such as a cell. Synonym: morphologic element. (05 Mar 2000) |
| control element | Generic term for a region of DNA, such as a promoter or enhancer adjacent to (or within) a gene that allows the regulation of gene expression by the binding of transcription factors. (18 Nov 1997) |
| controlling element | A transposon which, when inserted into or removed from a gene, breaks the chromosome and/or causes mutations. (09 Oct 1997) |
| copia element | A group of transposons whose base sequences are closely related to each other, found in the genome of the fruit fly genus Drosophila. (09 Oct 1997) |
| polarizing element | <microscopy> A general term for a device for producing or analysing plane-polarized light. It may be a Nicol prism, some other form of calcite prism, a reflecting surface, or a polarizing filter. (05 Aug 1998) |
