| winter dysentery of cattle | A specific, highly contagious and severe disease of unknown origin; the disease is seen in the cold months of the year, outbreaks generally abate after a few days; the death rate is low, but the loss in flesh and milk is often high. (05 Mar 2000) |
| winter eczema | Eczema resulting from accelerated evaporation of moisture (including insensitive sweat) from the cutaneous surface; occurs as dry crackled plaques, usually on the extremities, but not infrequently also on the trunk in any season under circumstances (occupational, environmental) of excessively rapid drying out of the skin. Synonym: eczema craquele. (05 Mar 2000) |
| winter-ground | To coved over in the season of winter, as for protection or shelter; as, to winter-ground the roods of a plant. "The ruddock would . . . Bring thee all this, Yea, and furred moss besides, when flowers are none To winter-ground thy corse." (Shak) Source: Websters Dictionary (01 Mar 1998) |
| winter itch | A recurrent eczema appearing with the advent of cold weather. Synonym: frost itch, lumberman's itch, pruritus hiemalis, winter itch. (05 Mar 2000) |
| winter-proud | Having too rank or forward a growth for winter. "When either corn is winter-proud, or other plants put forth and bud too early." (Holland) Source: Websters Dictionary (01 Mar 1998) |
| winter-run fish | <marine biology> Anadromous fish that return to fresh water in autumn or winter, migrate to spawning areas and then spawn in late winter or spring. (09 Oct 1997) |
| winter's bark | <botany> The aromatic bark of tree (Drimys, or Drymis, Winteri) of the Magnolia family, which is found in Southern Chili. It was first used as a cure for scurvy by its discoverer, Captain John Winter, vice admiral to sir Francis Drake, in 1577. Source: Websters Dictionary (01 Mar 1998) |
| winter sleep | The dormant state in which some animal species pass the winter. It is characterised by narcosis and by sharp reduction in body temperature and metabolic activity and by a depression of vital signs. It is a natural physiological process in many warm-blooded animals. (12 Dec 1998) |
| a-form DNA | <molecular biology> One of several forms that can be assumed by a double helix. A-DNA is stable in dehydrated conditions. This form is less common than the dominant form found under physiological conditions -- beta-DNA. This form is also assumed by DNA-RNA hybrid helices and by regions of double-stranded RNA. It is a right-handed helix and is a more compact form than beta-DNA. (09 Oct 1997) |
| boat form | The less stable of two conformations assumed by 6-membered cyclic sugars (pyranoses) or cyclohexane derivatives, as opposed to chair form. See: Haworth conformational formulas of cyclic sugars. (05 Mar 2000) |
| cavity preparation form | The configuration or shape of a cavity preparation. (05 Mar 2000) |
| replicative form | An intermediate stage in the replication of either DNA or RNA viral genomes that is usually double stranded, the altered, double-stranded form to which single-stranded coliphage DNA is converted after infection of a susceptible bacterium, formation of the complementary ("minus") strand being mediated by enzymes that were present in the bacterium before entrance of the viral ("plus") strand. (05 Mar 2000) |
| resistance form | The shape given to a cavity preparation that enables the dental restoration to withstand masticatory forces. (05 Mar 2000) |
| retention form | The shape of a cavity preparation that prevents displacement of the dental restoration by lateral or tipping forces as well as masticatory forces. (05 Mar 2000) |
