Tests
A chemiluminescent microparticle immunoassay (CMIA) used for the qualitative detection of IgM antibodies to SARS-CoV-2 in human serum and plasma on the Abbott ARCHITECT i system. The presence of IgM antibodies may be associated with recent infection or may assist with the evaluation of disease course.
Glossary Term
The quality of nearness to the truth or the true value.
Article
Research record from Pharmaceutics, 2026-03-19. PMID 41900863.
Glossary Term
Acetylation involves the covalent linkage of an acetyl group into an organic molecule.
Indicators
Adiponectin (244 aa, ~26 kDa) is encoded by the human ADIPOQ gene. This protein is involved in the modulation of both glucose metabolism and lipid homeostasis.
Glossary Term
The goodness of fit statistic for the terminal elimination phase, adjusted for the number of time points used in the estimation of Lambda z.
Glossary Term
The adhesion of a gas, liquid or dissolved solid chemical of interest onto a solid surface.
Article
Research record from Cancer, 2026-03-01. PMID 41823571.
Glossary Term
The strength of noncovalent chemical binding between two substances as measured by the dissociation constant of the complex.
Tests
An albumin blood test measures the amount of albumin in your blood. Albumin is a protein made by your liver. Low albumin levels can be a sign of liver or kidney disease or another medical condition. High levels may be a sign of dehydration .
Glossary Term
A volatile liquid prepared by fermentation of certain carbohydrates. Alcohol acts as a central nervous system (CNS) depressant, a diuretic, and a disinfectant. Although the exact mechanism of CNS depression is unknown, alcohol may act by inhibiting the opening of calcium channels, mediated by the binding of the inhibitory neurotransmitter gamma-amino butyric acid (GABA) to GABA-A receptors, or through inhibitory actions at N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA)-type glutamate receptors. Alcohol inhibits the production of antidiuretic hormone, thereby producing diuresis that may lead to dehydration. This agent kills organisms by denaturing their proteins.
Tests
An aldosterone test measures the amount of aldosterone (ALD) in your blood or urine (pee). ALD is a hormone made by your adrenal glands, two small glands that sit above your kidneys. ALD helps keep your blood pressure stable by helping to balance the levels of two electrolytes in your blood, sodium and potassium .
