Article
Research record from Cancer Rep (Hoboken), 2026-07-01. PMID 42463449.
Glossary Term
Chemicals that are added to drug products to prolong shelf life and maintain sterility. Protection of formulations, especially aqueous solutions, against microbial growth requires use of either antibacterial or antifungal preservatives. Generally, such agents are active against either bacteria or fungi but a few are active against both. The antimicrobials include but not limited to chlorobutanol, benzyl alcohol, sodium benzoate, sorbic acid, and phenol. The antioxidizing agents include butylated hydroxytoluene, hydroxyanisole, propyl gallate, and sulfites. The necessary addition of preservatives for both safety and economy sometimes has been associated with significant adverse effects in certain patient populations.
Glossary Term
The ratio (for a given time period) of the number of occurrences of a disease or event to the number of units at risk in the population.
Indicators
This gene plays a role in the regulation of protein kinase A.
Glossary Term
General term for a piece of DNA or RNA corresponding to a gene or sequence of interest, that has been labelled either radioactively or with some other detectable molecule, such as biotin, digoxygenin or fluorescein. As stretches of DNA or RNA with complementary sequences will hybridize, a probe will label viral plaques, bacterial colonies or bands on a gel that contain the gene of interest.
Glossary Term
A program for the determination of laboratory performance where individual labs perform the same test on the same or similar items or materials, with the results from each lab compared and evaluated.
Glossary Term
A DNA sequence at which RNA polymerase binds and initiates transcription.
Article
