Biophysics
|
D001703 |
[The study of mechanisms and processes by which mechanical forces elicit molecular response and regulate cell form and function.
, The study of PHYSICAL PHENOMENA and PHYSICAL PROCESSES as applied to living things.

|
Biopolymers
|
D001704 |
[Polymers synthesized by living organisms. They play a role in the formation of macromolecular structures and are synthesized via the covalent linkage of biological molecules, especially AMINO ACIDS; NUCLEOTIDES; and CARBOHYDRATES.

|
Bioprinting
|
D062028 |
[A material transfer technique used for assembling biological material or cells into a prescribed organization to create functional structures such as MICROCHIP ANALYTICAL DEVICES, cell microarrays, or three dimensional anatomical structures.
] |
|
Bioprospecting
|
D065132 |
[The systematic search and discovery of natural substances which may have potential commercial applications.
] |
|
Bioprosthesis
|
D001705 |
[Prosthesis, usually heart valve, composed of biological material and whose durability depends upon the stability of the material after pretreatment, rather than regeneration by host cell ingrowth. Durability is achieved 1, mechanically by the interposition of a cloth, usually polytetrafluoroethylene, between the host and the graft, and 2, chemically by stabilization of the tissue by intermolecular linking, usually with glutaraldehyde, after removal of antigenic components, or the use of reconstituted and restructured biopolymers.

|
Biopsy
|
D001706 |
[Removal and pathologic examination of specimens from the living body.
] |
|
Biopsy, Fine-Needle
|
D044963 |
[Using fine needles (finer than 22-gauge) to remove tissue or fluid specimens from the living body for examination in the pathology laboratory and for disease diagnosis.
] |
|
Biopsy, Large-Core Needle
|
D062005 |
[The use of needles usually larger than 14-gauge to remove tissue samples large enough to retain cellular architecture for pathology examination.
] |
|
Biopsy, Needle
|
D001707 |
[Removal and examination of tissue obtained through a transdermal needle inserted into the specific region, organ, or tissue being analyzed.
] |
|
Biopterin
|
D001708 |
[A natural product that has been considered as a growth factor for some insects.
] |
|
Bioreactors
|
D019149 |
[Tools or devices for generating products using the synthetic or chemical conversion capacity of a biological system. They can be classical fermentors, cell culture perfusion systems, or enzyme bioreactors. For production of proteins or enzymes, recombinant microorganisms such as bacteria, mammalian cells, or insect or plant cells are usually chosen.

|
Bioresonance Therapy
|
D066236 |
[A form of holistic medicine in which ELECTROMAGNETIC WAVES are used to diagnose and treat human and animal illness via manipulation of endogenous electromagnetic oscillations corresponding to the patient's current physiological condition.
] |
|
Biosensing Techniques
|
D015374 |
[Any of a variety of procedures which use biomolecular probes to measure the presence or concentration of biological molecules, biological structures, microorganisms, etc., by translating a biochemical interaction at the probe surface into a quantifiable physical signal.
] |
|
Biosimilar Pharmaceuticals
|
D059451 |
[Biological products that are imitations but not exact replicas of innovator biological products.
] |
|
Biosolids
|
D000080803 |
[Wastewater SLUDGE treated by processes such as COMPOSTING, anaerobic digestion, aerobic digestion, alkaline treatment, and PASTEURIZATION to remove HAZARDOUS CHEMICALS and pathogens.
] |
|
Biostatistics
|
D056808 |
[The application of STATISTICS to biological systems and organisms involving the retrieval or collection, analysis, reduction, and interpretation of qualitative and quantitative data.
] |
|
Biosurveillance
|
D055877 |
[Monitoring of information sources of potential value in detecting an emerging epidemic, whether naturally occurring or the result of bioterrorism.
] |
|
Biosynthetic Pathways
|
D053898 |
[Sets of enzymatic reactions occurring in organisms and that form biochemicals by making new covalent bonds.
] |
|
Biota
|
D058448 |
[A technical term that describes the organization of a biological community with respect to ecological interactions. These interactions include competition, mutualism, predation, and commensalism.
, The spectrum of different living organisms inhabiting a particular region, habitat, or biotope.
, The distribution and abundance of taxa in a biological or ecological community.
