Roentgen equivalent man
|
UO_0000140 |
[A dose equivalent unit which when multiplied by hundred is equal to one sievert or 1 Sv. 1 Sv is equal to 100 rem.] |
|
absorbance unit
|
UO_0000269 |
[A dimensionless logarithmic unit assigned to a measure of absorbance of light through a partially absorbing substance, defined as -log10(I/I_0) where I = transmitted light and I_0 = incident light.] |
|
acre
|
UO_0010025 |
[An area unit which is equivalent to 1 furlong x 1 chain. This is equal to an area of 4,046.856,4224 square meters, or 43,500 square feet.] |
|
ampere
|
UO_0000011 |
[An electric current unit which is equal to the constant current which, if maintained in two straight parallel conductors of infinite length, of negligible circular cross-section, and placed 1 m apart in vacuum, would produce between these conductors a force equal to 2 x 10^[-7] newton per meter of length.] |
|
angstrom
|
UO_0000019 |
[A length unit which is equal to 10 [-10] m.] |
|
attomole
|
UO_0000044 |
[A substance unit equal to 10^[-18] mol.] |
|
bar
|
UO_0010069 |
[A pressure unit which is equal to 100,000 pascal or the pressure or stress on a surface caused by a force of 100,000 newtons spread over a surface of 1 m^[2].] |
|
base pair
|
UO_0000244 |
[A count unit which contains one nucleotide.] |
|
becquerel
|
UO_0000132 |
[An activity (of a radionuclide) unit which is equal to the activity of a quantity of radioactive material in which one nucleus decays per second or there is one atom disintegration per second (dps).] |
|
bit
|
UO_0000232 |
[An information unit which refers to a digit in the binary numeral system, which consists of base 2 digits (ie there are only 2 possible values: 0 or 1).] |
|
byte
|
UO_0000233 |
[An information unit which is equal to 8 bits.] |
|
cable
|
UO_0010021 |
[A maritime length unit which is equal to 608 feet, 100 fathoms, or 185.3184 metres] |
|
candela
|
UO_0000014 |
[A luminous intensity unit which equal to the luminous intensity, in a given direction, of a source that emits monochromatic radiation of frequency 540 x 1012 hertz and that has a radiant intensity in that direction of 1/683 watt per steradian.] |
|
candela per square meter
|
UO_0000085 |
[A luminance unit which is equal to a luminous intensity of one candela radiating from a surface whose area is one square meter.] |
|
cells per milliliter
|
UO_0000201 |
[A unit of cell concentration which is equal to one cell in a volume of 1 milliliter.] |
|
centiMorgan
|
UO_0000326 |
[A unit used to express distances on a genetic map. In genetic mapping, distances between markers are determined by measuring the rate of meoitic recombination between them, which increases proportionately with the distance separating them. A cM is defined as the length of an interval in which there is a 1% probability of recombination. On the average, 1 cM is roughly equivalent to 1 megabase (Mb) of DNA, although this can vary widely due to hot and cold spots of recombination.] |
|
centiRay
|
UO_0000327 |
[A unit of genetic map distance defined corresponding to an interval in which there is a 1% probability of X-irradiation induced breakage. To be completely specified, the unit must be qualified by the radiation in dosage in rads (e.g. cR8000), because this determines the actual breakage probability.] |
|
centigray
|
UO_0010055 |
[An absorbed dose unit which is equal to 0.01 gray (Gy)] |
|
centigray per minute
|
UO_0010061 |
[A derived absorbed dose unit which is equal to one centigray absorbed per minute.] |
|
centimeter
|
UO_0000015 |
[A length unit which is equal to one hundredth of a meter or 10^[-2] m.] |
