1) Process by which the nucleotide sequence is determined for a segment of DNA.
2) DNA sequencing is a laboratory technique used to determine the exact sequence of bases (A, C, G, and T) in a DNA molecule. The DNA base sequence carries the information a cell needs to assemble protein and RNA molecules. DNA sequence information is important to scientists investigating the functions of genes. The technology of DNA sequencing was made faster and less expensive as a part of the Human Genome Project.

1) Process in which molecules are split to give products that have unpaired electrons.
2) The process of oxidizing; the addition of oxygen to a compound accompanied by a loss of electrons.
Industry:Health care

1) Process of the interaction of blood coagulation factors that results in an insoluble fibrin clot.
2) The process of clot formation.
Industry:Health care
1) Process whereby a radionuclide is injected or measured (through tissue) from an external source, and a display is obtained from any one of several rectilinear scanner or gamma camera systems. The image obtained from a moving detector is called a scan, while the image obtained from a stationary camera device is called a scintiphotograph.
2) A test that produces pictures (scans) of internal parts of the body. The person is given an injection or swallows a small amount of radioactive material; a machine called a scanner then measures the radioactivity in certain organs.
