[The non-SI unit of mass in terms of which the masses of individual atoms and molecules are expressed. Unified atomic mass unit is defined as one one twelfth of the mass of an unbound atom of the carbon-12 nuclide, the predominant isotope of carbon, at rest and in its ground state. It is equal to 1.6606x10(E-27) kg (approximately). ( NCI )] (UMLS (NCI) C0678223) =Quantitative Concept ;;
[A product elaborated and marketed by the private Canadian laboratory. 714-X contains trimethylbicyclonitraminoheptane chloride, a nitrogenated camphor-derivative, and mineral salts in ethanol. It is claimed to cure cancer, multiple sclerosis, fibromyalgia, AIDS and other diseases by improving the body's immune function. Few inconclusive animal studies and no human trials were conducted with the product. There is no scientific evidence that 714-X is effective in treating any type of More…

[A human early embryonic event in which in any given cell one of a female's two X chromosomes becomes inactivated and converted into a Barr body. After inactivation has occurred, all descendants of that cell have the same inactivated X chromosome. Thus, X-inactivation creates cell clones with differing effective gene content. An organism whose cells vary in effective gene content and hence in the expression of a trait, is called a genetic mosaic. ( NCI )] (UMLS (NCI) C0043297) More…
[The analysis of the spectrum of fluorescent X-RAYS, i.e. X-rays emitted after bombarding matter with high energy particles such as PROTONS; ELECTRONS; or higher energy X-rays. The identification and quantitation of ELEMENTS by this technique is based on the fact that the wavelength and intensity of the fluorescent X-rays are characteristic of specific elements and the concentration of the elements in the matter being analyzed.

[identification and measurement of concentration of elements based on the fact that x-rays emitted by an excited element have a wavelength characteristic of that element and an intensity related to its concentration. ( CSP )] (UMLS (CSP) C0597692) =Laboratory Procedure ;; =spectrometry;;
