Microfluidics
|
D044085 |
[The study of fluid channels and chambers of tiny dimensions of tens to hundreds of micrometers and volumes of nanoliters or picoliters. This is of interest in biological MICROCIRCULATION and used in MICROCHEMISTRY and INVESTIGATIVE TECHNIQUES.

|
Microgels
|
D000080386 |
[Three-dimensional biocompatible polymers in micrometer size range. They are typically spherical particles in a size range of 1-350 micrometers when used for drug delivery and 3D cell culture applications.

|
Microglia
|
D017628 |
[The third type of glial cell, along with astrocytes and oligodendrocytes (which together form the macroglia). Microglia vary in appearance depending on developmental stage, functional state, and anatomical location; subtype terms include ramified, perivascular, ameboid, resting, and activated. Microglia clearly are capable of phagocytosis and play an important role in a wide spectrum of neuropathologies. They have also been suggested to act in several other roles including in secretion (e.g., of cytokines and neural growth factors), in immunological processing (e.g., antigen presentation), and in central nervous system development and remodeling.

Microinjections
|
D008845 |
[The injection of very small amounts of fluid, often with the aid of a microscope and microsyringes.

|
Micromanipulation
|
D008846 |
[The performance of dissections, injections, surgery, etc., by the use of micromanipulators (attachments to a microscope) that manipulate tiny instruments.

Micromonospora
|
D008847 |
[A genus of gram-positive bacteria that forms a branched mycelium. It commonly occurs as a saprophytic form in soil and aquatic environments.

Micronesia
|
D008849 |
[The Gilbert Islands were granted self-rule by the UK in 1971 and complete independence in 1979 under the new name of Kiribati.
, The collective name for islands of the Pacific Ocean east of the Philippines, including the Mariana, PALAU, Caroline, Marshall, and Kiribati Islands. (From Webster's New Geographical Dictionary, 1988, p761 & Room, Brewer's Dictionary of Names, 1992, p350)

Micronuclei, Chromosome-Defective
|
D048629 |
[Defective nuclei produced during the TELOPHASE of MITOSIS or MEIOSIS by lagging CHROMOSOMES or chromosome fragments derived from spontaneous or experimentally induced chromosomal structural changes.
] |
|
Micronucleus Tests
|
D015162 |
[Induction and quantitative measurement of chromosomal damage leading to the formation of micronuclei (MICRONUCLEI, CHROMOSOME-DEFECTIVE) in cells which have been exposed to genotoxic agents or IONIZING RADIATION.
] |
|
Micronucleus, Germline
|
D048631 |
[The smaller, reproductive, transcriptionally inert nucleus in the cells of ciliate protozoans, as distinguished from the larger, vegetative, transcriptionally active MACRONUCLEUS. Micronuclei participate in MEIOSIS and autogamy during GENETIC CONJUGATION.
] |
|
Micronutrients
|
D018977 |
[Essential dietary elements or organic compounds that are required in only small quantities for normal physiologic processes to occur.

|
Microorganisms, Genetically-Modified
|
D000074041 |
[Microorganisms whose GENOME has been altered by GENETIC ENGINEERING.
] |
|
Microphthalmia-Associated Transcription Factor
|
D051739 |
[A basic helix-loop-helix leucine zipper transcription factor that regulates the CELL DIFFERENTIATION and development of a variety of cell types including MELANOCYTES; OSTEOCLASTS; and RETINAL PIGMENT EPITHELIUM. Mutations in MITF protein have been associated with OSTEOPETROSIS and WAARDENBURG SYNDROME.

|
Microphthalmos
|
D008850 |
[Congenital or developmental anomaly in which the eyeballs are abnormally small.
] |
|
Microplastics
|
D000080545 |
[Plastic particles, less than 5 millimeters in diameter, that are generated from the degradation of larger pieces or are manufactured to be microstructures or smaller.
] |
|
Micropore Filters
|
D008851 |
[A membrane or barrier with micrometer sized pores used for separation purification processes.

|
Microradiography
|
D008852 |
[Production of a radiographic image of a small or very thin object on fine-grained photographic film under conditions which permit subsequent microscopic examination or enlargement of the radiograph at linear magnifications of up to several hundred and with a resolution approaching the resolving power of the photographic emulsion (about 1000 lines per millimeter).
