hydrophobic bonding |
<chemistry> Interaction driven by the exclusion of nonpolar residues from water. It is an important determinant of protein conformation and of lipid structures and is considered to be a consequence of maximising polar interactions rather than a positive interaction between apolar residues. (18 Nov 1997) |
hydrophobic colloid |
A colloidal solution in which the disperse particles are solid and lyophobe or hydrophobe, and are therefore sharply demarcated from the fluid in which they are suspended. Synonym: hydrophobic colloid, lyophobic colloid, suspension colloid. Origin: suspension + G. Eidos, resemblance (05 Mar 2000) |
hydrophobic effect |
<chemistry> The tendency for the nonpolar portions of a group of lipid molecules to clump together with one another and exclude water and other polar molecules. The polar portions of the lipid molecules end up facing out. The hydrophobic effect is primarily responsible for the construction of lipid bilayers. (09 Oct 1997) |
hydrophobic interaction |
<chemistry> The attractive force between molecules due to the close positioning of non-hydrophilic portions of the two molecules. (09 Oct 1997) |
hydrophobic tetanus |
A type of local tetanus that follows wounds to the face and head; after a brief incubation (1-2 days) the facial and ocular muscles become paretic yet undergo repeated tetanic spasms. The throat and tongue muscles may also be affected. Synonym: cerebral tetanus, head tetanus, hydrophobic tetanus, rose cephalic tetanus, Rose's cephalic tetanus. (05 Mar 2000) |
hydrophobicity |
<chemistry> A measure of how insoluble (undissolvable) a given molecule is when in water or other polar liquids. (09 Oct 1997) |
hydrophoby |
See Hydrophobia. Source: Websters Dictionary (01 Mar 1998) |
hydrophora |
<zoology> The Hydroidea. Origin: NL, fr. E. Hydra + Gr. To bear. Source: Websters Dictionary (01 Mar 1998) |
hydrophorograph |
An obsolete term for an instrument for recording the flow or pressure of a fluid; e.g., the flow of urine or the pressure of spinal fluid. Origin: G. Hydrophoros, carrying water, + grapho, to record (05 Mar 2000) |
hydrophthalmia |
Hydrophthalmoshydrophthalmus Synonym: buphthalmia. Origin: hydro-+ G. Ophthalmos, eye (05 Mar 2000) |
hydrophthalmos |
Congenital open-angle glaucoma that results from dysgenesis of the angle structures accompanied by increased intraocular pressure and enlargement of the eye. Treatment is both medical and surgical. (12 Dec 1998) |
Hydrophyidae |
A family of snakes, the true sea snakes, characterised by a vertically compressed tail, giving it a paddle-or oar-like appearance; their fangs, like those of cobras, are small, grooved, and permanently erect. They are common in shallow waters along coastal margins in many regions of the Pacific basin and are important medically in western Malaysia and coastal Vietnam. There are numerous species, all venomous, but few bite humans. (05 Mar 2000) |
hydrophyllium |
Origin: NL, fr. Gr. "ydwr water + a leaf. <zoology> One of the flat, leaflike, protective zooids, covering other zooids of certain Siphonophora. Source: Websters Dictionary (01 Mar 1998) |
hydrophyte |
<botany> A plant which can grow only in very wet soil, or which grows with its leaves partly or completely underwater. (09 Oct 1997) |
