cytology
— Navneord
– Engelsk
~ the branch of biology that studies the structure and function of cells
cytolysin
— Navneord
– Engelsk
~ a substance that partly or completely destroys animal cells
cytolysis
— Navneord
– Engelsk
~ pathological breakdown of cells by the destruction of their outer membrane
cytomegalovirus
— Navneord
– Engelsk
~ any of a group of herpes viruses that enlarge epithelial cells and can cause birth defects; can affect humans with impaired immunological systems
cytomembrane
— Navneord
– Engelsk
~ a thin membrane (a double layer of lipids) enclosing the cytoplasm of a cell; proteins in the membrane control passage of ions (like sodium or potassium or calcium) in and out of the cell; "all cells have a cell membrane"
cytopenia
— Navneord
– Engelsk
~ a deficiency of some cellular element of the blood
cytophotometer
— Navneord
– Engelsk
~ a photometer that can be used to locate and identify chemical compounds in a cell by measuring the intensity of the light that passes through stained sections of the cytoplasm
cytophotometry
— Navneord
– Engelsk
~ the study of chemical compounds inside a cell by means of a cytophotometer
cytoplasm
— Navneord
– Engelsk
~ the protoplasm of a cell excluding the nucleus; is full of proteins that control cell metabolism
cytoplast
— Navneord
– Engelsk
~ the intact cytoplasmic content of a cell
cytosine
— Navneord
– Engelsk
~ a base found in DNA and RNA and derived from pyrimidine; pairs with guanine
cytoskeleton
— Navneord
– Engelsk
~ a microscopic network of actin filaments and microtubules in the cytoplasm of many living cells that gives the cell shape and coherence
cytosmear
— Navneord
– Engelsk
~ a thin tissue or blood sample spread on a glass slide and stained for cytologic examination and diagnosis under a microscope
cytosol
— Navneord
– Engelsk

cytostome
— Navneord
– Engelsk
~ mouth of a protozoan
cytotoxicity
— Navneord
– Engelsk
~ the degree to which something is toxic to living cells
cytotoxin

– Engelsk
~ any substance that has a toxic effect on cells
czar
— Navneord
– Engelsk
~ a person having great power
czar
— Navneord
– Engelsk
