Its crystals may be pinkish to yellowish brown or red-orange. It was first described in 1878 for ...
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Beta-2%20transferrin
Beta-2 transferrin is a carbohydrate-free (desialated) isoform of transferrin, which is almost exclusively found in the cerebrospinal fluid. It is not found in blood, mucus or tears, thus making it a specific marker of cerebrospinal fluid, applied as an assay in cases where cerebrospinal fluid leakage is suspected. Be...
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lefschetz%20hyperplane%20theorem
In mathematics, specifically in algebraic geometry and algebraic topology, the Lefschetz hyperplane theorem is a precise statement of certain relations between the shape of an algebraic variety and the shape of its subvarieties. More precisely, the theorem says that for a variety X embedded in projective space and a hy...

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Instability%20index
The Instability index is a measure of proteins, used to determine whether it will be stable in a test tube. If the index is less than 40, then it is probably stable in the test tube. If it is greater (for example, enaptin) then it is probably not stable. References The instability index is also used to calculate ri...

In computer science, array-access analysis is a compiler analysis approach used to decide the read and write access patterns to elements or portions of arrays. The major data type manipulated in scientific programs is the array. The define/use analysis on a whole array is insufficient for aggressive compiler optimizat...

Quakesat is an Earth observation nanosatellite based on three CubeSats. It was designed to be a proof of concept for space-based detection of extremely low frequency signals, thought by some to be earthquake precursor signals. The science behind the concept is disputed. Mission The students working on the project hop...

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Subderivative
In mathematics, the subderivative, subgradient, and subdifferential generalize the derivative to convex functions which are not necessarily differentiable. Subderivatives arise in convex analysis, the study of convex functions, often in connection to convex optimization. Let be a real-valued convex function defined ...
