Multifactorial diseases , also known as complex diseases , are not confined to any specific pattern of single gene inheritance and are likely to be caused when multiple genes come together along with the effects of environmental factors . [ 1 ]
In fact, the terms ' multifactorial' and ' polygenic' are used as synonyms... | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multifactorial_disease |
Multiferroics are defined as materials that exhibit more than one of the primary ferroic properties in the same phase: [ 1 ]
While ferroelectric ferroelastics and ferromagnetics are formally multiferroics, these days the term is usually used to describe the magnetoelectric multiferroics that are simultaneously ferroma... | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multiferroics |
Multifocal multiphoton microscopy is a microscopy technique for generating 3D images, which uses a laser beam, separated by an array of microlenses into a number of beamlets, focused on the sample. [ 1 ] The multiple signals are imaged onto a CCD camera in the same way as in a conventional microscope. The image rate is... | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multifocal_multiphoton_microscopy |
Multifocal plane microscopy ( MUM ), also known as multiplane microscopy or multifocus microscopy , is a form of light microscopy that allows the tracking of the 3D dynamics in live cells at high temporal and spatial resolution by simultaneously imaging different focal planes within the specimen.

Multifuel , sometimes spelled multi-fuel , is any type of engine , boiler , or heater or other fuel-burning device which is designed to burn multiple types of fuels in its operation. One common application of multifuel technology is in military settings, where the normally-used diesel or gas turbine fuel might not be ... | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multifuel |
A multihead weigher is a fast, accurate and reliable weighing machine, used in packing both food and non-food products. [ 1 ]
The multihead weigher was invented and developed by Ishida in the 1970s and launched into the food industry across the world. [ 2 ] [ 3 ] [ 4 ] [ 5 ]
Today this kind of machine, thanks to its ... | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multihead_weigher |
A thin film is a layer of materials ranging from fractions of a nanometer ( monolayer ) to several micrometers in thickness. [ 1 ] The controlled synthesis of materials as thin films (a process referred to as deposition) is a fundamental step in many applications. A familiar example is the household mirror , which typi... | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multilayer_medium |
Multilevel Antimicrobial Polymer or MAP-1 is a coating spray that was developed by researchers at the Hong Kong University of Science and Technology in 2020 and that can inactivate viruses , bacteria and spores on surfaces for up to 90 days. [ 1 ]
The team of researchers was led by Prof. Yeung King Lun, Professor of t... | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multilevel_Antimicrobial_Polymer |
In abstract algebra and multilinear algebra , a multilinear form on a vector space V {\displaystyle V} over a field K {\displaystyle K} is a map
that is separately K {\displaystyle K} - linear in each of its k {\displaystyle k} arguments. [ 1 ] More generally, one can define multilinear forms on a module over a commut... | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multilinear_form |
