Net


Definition:

  • (v. t.) To make into a net; to make n the style of network; as, to net silk.
  • (v. t.) To take in a net; to capture by stratagem or wile.
  • (v. t.) To inclose or cover with a net; as, to net a tree.
  • (v. i.) To form network or netting; to knit.
  • (a.) Without spot; pure; shining.
  • (a.) Free from extraneous substances; pure; unadulterated; neat; as, net wine, etc.
  • (a.) Not including superfluous, incidental, or foreign matter, as boxes, coverings, wraps, etc.; free from charges, deductions, etc; as, net profit; net income; net weight, etc.
  • (v. t.) To produce or gain as clear profit; as, he netted a thousand dollars by the operation.

  • (4) If tracer is introduced into the carotid artery after osmotic treatment, brain uptake is increased by a net factor of 50 (a factor of 70 due to elevation of PA, multiplied by 7 due to infusion by the carotid route) as compared to uptake by normal, untreated brain with infusion into a peripheral vein.
  • (5) Short incubations with heparin (5 min) caused a release of the enzyme into the media, while longer incubations caused a 2-8-fold increase in net lipoprotein lipase secretion which was maximal after 2-16 h depending on cell type, and persisted for 24 h. The effect of heparin was dose-dependent and specific (it was not duplicated by other glycosaminoglycans).
  • (6) Only those derivatives with a free amino group and net positive charge in the side chain were effective.
  • (7) When labelled long-chain fatty acids or glycerol were infused into the lactating goat, there was extensive transfer of radioactivity into milk in spite of the absence of net uptake of substrate by the mammary gland.
