Reagent


Definition:

  • (n.) A substance capable of producing with another a reaction, especially when employed to detect the presence of other bodies; a test.

Example Sentences:

  • (1) At 36 h postsurgery, RBCs were examined by 23Na-NMR by using dysprosium tripolyphosphate as a chemical shift reagent.
