Skeletonizer
Definition:
(n.) Any small moth whose larva eats the parenchyma of leaves, leaving the skeleton; as, the apple-leaf skeletonizer.
Example Sentences:
(1) Since all human cadaveric tissue is fixed whilst on the skeleton, we may assume that shrinkage of the muscles in such specimens is negligible.
(2) This result indicates that the bone marrow is a very useful material for the detection of diazepam in skeletonized remains.
(3) Dysplasia epiphysealis hemimelica - an epiphyseal developmental disturbance of the skeleton - is combined with exostose-like, tumor-simulating cartilaginous hypertrophy of bone tissue, mainly located at the epiphyses of the lower extremities and at the tarsal bones.
(4) Hypertrophic osteoarthropathy (HOA) was first described in 1868 as "hyperostosis of the entire skeleton".
(5) The alveolar stability requires particular properties of both the fibrous skeleton and the alveolar surfactant film.
(6) Heart- lung- and skeleton examinations remain unchanged, and represent 71 to 79% of the total number, but there has been a marked charge in other examinations.
(7) In one horse, the superior aspect of the right ascending ramus of the lower jaw below the coronoid process revealed a gunshot wound; the other skeletons showed no evidence of trauma.

(9) The author describes three systems for (1) the treatment of mandibular fractures; (2) the treatment of midface fractures, for reconstructive surgery of the facial skeleton and the skull, and for orthognathic surgery; and (3) the reconstruction of mandibular defects including condyle replacement.
(10) The abnormalities described might bear some relation to the densification of the skeleton seen in pycnodysostosis.
(11) The participation of neural crest cells in development of the dermal skeleton is discussed by way of the repartition of the odontods within the pectoral fin.
(12) This malformation was demonstrated in alcian-blue- and alizarin-red-stained fetal skeletons by measurements of the distance between the cartilaginous ends of each vertebral arch.
(13) A study was undertaken to assess whether CT measurements of the upper craniofacial skeleton accurately represent the bony region imaged.
(14) The destabilization of the red cell membrane skeleton in the presence of crude iHCR is caused by release of hemin, which lowers the stability of membrane skeleton by weakening the spectrin-protein 4.1-actin interaction.
(15) These data suggest that the main route for the formation of the carbon skeleton of aspartate was by a C(3) plus C(1) condensation, with the C(3) unit derived from the isopropyl carbons of valine and the C(1) unit probably from carbon dioxide.
