What's the difference between phlogisticated and phlogiston?
Phlogisticated
Definition:
(imp. & p. p.) of Phlogisticate
Example Sentences:
(1) Discriminant analysis of eleven currently utilized blood markers of the phlogistic reaction and of the nutritional status has afforded the selection of the two most reliable acute-phase reactants (orosomucoid and C-reactive protein) and visceral proteins (albumin and prealbumin).
(2) Interestingly, intact C5 instilled into lung was extremely phlogistic, apparently due to hydrolysis once within the lung.
(3) Additionally, it was shown that the mutant strain expresses significant increases in the total number of recoverable peritoneal leukocytes in response to other phlogistic stimuli.
(4) In central nervous system inflammation, IL-1-evoked release from astrocytes of arachidonic acid-derived metabolites may influence the severity of phlogistic responses and modulate local immune reactivity.
(5) In order to investigate the phlogistic substance in LPS-induced hyperreactivity, the roles of collagenase and elastase were investigated.
(6) The cause of the damage to the alveolar-capillary membranes is still unknown and we thought that long-term administration of captopril might have contributed to the damage itself, since like all ACE-inhibitors, captopril is able to bring about tissular storage of both bradykinin and prostaglandins and therefore alter the pulmonary reactivity to phlogistic stimuli.
(7) The effect on mouse paw edema induced by various phlogistic agents was first investigated.
(8) Sera from RPGN and mPA patients displaying anti-MPO activity induced granulocytes to enhance the production of oxygen free radicals, thus suggesting a phlogistic effect of MPO-Ab positive sera.
(9) Whether this represents a direct effect of mesangial architectural distortion, a consequence of local phlogistic activities such as the influx of macrophages into the mesangium of glomeruli with PVA localization, or the result of intraglomerular hemodynamic perturbations is unclear.
(10) significantly inhibited carrageenin-induced edema, but did not inhibit edema induced by other phlogistic agents.
(11) The samples obtained by dissolution or destruction of the cell wall produced the most prominent edema and the phlogistic effect was more potent than commerical yeast powder.
(12) The phlogistic response elicited by a single topical application of croton oil (1, 2, 5 and 10%) was increased in a dose-dependent manner, and croton oil, 5%, induced 63.2% increase of ear weight and was the optimal concentration for the experiment.
(13) When the antigen concentration in the complexes is increased 3 to 6 times beyond the point of equivalence, the phlogistic activity of the complexes drops off rapidly, as demonstrated by a sharp decline in the changes in vascular permeability, hemorrhage, and morphologic evidence of inflammation.
(14) As for the pathologic conditions of neck lymph nodes, the clinician needs to know if the involved node is reactive, phlogistic, or neoplastic in nature.
(15) The causes of cholecystic alterations are still questionable; they might be related to blood disorders or to an increased portal pressure, or else they might be considered as phlogistic lesions.
(16) A bacteriological checkup should be performed continually in order to prevent possible phlogistic as well as asymptomatic or minor symptomatic complications.
(17) These observations suggest that further consideration should be given to a phlogistic role for similar spherulites found in some patients.
(18) The importance of including a placebo in the evaluation of anti-phlogistic drugs in clinical trials, emerged from this study.
(19) BPD-I showed a marked inhibitory effect against acute inflammation such as induced rat paw edema and leucocyte emigration and protein exudation by means of CMC pouch method and capillary permeability enhancement induced by various phlogists.
(20) The results make difficult the interpretation of local immune complex deposition as the sole, chronic phlogistic stimulus.
Phlogiston
Definition:
(n.) The hypothetical principle of fire, or inflammability, regarded by Stahl as a chemical element.
Example Sentences:
(1) During the 18th century, the elegant but incorrect phlogiston theory (G.E.
(2) The combined efforts of these analytical minds converted an illogical phlogiston myth into a practical and therapeutic principle.
(3) Between 1775 and about 1800 the Phlogiston theory was replaced by the Oxygen theory.
(4) In refuting the phlogiston theory, he established modern chemistry.
