  2. Kell antigen system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kell_antigen_system

    The Kell group was named after the first patient described with antibodies to K 1, a pregnant woman named Mrs. Kellacher in 1945. [11] Mrs. Cellano was likewise a pregnant woman with the first described antibodies to K 2. The K 0 phenotype was first described in 1957 and the McLeod phenotype was found in Hugh McLeod, a Harvard dental student ...

  3. Hemolytic disease of the newborn (anti-Kell) - Wikipedia

    Cell-free DNA can be used the determine the Rh antigen of the fetus when the mother is Rh negative. Blood is taken from the mother during the pregnancy, and using PCR, can detect the K, C, c, D, and E alleles of fetal DNA. This blood test is non-invasive to the fetus and is an easy way of checking antigen status and risk of HDN.

  4. Blood type - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blood_type

    For example, an individual can be AB, D positive, and at the same time M and N positive , K positive (Kell system), Le a or Le b negative (Lewis system), and so on, being positive or negative for each blood group system antigen. Many of the blood group systems were named after the patients in whom the corresponding antibodies were initially ...

  5. Kaon - Wikipedia

    This gives new eigenvectors, which we can call K 1 which is the difference of the two states of opposite strangeness, and K 2, which is the sum. The two are eigenstates of CP with opposite eigenvalues; K 1 has CP = +1, and K 2 has CP = −1 Since the two-pion final state also has CP = +1, only the K 1 can decay this way.

  6. Hooke's law - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hooke's_law

    Hooke's law states that = or, equivalently, = where k is a positive real number, characteristic of the spring. A spring with spaces between the coils can be compressed, and the same formula holds for compression, with F s and x both negative in that case. [4] Graphical derivation

  7. Potassium - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Potassium

    Potassium is the major cation (positive ion) inside animal cells (150 mmol/L, 4.8 g/L), while sodium is the major cation of extracellular fluid (150 mmol/L, 3.345 g/L). In the kidneys, about 180 liters of plasma is filtered through the glomeruli and into the renal tubules per day. [ 102 ]

  8. Voice onset time - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Voice_onset_time

    (An offset of 15 ms or less on [t] and 30 ms or less on [k] is inaudible, and counts as tenuis.) Aspirated stops followed by a sonorant have a voice onset time greater than this amount, called a positive VOT. The length of the VOT in such cases is a practical measure of aspiration: The longer the VOT, the stronger the aspiration.

  9. Klebsiella aerogenes - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Klebsiella_aerogenes

    Klebsiella aerogenes, [2] previously known as Enterobacter aerogenes, is a Gram-negative, oxidase-negative, catalase-positive, citrate-positive, indole-negative, rod-shaped bacterium. [3] Capable of motility via peritrichous flagella, [ 4 ] it is approximately one to three microns in length.
