Debridement
Debridement is the removal of dead tissue, slough, biofilm, and foreign material from a wound so healing can proceed, using surgical, enzymatic, autolytic, or larval methods.
Decalcification (histology)
Decalcification is a laboratory procedure that removes calcium salts from bone and calcified tissue, using acids or EDTA, so specimens can be cut into thin sections for microscopic diagnosis.
Decalcification Technique
Decalcification technique: histological removal of calcium minerals from bone and teeth (MeSH D003648) using acids such as nitric or formic acid or the chelator EDTA, balancing speed against tissue, antigen, and nucleic acid preservation.
Decamethonium
Decamethonium (Syncurine, C10) is a synthetic bisquaternary depolarizing neuromuscular blocking drug synthesized in 1948 by Barlow & Ing and independently by Zaimis; prototype depolarizer, discontinued for irreversibility.
Decapod iridescent virus 1
Decapod iridescent virus 1 (DIV1), renamed Decapodiridovirus litopenaeus1 by ICTV in 2023, is an iridovirus of shrimp, prawns, and crayfish causing 80–100% mortality; a WOAH-listed disease first identified in China in 2014.
Decapping complex
Decapping complex: the Dcp1-Dcp2 holoenzyme (with Lsm1-7, Pat1, Edc1-3, EDC4) that removes the mRNA 5' cap, committing transcripts to 5'-3' decay by Xrn1; distinct from scavenger DCPS and DXO enzymes.
Decaprenyl diphosphate synthase-like
Decaprenyl diphosphate synthase-like enzymes (MtDPPS/Rv2361c, DdsA) are cis-prenyltransferases making C50 decaprenyl diphosphate from EZ-FPP for mycobacterial cell wall carrier lipid and bacterial CoQ10 biosynthesis.
Decellularization
Decellularization is a tissue engineering method that removes cells and their genetic material from tissue or intact organs, leaving the extracellular matrix as a scaffold that can be reseeded with cells.
Decellularized extracellular matrix
Decellularized extracellular matrix (dECM) is the network of structural and bioactive proteins left after cells are removed from tissue, used as a scaffold in tissue engineering.
Decellularized whole-organ scaffolds
Decellularized whole-organ scaffolds are extracellular matrix frameworks produced by stripping all cells from a donor organ, typically by perfusion, preserving its architecture so it can be reseeded to engineer replacement organs.
Decentralized clinical trial
A decentralized clinical trial is a clinical study in which activities like visits, consent, and data collection happen remotely or locally rather than at a traditional trial site.
