CLINICAL MEASUREMENT - ANNOTATIONS

The Clinical Measurement Ontology (CMO), Measurement Methods Ontology (MMO), and Experimental Condition Ontology (XCO) are currently being developed at the Rat Genome Database.

Definition:The amount of malondialdehyde in a specified sample of plasma, the fibrinogen-containing fluid portion of the blood in which the particulate components are suspended. Malondialdehyde is an organic compound with the formula CH2(CHO)2. It is a reactive species which occurs naturally, is generally found in the enol form (HOCH=CH-CHO), and is a marker for oxidative stress. Malondialdehyde is the substrate for the TBARS (thiobarbituric acid reactive substances) assay of lipid peroxidation.
Synonyms:exact_synonym: plasma MDA level;   plasma lipid peroxide level;   plasma thiobarbituric acid-reactive substance level
