GRUPO DE TRABAJO SOBRE TERMINOLOGA Y NOMENCLATURA EN QUMICA CLNICA EN LENGUA ESPAOLA

Consideraciones generales

Las entradas que van acompaadas del smbolo * son abreviaturas o trminos no recomendados internacionalmente y van seguidas de la traduccin al espaol del trmino internacionalmente recomendado correspondiente (1-45).

Los nmeros en negrita y cursiva que preceden a algunos trminos en espaol indican las diversas acepciones en espaol, cuyo uso depende del contexto.

El punto y coma entre los trminos espaoles indica que se pueden utilizar indistintamente; no obstante, el orden en que estn escritos indica la preferencia de uso.

En algunos casos aparece, entre corchetes y en letra cursiva, alguna explicacin que facilita la comprensin del trmino espaol.

Los nombre espaoles de las enzimas de este diccionario se caracterizan por el uso generalizado de un guin en la posicin que en ingls ocupa un espacio en blanco. Estos trminos constituyen una mejora terminolgica respecto a los previamente recomendados por la Sociedad Espaola de Bioqumica Clnica y Patologa Molecular (46).

Alguna de las grafas utilizadas, como "i" en lugar de "y" en algunos casos, pueden resultar extraas en alguno de los pases de habla hispana; su uso se ha decidido por consenso, como todos los criterios adoptados para la realizacin de este diccionario. Preparado para publicacin por
