Vitro†is derived from the Latin referring to glass. Thus in vitro means occurring in laboratory apparatus, such as a test tube. When a medication is effective in vitro it means it has been shown in a laboratory to have an action in an artificial or “glass†environment – a test tube, for example. Usually the first stage of testing a new medication is in vitro research.
In a test-tube or other laboratory environment.
From the Latin meaning "in glass". In vitro tests do not involve the use of living vertebrate animals.
Literally in glass. Refers to experiments on cells and tissues which are performed in a test tube or petri dish.
a biomedical term that associates biological study of cells, tissues or organs outside of the body.
fertilization: The mixing of eggs with sperm in a laboratory dish in order to achieve conception.
In the laboratory (outside the body).
experiments carried out under lab conditions
Latin for "in glass": Processes taking place in test tubes or similar containers.
Occurring outside an organism, in culture, or in an extract.
Direct translation is "in glass". Describes biological reactions that take place in laboratory containers, such as test tubes. Although they attempt to achieve conditions in living organisms, such reactions only simulate real-life situations.
Term used by biochemists to describe a process taking place in an isolated cell-free extract. Also used by cell biologists to refer to cells growing in culture. (Latin for “in glass.”)
Occurring outside the living organism; typically an experiment performed in a test tube or other artificially designed environment. (Compare with in vivo).
Literally, "in glass," i.e., in a test tube or in the laboratory; the opposite of in vivo (in a living organism).
Experiment performed in a test tube/laboratory apparatus
"in glass"; a biological test or process that is carried out in a laboratory
fertilisation or fertilisation of an egg by sperm outside the body (literally, in glass).
(Latin, vitro = glass) In a test tube, used to describe any process that does not occur in its natural environment (in vivo). In development, often associated with In Vitro Fertilization (IVF).
performed in an artificial environment such as a test tube
occurring in laboratory apparatus (glassware): this means an experiment not in a living human or animal
fertilisation (IVF) Fertilisation of an egg (ovum) in a laboratory dish or test tube
Literally, "in glass"; used to refer to processes that are carried out outside the living body, usually in the laboratory, as distinguished from in vivo.
Literally, 'in glass' meaning in the laboratory.
in an artificial environment. General term for cells in culture as opposed to in a multicellular organism.
A biological process made or facilitated to occur in a laboratory vessel or other controlled experimental environment rather than within a living organism or natural setting.
"In glass" as in a test tube; an in vitro test is one done in the laboratory, usually involving isolated tissue, organ, or cell preparations. Contrast with"in vivo."
Literally, “in glass.” Experiment conducted in the lab with test tubes, microtiter plates and so forth.
refers to a cell culture in a laboratory setting.
tests: Techniques that use cells, tissues, or explants grown in a nutritive medium rather than living animals or human subjects.
Reactions that take place outside of the cell; in a test tube.
Outside the living organism. Literally, in glass. [S. L. Brown
a process or reaction occurring in an artificial environment such as a test tube, out side the body.
Outside of the living organism or natural system; usually referring to artificial experimental systems such as cultures, cell-free extracts, etc.
From the Latin meaning "in glass." The term is applied to biological processes studied experimentally in isolation from the organism.
in glass, on artificial media, or in an artificial environment.
Literally "in glass." A biological process taking place in artificial conditions (e.g. in a test tube); in contrast, "in vivo" pertains to processes in a living cell or organism. See "in vitro fertilization."
A term that refers to experiments conducted outside animal models, using primary cells and cell lines, tubes and Petrie dishes. In vitro experiments typically precede in vivo experiments and are often used to characterize genes, proteins, and the activity of small molecules in a more defined system to better anticipate variables in animal models. See also in vivo, in silico.
Research done "in glass", in test-tubes or other mechanical apparatus, often using human or animal tissue
L.: in glass] • In a test tube, rather than in a living organism. (Contrast with in vivo.)
Latin origin meaning "in a glass," i.e. in a test tube as opposed to within the body.
(ihn VEE-tro) Outside the body, such as in a culture bottle.
carried out in a test-tube or similar vessel, literally “in-glass
In an artificial environment. Literally meaning "in glass". Used to describe studies carried out on living cells or tissues grown in the laboratory.
A test done in a laboratory test tube usually involving isolated tissue or cell preparations.
within an artificial environment (literally “in glass”).
In the laboratory, in an artifical environment.
A laboratory environment outside living organisms (e.g., a test tube or culture plate) used to study diseases and biological processes.
Something tested in a laboratory
in sterile culture in glass containers, on, for example, agar medium
Literally meaning is “in glass”. The term indicates an experiment that is done on animal cells in the laboratory rather than on the whole, living organism.
Used to indicate experiments conducted in the laboratory.
In glass, referring to a study in the laboratory usually involving isolated organ, tissue, cell, or biochemical systems.
In glass, away from the living organism
(literally “in glassâ€) the growing of cells, tissues or organisms in plastic vessels under sterile conditions on an artificially prepared medium.
Referring to processes taking place in culture in an artificial apparatus.
Describes a biological process that takes place in a laboratory instead of in a living cell or organism.
Literally means "in glass". Biologic or biochemical process performed in the laboratory rather then in living organism. Back to glossary index
Français] The use of an artificial environment, such as a test tube.
tests undertaken in laboratory apparatus, for example test tubes, not in a living human or animal. Literally, "in the glass".
Storage of plant or animal germplasm in tissue-culture form in glass containers.
In glass; a laboratory experiment performed in a test tube or other vessel.
Denoting a reaction or process taking place in an isolated cell-free extract; sometimes used to distinguish cells growing in culture from those in an organism.
fertilization: A technique in which a woman's egg is fertilized with a man's sperm in a laboratory dish rather than inside the woman's body ( in vitro translated literally means "in glass").
Within a test tube (glass, etc.).
Outside the body, such as a test in a laboratory.
Outside of a living system. Literally means in glass, although in most laboratories today, in vitro reactions take place in plastic vessels. For example, in vitro fertilization is fertilization outside the body or test tube fertilization. Opposite of in vivo.
in an artificial environment e.g. within a Petri dish or test-tube
Latin for "in glass," it refers to experiments done in the lab in a test tube, petri dish, etc.
