cytology1857

1857 E. R. Peaslee Human Histol. ii. iv. 114 The description of the cells (and their development and function), from which the tissues are originally formed, constitutes the department of histology termed Cytology.

1885 Amer. Naturalist 19 425 The first number of a comprehensive treatise on general cytology..has just been published.

1928 E. B. Wilson Cell (ed. 3) 17 The present work has been written by a student of embryology and cytology, with especial reference to the cell considered as the physical basis of heredity and development.

1952 C. P. Blacker Eugenics: Galton & After x. 234 The second province of science (cytology) on which genetics is founded is concerned with the internal structure of the cell, especially of its nucleus.

1977 Ann. Internal Med. 86 841/2 The foundations of cytology and histology are twofold: (1) the description and interpretation of the elaborate artifacts needed to visualize the discontinuities of living tissues, and (2) the conceptual framework relating structural postulates to growth and function.

2002 R. Porter Blood & Guts iv. 81 Advanced microscopy made possible the revolutionary new science of cells (cytology).

b. The cytological or cytogenetic characteristics of an organism, organ, etc.

2. Medicine. The examination of cells present in samples of body fluids, secretions, exudates, smears, biopsies, etc., as a method of diagnosis; a description of such cells. Frequently with distinguishing word, typically indicating the method of obtaining or source of the cells. Cf. cytodiagnosis n. at cyto- comb. form , exfoliative cytology n. at exfoliative adj. and n. Compounds.
