Ramón y Cajal Histol. x. 148 These cilia [of ciliated epithelium] are completely free and carry out spontaneous vibratory and whip-like movements, both of flexion and extension in the greater number of cases (kinocilia); in other cases, as in the epididymis, they appear immobile (stereocilia).

1956 Jrnl. Amer. Chem. Soc. 78 6273/1 The tendency of bromine to adopt the axial orientation in the bromination of an enol would seem to indicate that stereoelectronic control is unusually large in this case since the opposing steric effect is certainly quite large.

1928 Lancet 3 Mar. 442/2 The law governing stereofluoroscopy has not been fully recognised. The law stated simply is that angles of vision which the X rays make with the body should be identical with those made by the vision of the observer of the body... Early in the days of X rays the tubes were of a size which rendered stereofluoroscopy impossible.
