单词 synovia
释义

synovian.

Brit. /sʌɪˈnəʊvɪə/, /sᵻˈnəʊvɪə/, U.S. /səˈnoʊviə/
Forms: Also 1700s–1800s sin-.
Etymology: < modern Latin sinovia, synovia, also synophia , an invention, probably arbitrarily formed, of Paracelsus (died 1541), applied by him to the nutritive fluid peculiar to the several parts of the body, and also to the gout (see quot. in b below), but limited by later physicians to the fluid of the joints. In modern dictionaries it is derived < Greek σύν syn- prefix + ᾠόν, Latin ōvum egg, on account of the resemblance of synovia to the white of egg. This is without foundation, and conflicts with Paracelsus's description of synovia as reddish, dark red, grey, etc., according to the part.
a. Physiology. The viscid albuminous fluid secreted in the interior of the joints, and in the sheaths of the tendons, and serving to lubricate them; also called joint-oil or joint-water.
