proteinaceous material

The hyaline membranes were proteinaceous material in the damaged alveoli.

Affected birds accumulated a proteinaceous material on their feathers, causing a loss in the natural water repellency.

"Some kind of proteinaceous material.

This mass can be seen microscopically, with the asbestos fiber layered by an iron-containing proteinaceous material (psammoma body).

The ligament is made of a strong, flexible and elastic, fibrous, proteinaceous material which is usually pale brown, dark brown or black in color.

Histopathology shows alveoli filled with eosinophilic, acellular, proteinaceous material that contains cysts and trophozoites but few inflammatory cells.

Older men often have corpora amylacea (amyloid), dense accumulations of calcified proteinaceous material, in the ducts of their prostates.

In histopathological medical usage, a hyaline substance appears glassy and pink after being stained with haematoxylin and eosin - usually it is an acellular, proteinaceous material.

The shell's structure is distinctive: sinuous bands of blue, green, and rose iridescence are delineated by dark brown lines of conchiolin, a proteinaceous material that holds the shell together.

Ingression continues until a so-called midbody structure (composed of electron-dense, proteinaceous material) is formed and the process of abscission then physically cleaves this midbody into two.

For a period, the scientific community debated whether or not amyloid deposits were fatty deposits or carbohydrate deposits until it was finally found that they were, in fact, deposits of proteinaceous material.

Recent studies by ultrasound analysis of the aesthetes have shown that they do not function as an eye, but as an excretory organ secreting periostracum (a proteinaceous material covering and protecting the shell from abrasion).

Fibrinoid necrosis is a form of necrosis, or tissue death, in which there is accumulation of amorphous, basic, proteinaceous material in the tissue matrix with a staining pattern reminiscent of fibrin.
