Iridology (also known as iridodiagnosis [1] or iridiagnosis [2]) is an alternative medicine technique whose proponents claim that patterns, colors, and other characteristics of the iris can be examined to determine information about a patient's systemic health.
Iridovirus is a genus of viruses in the family Iridoviridae. [1] Arthropods serve as natural hosts. Currently, only two species are placed in this genus. Invertebrate iridescent virus 6 (IIV-6) was recognised as the type species until such a designation was abolished.
The virions are icosahedral with triangulation number (T) = 189–217, 120–350 nm in diameter and made up of three domains: an outer proteinaceous capsid, an intermediate lipid membrane, and a central core containing DNA-protein complexes.
Iridodialyses are usually caused by blunt trauma to the eye, [2] but may also be caused by penetrating eye injuries. [7] An iridodialysis may be an iatrogenic complication of any intraocular surgery [10] [11] [12] and at one time they were created intentionally as part of intracapsular cataract extraction. [13]
The surnames of Irido, Ayai, Higashira (lit. "east head") and Tanesato come from Conan Doyle ("Irido" is almost an anagram of "Doiru", which is the Japanese pronunciation of Doyle), Yukito Ayatsuji (only the word Aya (綾) is taken), Nisio Isin (while Nisio is the surname, it literally means "west tail", the opposite of "east head") and Ellery ...
Iridogoniodysgenesis, dominant type (type 1, IRID1) refers to a spectrum of diseases characterized by malformations of the irido-corneal angle of the anterior chamber of the eye. Iridogoniodysgenesis is the result of abnormal migration or terminal induction of neural crest cells .
Iridovirus armadillidium1, known formerly as Invertebrate iridescent virus 31 (IIV-31) and informally as isopod iridovirus, is a species of invertebrate iridescent virus in the genus Iridovirus. [2]
The iridoid ring scaffold is synthesized, in plants, by the enzyme iridoid synthase. [5] In contrast with other monoterpene cyclases, iridoid synthase uses 8-oxogeranial as a substrate.
