Objective: The aim was to analyze the morphological, structural and lexico-semantic presentation of the Latin terms denoting the infectious and parasitic diseases, part of which is a zoonymic component.

Patients And Methods: Materials and methods: The presentation sample was made by the method of continuous sampling based on textbooks, manuals, including the three-volume edition "Infectious and parasitic diseases", and a number of modern dictionaries. Structural, semantic and descriptive methods were used to address the aim of the research.

Results: Results: Monolexemic composites with a zoomorphic component are formed in a suffixal way. In multi-word phrases, syntactic constructions of mixed type, are usually used and they are characterized by the combination of words of Greek and Latin origin, but these formations are few. The eponymous and toponymic formations to denote specific nosological forms in helminthology are not typical. The data on the first contribution of a researcher to the description of the disease in the name of the term is not displayed, preference is still given to the name of the pathogen, rather than the name of the researcher. The prefix-suffix-based method of formation of terms denoting infectious and parasitic diseases with a zoonymic component is observed sporadically.

Conclusion: Conclusions: The comparison of the above-analyzed terms with the corresponding terminological units of the English medical terminology indicates the predominant use of Latin terminological units. In contrast to many clinical terms with a zoomorphic component, where certain associative moments are taken into account.

Structural and Conformational Chemistry from Electrochemical Molecular Machines. Replicating Biological Functions. A Review.

Chem Rec

July 2018

Laboratory of Electrochemistry, Intelligent Materials and Devices, Universidad Politécnica de Cartagena, Campus Alfonso XIII, 30203, Cartagena, Spain.

Each constitutive chain of a conducting polymer electrode acts as a reversible multi-step electrochemical molecular motor: reversible reactions drive reversible conformational movements of the chain. The reaction-driven cooperative actuation of those molecular machines generates, or destroys, inside the film the free volume required to lodge/expel balancing counterions and solvent: reactions drive reversible film volume variations, which basic structural components are here identified and quantified from electrochemical responses. The content of the reactive dense gel (chemical molecular machines, ions and water) mimics that of the intracellular matrix in living functional cells.

Terminological collocations in medical latin and english: a comparative study.

Wiad Lek

July 2017

Department Of Foreign Languages With Latin Language And Medical Terminology, Ukrainian Medical Stomatological Academy, Poltava, Ukraine.

Introduction: The present paper examines the linguistic status of terminological collocations in medical Latin and English, discusses the most productive term-formation models and ways of Latin-English translation.

Aim: The authors aim to provide the comparative analysis of Latin and English terminological collocations and suggest their classification in terms of the idiomaticity level and semantic valency.

Materials And Methods: The research is based on the corpus of terminological collocations in Latin and English medical discourse using structural, etymological, typological, comparative methods, as well as the method of semantic analysis and conceptual metaphor theory.
