Label	Id	Description
one-colour indicator	CHEBI_50411
mycotoxin	CHEBI_25442
toxin	CHEBI_27026
fungal metabolite	CHEBI_76946
protein phosphorylation	GO_0006468	[The process of introducing a phosphate group on to a protein.]
phosphorylation	GO_0016310	[The process of introducing a phosphate group into a molecule, usually with the formation of a phosphoric ester, a phosphoric anhydride or a phosphoric amide.]
transmittance	BAO_0000071	[The transmittance of a sample is the ratio of the intensity of the light that has passed through the sample to the intensity of the light when it entered the sample (T = Iout / Iin ). To convert between the absorbance and transmittance scales, the following equation is used: A = -log T = - log (I / Io).]
spectrophotometry method	BAO_0000049	[Spectrophotometry involves the use of a spectrophotometer to measure the amount of light that a sample absorbs. The instrument operates by passing a beam of light through a sample and measuring the intensity of light reaching a detector.]
Alport syndrome	DOID_10983	[A monogenic disease that is characterized by glomerulonephritis, endstage kidney disease, and hearing loss.]
monogenic disease	DOID_0050177	[A genetic disease that is the result of one or more abnormal alleles and may be dominant (a single copy of the abnormal allele is sufficient to give rise to the disease), semi-dominant, or recessive (requiring both copies of the gene to have an abnormal allele).]
absorbance	BAO_0000070	[The absorbance of a beam of collimated monochromatic radiation in a homogeneous isotropic medium is proportional to the absorption path length and to the concentration of the absorbing species. Absorbance is a logarithmic measure of the amount of light (at a specific wavelength) that is absorbed when passing through a sample. A= -log10(I/I0), where A is absorbance, I is the intensity of incident light and I0 is the intensity of light transmitted after passing through the sample.]
thyroid Hurthle cell adenoma	DOID_8162
follicular adenoma	DOID_6204
resonant waveguide grating	BAO_0000069	[Cells are directly cultured onto the surface of a resonant waveguide grating (RWG) biosensor. The mass redistribution within the bottom portion of cells, mediated by stimulus is directly measured with the biosensor. RWG biosensor utilizes an optical beam with an appropriate angular content to illuminate a waveguide film in which a grating structure is embedded. When this beam is reflected by the sensor surface, the resonant angle dominates in the output beam. The mass redistribution within the sensing volume alters the incident angle. Because of its ability for multiparameter measurements, the biosensor has potential to provide high information content for cell sensing. These parameters include the angular shift (one of the most common outputs), the intensity, the peak width at half-maximum (PWHM), and area of the resonant peaks.]
optical based	BAO_0000057	[These biosensors employ evanescent waves (surface plasmon resonance, resonant waveguide grating) or interference of light waves to characterize the cellular processes that are taking place at or near the sensor surface: e.g. to study the affinity of a sample to the biological receptors immobilized on the sensor surface.]
adsorption indicator	CHEBI_50409
optical waveguide grating	BAO_0000068	[The optical grating coupler sensor responds to the change of optical refractive index of the liquid or gas cover medium and to the adsorption or binding of molecules on the surface. The optical grating coupler sensor chip is based on a fine optical grating prepared on a thin waveguide layer carried by a glass substrate. The optical grating couples the light of a He-Ne laser at a given resonance angle into the waveguide layer. This incoupling angle is very sensitive to the presence of adsorbed molecules and to any change of refractive index of the medium covering the surface of the chip. By precise measurement of the incoupling angle, the amount of the adsorbed material can be determined with ultra high sensitivity.]
fiber optic waveguide	BAO_0000067	[It is based on the ability of a transparent substance, such as glass to conduct some of the visible or near-visible light to its interior by means of internal reflection.]
acid-base indicator	CHEBI_50407
bio layer interferometry	BAO_0000066	[Bio-Layer Interferometry is a used for measuring biomolecular interactions. In this technique, the interference pattern of white light reflected from two surfaces: a layer of immobilized protein on the biosensor tip, and an internal reference layer are analyzed. Changes in the number of molecules bound to the biosensor tip cause a shift in the interference pattern, which can be measured in real-time.]
