soğuk öğütülmüş Explanation: Benimkisi bir tahmin sadece, cryo- ve grind (ground) sözcüklerinin anlamlarından yola çıkarak "soğuk öğütülmüş" anlamına gelebileceğini düşünüyorum. Oxford Dictionary of English cryo- combining form involving or producing cold, especially extreme cold: cryostat | cryosurgery. ORIGIN from Greek kruos 'frost'. Oxford English Dictionary cryo- combining form of Gr. jqÊo| frost, icy cold (cf. kryo-); as in cryobi"ology, the biology of materials cooled to temperatures lower than those at which they normally function; low-temperature biology; hence cryobi"ologist, one who studies or is skilled in cryobiology; cryobio"logical a., of or pertaining to cryobiology; cryo"globulin Biochem. (see quots.); cry"ology (see quots.); cryope"dology (see quot.); cryo"philic a., applied to bacteria which flourish at low temperatures; "cryophyte (see quots.); cryopla"nation (see quot.); cryo"plankton, plankton inhabiting snow and ice; cryo"pump, a vacuum-pump which produces a very high vacuum by the use of liquefied gases; hence cryo"pumping vbl. n., the use of the cryopump; "cryosar, a switching device in computers (see quot. 1959); cryo"surgery, surgery using instruments that produce intense cold locally; cryogenic surgery; hence cryo"surgical a.; cryotur"bation [cf. G. kryoturbat adj. (C. H. Edelman et al. 1936, in Verh. van het Geol.-Mijnbouwkundig Genootsch., Nederland, Geol. Ser. XI. 332)], any physical disturbance to the soil produced by the action of frost on water in the soil. 1960 H. T. Meryman in Ann. N.Y. Acad. Sci. LXXXV. ii. 509 The future of cryobiology is exciting, permitting as it does the attainment of indefinitely suspended animation. 1961 Lancet 16 Sept. 657/2 At the cryobiology laboratories+A. Rowe+demonstrated new apparatus for the+low-temperature storage of bone-marrow. 1962 Business Week 16 June 72/1 Cryobiology is the marriage of two separate sciences: cryogenics, or extreme low-temperature physics, and biology. Ibid., Cryobiologists have come up with two ways to preserve cells by freezing. 1964 Internat. Science & Technol. June 58/2 The realm of cryobiology encompasses everything below the optimum temperatures at which life functions.+ The problems of cryobiology stretch all the way from trying to understand what happens to an animal, an insect, or a single cell when it is cooled (or later warmed) to techniques for preserving useful cells like blood or destroying undesirable cells such as those in the brain of a patient suffering from Parkinson's disease. Ibid. 66/2 The trouble is that these high rates of heat transfer occur too lateat temperature differences between specimen and fluid that are too low for cryobiological use. |
