YES and YAS assay

Yeast estrogen screen (YES) and Yeast androgen screen (YAS) are in vitro screens that have been developed in order to detect estrogenic and androgenic activities, respectively, of natural and synthetic compounds, mixtures and environmental samples. ^[1]

Sex hormones

Alkylphenol

Alkylphenols are a family of organic compounds obtained by the alkylation of phenols.

See YES and YAS assay and Alkylphenol

Androgen

An androgen (from Greek andr-, the stem of the word meaning "man") is any natural or synthetic steroid hormone that regulates the development and maintenance of male characteristics in vertebrates by binding to androgen receptors. YES and YAS assay and androgen are sex hormones.

See YES and YAS assay and Androgen

Bisphenol A

Bisphenol A (BPA) is a chemical compound primarily used in the manufacturing of various plastics.

See YES and YAS assay and Bisphenol A

Combined oral contraceptive pill

The combined oral contraceptive pill (COCP), often referred to as the birth control pill or colloquially as "the pill", is a type of birth control that is designed to be taken orally by women.

See YES and YAS assay and Combined oral contraceptive pill

Estrogen

Estrogen (oestrogen; see spelling differences) is a category of sex hormone responsible for the development and regulation of the female reproductive system and secondary sex characteristics. YES and YAS assay and Estrogen are sex hormones.

See YES and YAS assay and Estrogen

Ethinylestradiol

Ethinylestradiol (EE) is an estrogen medication which is used widely in birth control pills in combination with progestins.

See YES and YAS assay and Ethinylestradiol

In vitro

In vitro (meaning in glass, or in the glass) studies are performed with microorganisms, cells, or biological molecules outside their normal biological context.

See YES and YAS assay and In vitro

In vivo

Studies that are in vivo (Latin for "within the living"; often not italicized in English) are those in which the effects of various biological entities are tested on whole, living organisms or cells, usually animals, including humans, and plants, as opposed to a tissue extract or dead organism.

See YES and YAS assay and In vivo

International Organization for Standardization

The International Organization for Standardization (ISO) is an independent, non-governmental, international standard development organization composed of representatives from the national standards organizations of member countries.

See YES and YAS assay and International Organization for Standardization

Lac operon

The lactose operon (lac operon) is an operon required for the transport and metabolism of lactose in E. coli and many other enteric bacteria.

See YES and YAS assay and Lac operon

Phthalates

Phthalates, or phthalate esters, are esters of phthalic acid.

See YES and YAS assay and Phthalates

Saccharomyces cerevisiae

Saccharomyces cerevisiae (brewer's yeast or baker's yeast) is a species of yeast (single-celled fungal microorganisms).

See YES and YAS assay and Saccharomyces cerevisiae

Saliva testing

Saliva testing or Salivaomics is a diagnostic technique that involves laboratory analysis of saliva to identify markers of endocrine, immunologic, inflammatory, infectious, and other types of conditions. YES and YAS assay and saliva testing are medical tests.

See YES and YAS assay and Saliva testing

Yeast

Yeasts are eukaryotic, single-celled microorganisms classified as members of the fungus kingdom.

See YES and YAS assay and Yeast
