allogenic

التعريفات والمعاني

== English == === Etymology === From allo- +‎ -genic. === Pronunciation === IPA(key): /ˌæləˈd͡ʒɛnɪk/ === Adjective === allogenic (not comparable) Having an external cause, or source; exogenous. (geology) Formed in another location and transported. (medicine, biology, genetics, immunology) Alternative form of allogeneic: genetically distinct, but of the same species; nonself but intraspecies. ==== Usage notes ==== Do not confuse allogenic ("of nonself intraspecies origin") with allergenic ("generating allergy"); the two concepts are often related (because allergic reactions can potentially be caused by any antigen and usually/especially by nonself antigens), but the similar sound of the two words is due only to partial cognation of the word roots. ==== Derived terms ==== ==== Translations ==== === Anagrams === collegian
