Aminoglycosides: 

Aminoglycosides are a group of antibiot¬ics that are used to treat certain bacterial infections. This group of antibiotics includes at least eight drugs: amikacin, gentamicin, kanamycin, neomycin, netilmicin, paromomycin, streptomycin, and tobramycin. All of these drugs have the same basic chemical structure.

Amnesia: 

Amnesia refers to the loss of memory. Memory loss may result from two-sided (bilateral) damage to parts of the train vital for memory storage, processing, or recall (the limbic srstem, including the hippocampus in the medial temporal lobe) . Amnesia can be a symptom of several neurodegenerative mseases; however, people whose primary symptom is memory loss (amnesiacs), typically remain lucid and retain their sense of self. They may even be aware that they suffer from a memory disorder. People who experience amnesia have been instru¬mental in helping brain researchers determine how the brain processes memory. Until the early 1970s, researchers viewed memory as a single entity. Memory of new experiences, motor skills, past events, and previous conditioning were grouped : gather in one system that relied on a specific area of the train. If all memory were stored in the same way, it would be reasonable to deduce that damage to the specific brain area would cause complete memory loss. However, studies of amnesiacs counter that theory. Such research demonstrates ahaa the brain has multiple systems for processing, storing, and drawing on memory.

Vnntocentesis: 

Amniocentesis is a procedure used to diagnose fe¬tal defects in the early second trimester of pregnancy. A sample of the amniotic fluid, which surrounds a fetus in the womb, is -xlected through a pregnant woman’s abdomen using a needle and syringe. Tests performed on fetal cells found in the sample :an reveal the presence of i nany types of genetic disorders, thus A :ng doctors and prospective parents to make important decisions about early treatment and intervention.
Amcutation: Amputation is the intentional surgical removal of a limb or body part. It is performed to remove diseased tissue or relieve pain.

Arrytase tests: 

Amylase is a digestive enzyme made primarily by the pancreas and salivary glands. Enzymes are substances m s ie and used by the body to trigger specific chemical reac¬ts : .is. The primary function of the enzyme amylase is to break down starches in food so that they can be used by the body. Astyiase testing is usually done to determine the cause of sudden abdominal pain.
