Macrophage: a large phagocyte; some are fixed and other circulate in the blood stream.

Hyperlipaemia: presence of excess lipids in the blood.

Amorpha Canescens: shrub of sandy woodlands and stream banks of western United States having hoary pinnate flowers and dull-colored racemose flowers; thought to indicate the presence of lead ore.

Haematuria: the presence of blood in the urine; often a symptom of urinary tract disease.

Pyuria: presence of white blood cells in the urine; symptom of urinary tract infection.
