  • n. The act or process of reactivating; specifically, in immunology, the process of rendering an immune serum active again after its complement has been destroyed by age or by heating to 55° C. The amboceptor then remains, but is in itself inactive. If now some fresh blood-serum, from a suitable animal, which contains the necessary complement, is added, the activity of the serum is restored; it has been reactivated.
  • Word Usage
    "I was on another blog where they provided scientific data that scent lok suits do not work wet and that the temperature necessary for reactivation is much higher than a household dryer could produce."
