Substrate (Adhesives and Sealants)

Materials to be bonded together (e.g. wood to wood, wood to metal, metal to metal, etc.).

Substrate (Biology)

The substance changed or acted on by an enzyme.

Substrate (DVD)

The clear polycarbonate disc onto which data layers are stamped or deposited.

Substrate (DVD and CD)

The clear polycarbonate disc onto which data layers are stamped or deposited.

Substrate (Electric Power)

The physical material upon which a photovoltaic cell is made.

Substrate (Fish)

The composition of a streambed, including either mineral or organic materials.

Substrate (HIV and AIDs)

The compounds acted upon by an ENZYME.

Substrate (Huntingtons Disease)

A molecule that an enzyme binds and acts upon.

Substrate (Immunology Lab)

Any substance on which an enzyme can act. In this example, HRP (the enzyme) will interact with a substrate called ABTS (2,2'-azinobis-3-ethylbenzothiazoleine-6-sulfonic acid) to produce a yellow solution.

Substrate (Magnetic Tapes)

Backing film layer that supports the magnetic layer in a magnetic tape. PET is currently the most commonly used tape substrate.

Substrate (Metal)

The layer of metal underlying a coating, regardless of whether the layer is base metal.

Substrate (Microbiology)

A substance on which an enzyme acts.

Substrate (Paint)

Any surface to which a coating or sealant is applied.

Substrate (Roofing)

A part or substance which lies below and supports another.

Substrate (Sanitation)

(1) The substances used as a food supply by organisms in liquid suspension. (2) The liquor in which activated sludge or other matter is kept in suspension.

Substrate (Scanner)

The base material used to carry or support an image, for example paper or film.

Substrate (Science)

In biochemistry, a substrate is a molecule undergoing a reaction, for which the presence of an enzyme lowers the activation energy. The substrate binds with the enzyme's active site, and the enzyme provides an alternative reaction pathway with a lower activation enthalpy.

Substrate (Solar Energy)

The physical material upon which a photovoltaic cell is applied.

Substrate (Storage Media)

The material underneath the magnetic coating of a disk. Common substrates include aluminum for hard disks, glass for optical disks, and mylar for floppy disks.
