Scope note: Parámetros biológicos mensurables y cuantificables (por ejemplo, concentración específica de ENZIMAS, concentración específica de HORMONAS, distribución fenotípica de un gen específico en una POBLACIÓN, presencia de SUSTANCIAS BIOLÓGICAS) que sirven como índices para evaluaciones relacionadas con la salud y la fisiología, como son los riesgos de ENFERMEDADES, los trastornos psiquiátricos, la EXPOSICIÓN A RIESGOS AMBIENTALES y sus efectos, el DIAGNÓSTICO de ENFERMEDADES, los PROCESOS METABÓLICOS, el ABUSO DE SUSTANCIAS, el EMBARAZO, el desarrollo de líneas celulares, los ESTUDIOS EPIDEMIOLÓGICOS, etcétera.
