Kapsulaarsete

Kapsulaarsete is a Latvian term that translates to "capsular" in English. It is primarily used in biological and medical contexts to describe structures that are enclosed within a capsule. This capsule can be a distinct layer of tissue, a membrane, or a more general protective covering. The term is often applied to organs, glands, or specific cellular components.

For instance, in anatomy, organs like the liver and kidneys are described as having a fibrous capsule, a thin layer of connective tissue that surrounds them. Similarly, certain glands, such as the adrenal glands, are also encased in a capsule. In microbiology, bacteria can possess a capsule, which is a gelatinous layer outside their cell wall that can play a role in virulence or protection. The adjective "kapsulaarsete" simply denotes this characteristic of being enclosed by such a structure. Its usage emphasizes the presence and nature of this surrounding boundary.
