Chronometry of Biological Response

Meaning

Chronometry of Biological Response refers to the precise, time-based measurement and analysis of the dynamic profile of a physiological or biochemical reaction following a specific stimulus, such as a meal, a dose of medication, or a hormonal pulse. This involves quantifying the exact latency, peak amplitude, duration, and phase of the response to accurately assess the efficiency and adaptability of the body’s regulatory systems. Clinical application of this concept allows for the optimization of intervention timing to align with the body’s inherent circadian and ultradian rhythms.
