Medical - Medical (general) / Blood donation
Greek term or phrase: εις Φ
Σε ιατρικό έγγραφο που αφορά μετάγγιση αίματος, εμφανίζεται σε πίνακα (χωρίς να αναγράφεται κάτι στη συγκεκριμένη στήλη πέρα από το "εις Φ" που είναι ο τίτλος της στήλης) όπου οι άλλες στήλες γράφουν "Αριθμοί Μονάδων - ΑΒΟ και Rh - εις λεύκωμ. - Βρωμελαΐνη - Coombs".
Το μόνο που μπορώ να σκεφτώ είναι ο φαινότυπος, χωρίς να ξέρω τι θα μπορούσε να σημαίνει εδώ.
