in vitro ,in vivo ,in situ ,ab initio ,in silico ,post mortem ,ex situ ,posthumous ,in vacuo ,(in) operando ,post facto , andex post facto , as used in the scientific literature, are considered. Uses of the Latin origin termsin situ ,extra situm ,in operando ,in vivo ,in vacuo ,in vitro ,extra vivum ,post facto andex post facto ,ab initiis ,computatro , andpost mortem are discussed. It is suggested that these terms are to be used without hyphenation and that all Latin derived terms are set in italic font. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]- Published
