  "term": "Monodisperse medium",
  "field": "Chemistry",
  "definition": "A colloidal system or other particulate material in which the dispersed particles are of uniform size, shape, and mass. This uniformity contrasts with a polydisperse system, where the particles exhibit a distribution of sizes. The term is synonymous with uniform, and such systems are often prepared synthetically for research in materials science and colloid chemistry.",
