Primes¶
- Located-In Relation
- The relation is not parthood — the located thing need not be constitutive of the location, as a foreign body within a tissue is located in it but is no part of it
This sourceGives formal first-order definitions for biomedical relations including located_in and part_of, distinguishing location from parthood and time-indexing the relations.

The paper separates location from parthood and shows location without parthood only for containment in immaterial continuants; it says material-in-material location coincides with parthood.
“Thus, many examples of instance-level location relations for continuants are in fact cases of instance-level parthood. For material continuants location and parthood coincide. Containment is location not involving parthood, and arises only where some immaterial continuant is involved.”

Verification¶
Does it exist? Confirmed. This work's DOI resolves to a registered record, which fixes its identity. That is all it fixes.
Does it back the claim? Read against the text for 1 of 1 citation: 1 supported in part. Each verdict is shown under its citation below, with what in the work backs the sentence.
Support is checked per citation rather than per work — the same source can be cited soundly in one article and wrongly in another. Per-citation recording began recently, so a citation with no recorded check is a gap in the record rather than evidence it went unchecked.
