| mannitol | A medication given to reduce brain swelling and elevated intracranial pressure. Also used to temporarily disrupt the blood-brain barrier prior to some forms of chemotherapy. (16 Dec 1997) |
|---|---|
| mannitol dehydrogenase | <enzyme> Chemical name: D-Mannitol:NAD+ 2-oxidoreductase Registry number: EC 1.1.1.67 (12 Dec 1998) |
| mannitol hexanitrate | An explosive compound formed by the nitration of mannitol; when diluted with carbohydrate substances (one part of mannitol hexanitrate to nine or more parts of carbohydrate) it is not explosive, and is used as a vasodilator and hypotensive agent; it is slower in action than nitroglycerin. Synonym: nitromannitol. (05 Mar 2000) |
| mannitol - mannose 1-oxidoreductase | <enzyme> Isolated from celeriae root tips; catalyses the nad-dependent oxidation of mannitol to mannose not to fructose; strongly inhibited by NADH and sensitive to alterations of nad-NADH ratio. Do not confuse with mannitol dehydrogenase (EC 1.1.1.67) which is a 2-oxidoreductase which converts mannitol to fructose Registry number: EC 1.1.1.- Synonym: mannitol 1-dehydrogenase (26 Jun 1999) |
| D mannitol | <chemical> Hexitol related to D mannose. Found in plants, particularly fungi and seaweeds. (18 Nov 1997) |
| calcium phosphates | Calcium salts of phosphoric acid. These compounds are frequently used as calcium supplements. (12 Dec 1998) |
| phosphates | Inorganic salts of phosphoric acid. (12 Dec 1998) |
| phosphatidylinositol phosphates | <biochemistry> Phosphatidylinositols in which one or more alcohol group of the inositol has been substituted with a phosphate group. (12 Dec 1998) |
| polyisoprenyl phosphates | Phosphoric or pyrophosphoric acid esters of polyisoprenoids. (12 Dec 1998) |
| high energy phosphates | Those phosphate's that, on hydrolysis, yield an unusually large amount of energy; e.g., nucleotide polyphosphates such as ATP, enol phosphate's such as phosphoenolpyruvate. See: high energy compounds. Synonym: energy-rich phosphates. (05 Mar 2000) |
| dinucleoside phosphates | A group of compounds which consist of a nucleotide molecule to which an additional nucleoside is attached through the phosphate molecule(s). The nucleotide can contain any number of phosphates. (12 Dec 1998) |
| dolichol phosphates | Phosphoric acid esters of dolichol. (12 Dec 1998) |
| inositol phosphates | Phosphoric acid esters of inositol. They include mono- and polyphosphoric acid esters, with the exception of inositol hexaphosphate which is phytic acid. (12 Dec 1998) |
| energy-rich phosphates | Those phosphate's that, on hydrolysis, yield an unusually large amount of energy; e.g., nucleotide polyphosphates such as ATP, enol phosphate's such as phosphoenolpyruvate. See: high energy compounds. Synonym: energy-rich phosphates. (05 Mar 2000) |
| tritolyl phosphates | Phosphoric acid tri(methylphenyl) ester. A mixture of isomeric tritolyl phosphates. Used in the sterilization of certain surgical instruments and in many industrial processes. (12 Dec 1998) |
