| glacial phosphoric acid | An anhydride of phosphoric acid used as a reagent, and in the manufacture of zinc oxyphosphate cement for dentistry. Synonym: metaphosphoric acid. (05 Mar 2000) |
| phosphoric acid | O==P(OH)3; Orthophosphoric acid;a strong acid of industrial importance; m.p. 42.35캜; dilute solutions have been used as urinary acidifiers and as dressings to remove necrotic debris. In dentistry, it comprises about 60% of the liquid used in zinc phosphate and silicate cements; solutions are used for conditioning enamel surfaces prior to applications of various types of resins.

| cyclic phosphoric acid | In general, a linear polymer of phosphoric acid residues in pyrophosphate linkage in which the a and ω residues are similarly linked to make one endless loop or cyclic compound, specifically, a generic term applied to compounds in which one phosphoric acid residue is esterified to two hydroxyl groups of a single carbon chain, as in adenosine 3',5'-phosphoric acid, adenosine 2',3'-phosphoric acid, etc. (05 Mar 2000) |
| dilute phosphoric acid | A solvent containing 10% H3PO4. (05 Mar 2000) |
| cholesterol esters | Fatty acid esters of cholesterol which constitute about two-thirds of the cholesterol in the plasma. The accumulation of cholesterol esters in the arterial intima is a characteristic feature of atherosclerosis. (12 Dec 1998) |
| phorbol esters | <chemical> Tumour-promoting compounds obtained from croton oil (croton tiglium). Some of these are used in cell biological experiments as activators of protein kinase c. Pharmacological action: carcinogens. (12 Dec 1998) |
| polysaccharide sulfate esters | Sulfate esters of polysaccharides often found in cell walls. (05 Mar 2000) |
| acetic phosphoric anhydride | CH3CO-OPO32-;a "high energy" phosphate that acts as an acetate donor in the metabolism of various bacteria. Synonym: acetic phosphoric anhydride. (05 Mar 2000) |
| phosphoric | 1. (Chem) Of or pertaining to phosphorus; resembling, or containing, from us; specifically, designating those compounds in which phosphorus has a higher valence as contrasted with the phosphorous compounds. 2. Phosphorescent. "A phosphoric sea." Glacial phosphoric acid. <chemistry> Phosphoric acid changed from acid (soluble) salts back to neutral or basic (insoluble) salts. Origin: Cf. F. Phosphorique. Source: Websters Dictionary (01 Mar 1998) |
| phosphoric acids | Inorganic derivatives of phosphoric acid (h3po4). Inorganic salts are known as phosphates and organic esters are phosphoric acid esters. (12 Dec 1998) |
| phosphoric diester hydrolases | <enzyme> A class of enzymes that catalyze the hydrolysis of one of the two ester bonds in a phosphodiester compound. Registry number: EC 3.1.4 (12 Dec 1998) |
| phosphoric monoester hydrolases | <enzyme> A group of hydrolases which catalyze the hydrolysis of monophosphoric esters with the production of one mole of orthophosphate. Registry number: EC 3.1.3 (12 Dec 1998) |
| Rambourg's chromic acid-phosphotungstic acid stain | <technique> A stain for glycoproteins, used with an electron microscope, with which ultrathin tissue sections reveal complex carbohydrates in the same locations as shown by Rambourg's periodic acid-chromic methenamine-silver stain. (05 Mar 2000) |
| a1-acid glycoprotein | <biology> Plasma protein of mammals and birds, 38% carbohydrate. In humans a single chain glycoprotein of 39 kD. Increased levels are associated with inflammation, pregnancy and various diseases. (18 Nov 1997) |
