| oxyphenisatin acetate | <chemical> 3,3-bis(p-hydroxyphenyl)-2-indolinone acetate. A laxative that undergoes enterohepatic circulation. It may cause jaundice. Pharmacological action: cathartic. Chemical name: 2H-Indol-2-one, 3,3-bis(4-(acetyloxy)phenyl)-1,3-dihydro- (12 Dec 1998) |
| tetradecanoylphorbol acetate | <chemical> A phorbol ester found in croton oil with very effective tumour promoting activity. It stimulates the synthesis of both DNA and RNA. Pharmacological action: carcinogens. Chemical name: Tetradecanoic acid, 9a-(acetyloxy)-1a,1b,4,4a,5,7a,7b,8,9,9a-decahydro-4a,7b-dihydroxy-3-(hydroxymethyl)-1,1,6,8-tetramethyl-5-oxo-1H-cyclopropa(3,4)benz(1,2-e)azulen-9-yl ester, (1aR-(1aalpha,1bbeta,4abeta,7aalpha,7balpha,8alpha,9beta,9aalpha))- (12 Dec 1998) |
| theophylline sodium acetate | A mixture of theophylline sodium and sodium acetate, with 60% of theophylline; has the same uses as theophylline. (05 Mar 2000) |
| electrophoresis, cellulose acetate | Electrophoresis in which cellulose acetate is the diffusion medium. (12 Dec 1998) |
| ethylene diamine tetra acetate | <chemical> A chemical that is used to remove all traces of magnesium and calcium ions from a solution because it binds tightly to them, in order to control unwanted side reactions with these metals during a laboratory process. Acronym: EDTA (11 Nov 1997) |
| Z-7-dodecen-1-yl acetate | <cell biology, chemical> This chemical acts as a mating-signaling pheromone in a wide variety of insects and in elephants, although it is produced in conjunction with other chemicals so that the different species do not respond to each others signals. (11 May 1997) |
| zinc acetate | <chemical> A salt produced by the reaction of zinc oxide with acetic acid. It is used as a pharmaceutic necessity for zinc-eugenol cement and also as an astringent, styptic, and formerly as an emetic. Pharmacological action: astringents, pharmaceutic aid. (12 Dec 1998) |
| uranyl acetate | <chemical> Uranium salt that is very electron dense and that is used as a stain in electron microscopy, usually for staining nucleic acid containing structures in sections. (18 Nov 1997) |
| uranyl acetate stain | <technique> A stain used in electron microscopy; uranyl acetate binds specifically to nucleic acids but selectively tends to be abolished by osmium fixation; proteins are well stained, but cytomembranes are poorly stained. (05 Mar 2000) |
| flecainide acetate | N-(2-Piperidylmethyl)-2,5-bis(2,2,2-trifluoroethoxy)benzamide monoacetate;a member of the membrane-stabilizing group of antiarrhythmics, with local anaesthetic activity, used in the treatment of refractory ventricular arrhythmias. (05 Mar 2000) |
