| 영문 | retinoic acid | 한글 | 레티노산 |
|---|---|---|---|
| 설명 | C20H28O2. 비타민 A의 알코올기를 알데히드로 산화한 후 다시 카르복실산으로 산화하여 얻은 산. 발생중의 세포에 작용하여 형태를 만드는데 관여한다. |

| 영문 | ribonucleic acid | 한글 | 리보핵산 |
|---|---|---|---|
| 설명 | Ribonucleotide monomer로 이루어진 핵산으로 염기, 당, 인산으로 구성된다. 염기는 adenine, guanine, cytosine, uracil의 4종류가 있으며, 당은 5탄당이다. RNA는 DNA를 주형으로 하여 상보적으로 결합, 형성되며 단백질을 만들어내는 데에 있어 중요한 역할을 한다. 전령 RNA(mRNA)는 단백질 합성에 있어 가장 기본이 되는 DNA의 서열을 상보적으로 옮겨 받아 전달하는 전령구실을 하는 RNA. 리보솜 RNA(rRNA) 리보솜을 형성하는 4가지 RNA사슬(28S, 18S, 5.8S, 5S로 구성). 전달 RNA(tRNA) 특정 아미노산을 한쪽 끝에 지니고 상보적 서열의 mRNA와 일시적 결합을 이루며 단백질 합성에 직접 기여하는 RNA이다. |

| 영문 | acid | 한글 | 산 |
|---|---|---|---|
| 설명 | 물에 녹았을 때 이온화하여 수소 이온을 만드는 물질. 신맛이 나고 청색 리트머스 종이를 붉게 변화시키며 염기와의 중화 반응에 의하여 물과 염을 만들고 이온화 열에서 수소보다 앞에 있는 금속과 반응하여 염을 만들면서 수소를 발생시킨다. 수소 원자를 이온화하는 힘의 강약에 따라 강산과 약산으로 나뉜다. |

| 영문 | acetic acid | 한글 | 아세트산, 초산 |
|---|---|---|---|
| 설명 | 분자식은 C2H4O2, 분자량 60.05의 저급 지방산이다. CH3COOH의 구조식을 가진 무색액체로 16.7℃에서 녹고 118.0℃에서 끓는다. 식초의 신맛을 내는 것이고, 농축된 것을 빙초산이라 한다. 상온에서는 액체이며 수용액은 약산성이다. 생체내에서는 일반적으로 아세틸 CoA로 존재하며 아세틸기의 공급원이 되는 외에 지방산이나 스테로이드 등의 생성재료로 중요하다. 아세틸 CoA로부터는 케톤체가 합성되며 조직의 에너지원이 된다. |

| 영문 | acetylsalicylic acid | 한글 | 아세틸살리실산 |
|---|---|---|---|
| 설명 | 상품명이 아스피린(asprin)인 약. 대표적인 비스테로이드 항염약이다. 즉 항염증(anti-inflammatory), 진통(analgesis), 해열(anti-pyretic)의 효과가 모두 뛰어나지만 위장장애, 과다호흡, 라이증후군(Reye syndrome) 등의 부작용이 있다. |

| chocolate poisoning | Poisoning, most commonly of dogs, by ingestion of excessive quantities of chocolate (especially unsweetened baker's chocolate); the causative toxin is theobromine which produces thirst, vomiting, diarrhoea, urinary incontinence, chronic muscle spasms, seizures, and coma. (05 Mar 2000) |
|---|---|
| methanol poisoning | Poisoning by ingestion of methanol or wood alcohol. This ingestion leads to a severe metabolic acidosis and can also cause blindness. Liver and kidney damage can result. (27 Sep 1997) |
| clay pigeon poisoning | A highly fatal disease of swine, usually caused by the ingestion of fragments of the clay pigeons used as targets by shooting clubs; some cases have been caused by consumption of other bituminous substances, such as road tar and tar paper. Synonym: clay pigeon poisoning. (05 Mar 2000) |
| pitch poisoning | A highly fatal disease of swine, usually caused by the ingestion of fragments of the clay pigeons used as targets by shooting clubs; some cases have been caused by consumption of other bituminous substances, such as road tar and tar paper. Synonym: clay pigeon poisoning. (05 Mar 2000) |
| wheat pasture poisoning | A highly fatal disease of cows and sheep occurring generally during the first two weeks in the spring after the animals have been out on lush pastures; it is characterised by convulsions, hypomagnesaemia, and usually hypocalcaemia. Synonym: wheat pasture poisoning. (05 Mar 2000) |
| plant poisoning | Poisoning by the ingestion of plants or its leaves, berries, roots or stalks. The manifestations in both humans and animals vary in severity from mild to life threatening. In animals, especially domestic animals, it is usually the result of ingesting moldy or fermented forage. (12 Dec 1998) |
| poisoning | <radiobiology> Buildup of ash and impurities in a fusion plasma tends to reduce the quality of the plasma and reduce the fusion output, this sort of process is sometimes called poisioning the reactor or the plasma. See: ash, impurities. (09 Oct 1997) |
| mushroom poisoning | Poisoning from ingestion of mushrooms, primarily from, but not restricted to, toxic varieties. (12 Dec 1998) |
| crotalaria poisoning | Poisoning of humans and animals with alkaloids of the plants Senecio (ragwort), Crotalaria (rattlebox), and Heliotropum; produces a veno-occlusive disease of the liver similar to Chiari's disease. Synonym: crotalism. (05 Mar 2000) |
