| sodium carbonate | Na2CO3-10H2O;used in the treatment of scaly skin diseases; otherwise rarely used in medicine because of its irritant action. Synonym: sal soda, soda, washing soda. (05 Mar 2000) |

| sodium hydrogen carbonate | <chemical> Carbonic acid monosodium salt (CHNaO3). A white, crystalline powder that is used as an electrolyte replenisher and systemic alkaliser. It is applied topically in solution to wash the nose, mouth, or vagina, and as a cleansing enema. Pharmacologic action: Acid neutralization. Uses: Preexisting metabolic acidosis, hyperkalemia, tricyclic or phenobarbital overdose. Dose in mEq: 0.3 * (base deficit) * (wt in kg). Potential complications: Metabolic alkalosis, hypercarbia, hyperosmolar state. Note: Since HCO3- does not cross cell membranes and CO2 does, the administration of bicarbonate may actually make tissues more acidotic. Chemical name: Carbonic acid monosodium salt. (12 Mar 2000) |
| dihydroxyaluminum sodium carbonate | Aluminum sodium carbonate hydroxide;a gastric antacid. (05 Mar 2000) |
| lead carbonate | A heavy white powder that is insoluble in water; occasionally, it is used to relieve irritation in dermatitis, but it is used largely in the manufacture of paint and in the arts and is thus productive of lead poisoning. Synonym: ceruse, white lead. (05 Mar 2000) |
| lithium carbonate | This compound is used to treat manic depression. (09 Oct 1997) |
| benzoylpas calcium | 4-Benzamidosalicylic acid calcium salt;an antituberculous agent. (05 Mar 2000) |
| calcium | <element> An element taken in through the diet that is essential for a variety of bodily functions, such as neurotransmission, muscle contraction and proper heart function. Imbalances of calcium can lead to many health problems and excess calcium in nerve cells can cause their death. (22 May 1997) |
| calcium-45 | <radiobiology> Most easily available of the radioactive calcium-45 isotopes; beta-emitter with a half-life of 162.7 days; used as a tracer. (05 Mar 2000) |
| calcium-47 | <radiobiology> A radioisotope of calcium with a half-life of 4.54 days, used in the diagnosis of disorders of calcium metabolism. (05 Mar 2000) |
| calcium alginate | A topical haemostatic. (05 Mar 2000) |
| calcium aminosalicylate | The calcium salt of p-aminosalicylic acid, with the same uses. (05 Mar 2000) |
| calcium antagonist | calcium channel-blocking agent |
| calcium ATPase | <enzyme> Usually used of the calcium pumping ATPase present in high concentration as an integral membrane protein of the sarcoplasmic reticulum of muscle. This pump lowers the cytoplasmic calcium level and causes contraction to stop. Normal function of the pump seems to require a local phospholipid environment from which cholesterol is excluded. (18 Nov 1997) |
| calcium benzoylpas | Calcium 4-benzamidosalicylate;an antituberculous agent. (05 Mar 2000) |
| calcium-binding protein | <biochemistry> There are two main groups of calcium binding proteins, those that are similar to calmodulin and are called EF hand proteins and those that bind calcium and phospholipid (e.g. Lipocortin) and that have been grouped under the generic name of annexins. Many other proteins will bind calcium, although the binding site usually has considerable homology with the calcium-binding domains of calmodulin. They can act as transport proteins, regulator proteins or activator proteins. There is also a vitamin D-dependent variant which is a protein that plays a fundamental role in the vitamin d mediated transport of calcium in reptiles, amphibians, birds and mammals. It is found in the intestine, kidneys, egg shell gland, brain, and possibly other organs. Its molecular weight is species dependent. (12 May 2002) |
