| hydrogen transport | The transfer of hydrogen from one metabolite (hydrogen donor) to another (hydrogen acceptor) through the action of an enzyme system; the donor is thus oxidised and the acceptor reduced. (05 Mar 2000) |

| hydrogen-transporting ATP synthase | <enzyme> A group of enzymes which are involved in the reversible synthesis of ATP and that transport protons from the cytoplasmic to the matrix side of the mitochondrial membrane. The flow of protons through the f(0) channel results in ATP synthesis by f1. Chemical name: ATP phosphohydrolase (H+-transporting) Registry number: EC 3.6.1.34 (12 Dec 1998) |
| sodium-hydrogen antiporter | A plasma membrane exchange glycoprotein transporter that functions in intracellular pH regulation, cell volume regulation, and cellular response to many different hormones and mitogens. (12 Dec 1998) |
| 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) |
| sodium hydrogen sulfite | NaHSO3;acid sodium sulfite, used in gastric and intestinal fermentation, externally in the treatment of parasitic diseases, and as an antioxidant in certain injections (s. Metabisulfite). Synonym: sodium hydrogen sulfite, sodium pyrosulfite. (05 Mar 2000) |
| sulfureted hydrogen | <chemical> Hydrogen sulfide (h2s). A flammable, poisonous gas with a characteristic odour of rotten eggs. It is used in the manufacture of chemicals, in metallurgy, and as an analytical reagent. Chemical name: Hydrogen sulfide (H2S) (12 Dec 1998) |
| interspecies hydrogen transfer | <biology, ecology> The process in which organic matter is degraded anaerobically by the interaction of several groups of microorganisms in which hydrogen production and hydrogen consumption are closely coupled among species. (09 Oct 1997) |
| formate hydrogen lyase | <enzyme> Consists of EC 1.2.1.2, formate dehydrogenase, plus EC 1.12.1.2, hydrogen dehydrogenase Registry number: EC 1.- Synonym: formate dehydrogenase h, fdhh gene product, fdhf gene product, hyc gene product (26 Jun 1999) |
| acetyl chloride | CH3COCl;a colourless liquid used as a reagent; also corrosive, causing severe burns because of hydrolysis to HCl. (05 Mar 2000) |
| acetylcholine chloride | A miotic, administered as an ophthalmic solution for parasympathomimetic effect; used in cataract surgery. (05 Mar 2000) |
| alcuronium chloride | N,N'-Diallylnortoxiferinium dichloride;a skeletal muscle relaxant active as a nondepolarising neuromuscular blocking agent. (05 Mar 2000) |
| aluminum chloride hexahydrate | AlCl3-6H2O;used as an astringent or antiseptic in solution. (05 Mar 2000) |
| ambenonium chloride | <chemical> A quaternary ammonium compound that is an inhibitor of cholinesterase activity with actions similar to those of neostigmine, but of longer duration. Ambenonium is given by mouth in the treatment of myasthenia gravis. Pharmacological action: cholinesterase inhibitor, parasympathomimetic. Chemical name: Benzenemethanaminium, N,N'-((1,2-dioxo-1,2-ethanediyl)bis(imino-2,1-ethanediyl))bis(2-chloro-N,N-diethyl-, dichloride (12 Dec 1998) |
| ammoniated mercuric chloride | Used in ointment for the treatment of skin diseases. Synonym: ammoniated mercuric chloride, white mercuric precipitate. (05 Mar 2000) |
| ammonium chloride | <chemical> Ammonium chloride, (nh4)cl. A systemic acidifying agent that has been used as a diuretic and an expectorant. Chemical name: Ammonium chloride ((NH4)Cl) (12 Dec 1998) |
