| methyl aldehyde | <chemical> Commonly used fixative and antibacterial agent. As a fixative it is cheap and tends to cause less denaturation of proteins than does glutaraldehyde, particularly if used in a well buffered solution (buffered formalin, formal saline). Old formaldehyde solutions usually contain cross linking contaminants and it is therefore often preferable to used a formaldehyde generating agent such as paraformaldehyde. Formalin fumes, particularly in conjunction with hydrochloric acid vapour, are potently carcinogenic. (20 Jun 2000) |

| pyruvic aldehyde | CH3-CO-CHO; Pyruvaldehyde;the aldehyde of pyruvic acid; an intermediate of carbohydrate metabolism in certain organisms. Synonym: pyruvic aldehyde. Methylglyoxal bis(guanylhydrazone), 1,1'-[(methylethanediylidene)dinitrilo]diguanidine;an antineoplastic agent. (05 Mar 2000) |
| sugar aldehyde | A sugar that contains an internal acetal. (05 Mar 2000) |
| ketone-aldehyde mutase | <enzyme> An enzyme that catalyses the interconversion of methylglyoxal and lactate, with glutathione serving as a coenzyme. Chemical name: S-Lactoyl-glutathione methylglyoxal-lyase (isomerizing) Registry number: EC 4.4.1.5 (12 Dec 1998) |
