| white bile | Designating the relatively clear, almost colourless, clear viscid fluid that occurs in the gallbladder, intestines, or both as a result of obstruction of the bile ducts in various sites; actually the secretion of the mucous membrane, without the usual colour resulting from bile pigments. Synonym: leukobilin. (05 Mar 2000) |
| sphincter muscle of common bile duct | Smooth muscle sphincter of the common bile duct immediately proximal to the hepatopancreatic ampulla; it is this sphincter that controls the flow of bile in the duodenum. Synonym: musculus sphincter ductus choledochi, Boyden's sphincter, choledochal sphincter, sphincter muscle of common bile duct. (05 Mar 2000) |
| sphincter of common bile duct | Smooth muscle sphincter of the common bile duct immediately proximal to the hepatopancreatic ampulla; it is this sphincter that controls the flow of bile in the duodenum. Synonym: musculus sphincter ductus choledochi, Boyden's sphincter, choledochal sphincter, sphincter muscle of common bile duct. (05 Mar 2000) |
| acid-citrate-dextrose | A citrate anticoagulant used for the collection and preservation of whole blood. It has largely been replaced by newer coagulants (CPD, Adsol) that allow for longer shelf life for blood and blood products. Acronym: ACD (05 Mar 2000) |
| ATP citrate lyase | ATP citrate (pro-3S)-lyase |
| ATP citrate (pro-3S)-lyase | <enzyme> An enzyme that, in the presence of ATP and CoA, catalyses the cleavage of citrate to yield acetyl CoA, oxaloacetate, ADP, and orthophosphate. This reaction represents an important step in fatty acid biosynthesis. Chemical name: ATP:citrate oxaloacetate-lyase ((pro-S)-CH2COO(-)--acetyl-CoA) (ATP-dephosphorylating) Registry number: EC 4.1.3.8 Synonym: citrate cleavage enzyme. (12 Dec 1998) |

| calcium citrate | <chemical> A colourless crystalline or white powdery organic, tricarboxylic acid occurring in plants, especially citrus fruits, and used as a flavoring agent, as an antioxidant in foods, and as a sequestrating agent. Pharmacological action: antioxidants. (12 Dec 1998) |
| carbetapentane citrate | 2-(Diethylaminoethoxy)ethyl 1-phenylcyclopentyl-1-carboxylate citrate;it has atropine-like and local anaesthetic actions and effectively suppresses acute cough due to common upper respiratory infections. (05 Mar 2000) |
| gallium-67 citrate | <radiology> Analogue of ferric iron, decay: by electron capture to ground state of Zn-67, energy levels: 92 KeV (40%); 184 KeV (23%); 296 KeV (21%), physiological half life: 3.3 days (78 hr), biological half life: 2-3 weeks, binding sites: serum: transferrin, haptoglobin, albumin, globulins, tissue: lactoferrin, PMN's (viable and nonviable), lymphocytes, macrophages, bacteria and fungi, tumour cell-associated transferrin receptor see: gallium: indications (12 Dec 1998) |
