| morphine sulfate | Morphine used for formulation of tablets as well as solutions for parenteral, epidural, or intrathecal injection to relieve pain. (05 Mar 2000) |
| copper sulfate | <chemical> The pentahydrate sulfate salt of copper. It is a powerful emetic and used orally as an antidote to phosphorus poisoning. Topical application of a 1 per cent solution is used in the treatment of phosphorus burns of the skin. It is also used as a catalyst with iron in the treatment of iron-deficiency anaemia. In 1:1,000,000 concentration it is used to prevent growth of algae in ponds, reservoirs, and swimming pools. Pharmacological action: antidotes, emetics, fungicides, industrial. (12 Dec 1998) |
| copper sulfate method | A method for the determination of specific gravity of blood or plasma in which the blood or plasma is delivered by drops into solutions of copper sulfate graded in specific gravity by increments of 0.004, each of the bottles of solution being within the expected range of the blood or plasma sample; the specific gravity of the copper sulfate solution in which the drop of blood or plasma remains suspended indefinitely indicates the specific gravity of the sample. (05 Mar 2000) |
| polymyxin B sulfate | An antibacterial effective in tularaemia, brucellosis, Pseudomonas infections, and urinary tract infections, but used systemically only for severe infections not responsive to less toxic agents; it is also used locally. Polymyxin B is a mixture of polymyxin B1 and polymyxin B2. (05 Mar 2000) |
| polysaccharide sulfate esters | Sulfate esters of polysaccharides often found in cell walls. (05 Mar 2000) |
| cupric sulfate | CuSo4-5H2O;it is highly poisonous to algae, is a prompt and active emetic, and is used as an irritant, astringent, and fungicide. Synonym: copper sulfate, copper sulphate. (05 Mar 2000) |
| potassium sulfate | K2SO4;an obsolete laxative. (05 Mar 2000) |
| proflavine (hemi)sulfate | The neutral sulfate of 3,6-diaminoacridine; a compound closely allied to acriflavine, having similar antiseptic properties. (05 Mar 2000) |
| heparan sulfate | <chemical> Heparitin, sulfate. A glycosaminoglycan occurring in the liver, aorta, and lung. It has a structure similar to heparin, but there are more n-acetyl groups and fewer o- and n-sulfate groups. It is an accumulation product in several mucopolysaccharidoses. Chemical name: Heparitin, sulfate (12 Dec 1998) |
