Aluminium phosphate dihydrate (variscite and meta-variscite) has a structure that can be regarded as an assembly of tetra - and octahedral units of phosphate anions, aluminium cations and water. Al 3+ ions are 6-coordinate and PO 43- ions are 4-coordinate. [3] A synthetic hydrated form, AlPO 4 ·1.5H 2 O is also known.
Aluminium hydroxide, Al (OH)3, is found in nature as the mineral gibbsite (also known as hydrargillite) and its three much rarer polymorphs: bayerite, doyleite, and nordstrandite. Aluminium hydroxide is amphoteric, i.e., it has both basic and acidic properties. Closely related are aluminium oxide hydroxide, AlO (OH), and aluminium oxide or ...
003436. [ edit on Wikidata] Liver function tests (LFTs or LFs), also referred to as a hepatic panel, are groups of blood tests that provide information about the state of a patient's liver.

Pesticide formulation. The biological activity of a pesticide, be it chemical or biological in nature, is determined by its active ingredient (AI - also called the active substance). Pesticide products very rarely consist of the pure active ingredient. The AI is usually formulated with other materials (adjuvents and co-formulants) and this is ...
In a 2015 paper, unrelated medical researchers estimated that seven million Americans were living with at least one replaced knee, hip, or both in the year 2010.That combined percentage, about 2 ...

General side effects of bicalutamide that may occur in either sex include diarrhea, constipation, abdominal pain, nausea, dry skin, itching, and rash.
Vaccine ingredients. A vaccine dose contains many ingredients (stabilizers, adjuvants, residual inactivating ingredients, residual cell culture materials, residual antibiotics and preservatives) very little of which is the active ingredient, the immunogen. A single dose may have merely nanograms of virus particles, or micrograms of bacterial ...
