Cross-reactivity, in a general sense, is the reactivity of an observed agent which initiates reactions outside the main reaction expected.This has implications for any kind of test or assay, including diagnostic tests in medicine, and can be a cause of false positives.
Interference and exploitation competition can be classed as "real" forms of competition, while apparent competition is not, as organisms do not share a resource, but instead share a predator. [3] Competition among members of the same species is known as intraspecific competition , while competition between individuals of different species is ...
Antimutagens are the agents that interfere with the mutagenicity of a substance. [1] The interference can be in the form of prevention of the transformation of a promutagenic compound into actual active mutagen, inactivation, or otherwise the prevention of Mutagen- DNA reaction.
A popular example of drug–food interaction is the effect of grapefruit on the metabolism of drugs. Interactions may occur by simultaneous targeting of receptors , directly or indirectly. For example, both Zolpidem and alcohol affect GABA A receptors , and their simultaneous consumption results in the overstimulation of the receptor, which can ...
A therapeutic interfering particle is an antiviral preparation that reduces the replication rate and pathogenesis of a particular viral infectious disease. A therapeutic interfering particle is typically a biological agent (i.e., nucleic acid) engineered from portions of the viral genome being targeted.
Corn syrup explained: The liquid sweetener manages the unlikely feat of being one of the most valuable and most misunderstood ingredients in the kitchen.
In an email to CBS News, General Mills said food safety is a top priority, and although "most crops grown in fields use some form of pesticides and trace amounts are found in the majority of food ...
Rotenone works by interfering with the electron transport chain within complex I in mitochondria, which places it in IRAC MoA class 21 (by itself in 21B). [38] It inhibits the transfer of electrons from iron-sulfur centers in complex I to ubiquinone. This interferes with NADH during the creation of usable cellular energy . [28]
