  2. Process of elimination - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Process_of_elimination

    Process of elimination is a logical method to identify an entity of interest among several ones by excluding all other entities. In educational testing , it is a process of deleting options whereby the possibility of an option being correct is close to zero or significantly lower compared to other options.

  3. Elimination reaction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elimination_reaction

    Elimination reaction of cyclohexanol to cyclohexene with sulfuric acid and heat [1] An elimination reaction is a type of organic reaction in which two substituents are removed from a molecule in either a one- or two-step mechanism. [2] The one-step mechanism is known as the E2 reaction, and the two-step mechanism is known as the E1 reaction ...

  4. Elimination - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elimination

    Drug elimination, clearance of a drug or other foreign agent from the body; Elimination, the destruction of an infectious disease in one region of the world as opposed to its eradication from the entire world; Hazard elimination, the most effective type of hazard control; Elimination (pharmacology), processes by which a drug is eliminated from ...

  5. Excretion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Excretion

    Excretion is elimination of metabolic waste, which is an essential process in all organisms. In vertebrates , this is primarily carried out by the lungs , kidneys , and skin . [ 1 ] This is in contrast with secretion , where the substance may have specific tasks after leaving the cell .

  6. Reductive elimination - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reductive_elimination

    In many of these catalytic cycles, reductive elimination is the product forming step and regenerates the catalyst; however, in the Heck reaction [17] and Wacker process, [18] reductive elimination is involved only in catalyst regeneration, as the products in these reactions are formed via β–hydride elimination.

  7. Elimination (pharmacology) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elimination_(pharmacology)

    The other elimination pathways are less important in the elimination of drugs, except in very specific cases, such as the respiratory tract for alcohol or anaesthetic gases. The case of mother's milk is of special importance. The liver and kidneys of newly born infants are relatively undeveloped and they are highly sensitive to a drug's toxic ...

  8. Elimination theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elimination_theory

    Elimination theory culminated with the work of Leopold Kronecker, and finally Macaulay, who introduced multivariate resultants and U-resultants, providing complete elimination methods for systems of polynomial equations, which are described in the chapter on Elimination theory in the first editions (1930) of van der Waerden's Moderne Algebra.

  9. Elimination reaction of free radicals - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elimination_reaction_of...

    This process is known as the radical mediated depolymerization of polystyrene. Radical elimination reactions are found in enzyme-catalyzed pathways. In the dehydrogenation reaction of acyl-CoA to form enoyl-CoA, FAD accepts two protons and two electrons to form FADH2 under the catalysis of acyl-CoA dehydrogenase . [ 3 ]
