As an anti-inflammatory, dapsone inhibits the myeloperoxidase-H 2 O 2-halide-mediated cytotoxic system in polymorphonucleocytes. [50] As part of the respiratory burst that neutrophils use to kill bacteria, myeloperoxidase converts hydrogen peroxide (H 2 O 2) into hypochlorous acid (HOCl). HOCl is the most potent oxidant generated by neutrophils ...
A dihydrofolate reductase inhibitor (DHFR inhibitor) is a molecule that inhibits the function of dihydrofolate reductase, and is a type of antifolate.. Since folate is needed by rapidly dividing cells to make thymine, this effect may be used to therapeutic advantage.
1,2-Dihydro-1,2-azaborine is an aromatic chemical compound with properties intermediate between benzene and borazine. Its chemical formula is C 4 BNH 6 . It resembles a benzene ring, except that two adjacent carbons are replaced by nitrogen and boron, respectively.
The hectograph, gelatin duplicator or jellygraph is a printing process that involves transfer of an original, prepared with special inks, to a pan of gelatin or a gelatin pad pulled tight on a metal frame.
A hydrocolloid dressing is biodegradable, [2] breathable, and depending on the dressing selected, may adhere to the skin, so no separate taping is needed. [ 3 ] The active surface of the dressing is coated with a cross-linked adhesive mass containing a dispersion of gelatin, pectin and carboxymethyl cellulose together with other polymers and ...
Hydroxybenzotriazole (abbreviated HOBt) is an organic compound that is a derivative of benzotriazole.It is a white crystalline powder, which as a commercial product contains some water (~11.7% wt as the HOBt monohydrate crystal).
At that point in the reaction, which is defined as gel point, the system loses fluidity and viscosity becomes very large. The onset of gelation, or gel point, is accompanied by a sudden increase in viscosity. [3] This "infinite" sized polymer is called the gel or network, which does not dissolve in the solvent, but can swell in it. [4]
1,6-Hexanediol diglycidyl ether is an organic chemical in the glycidyl ether family. It is an aliphatic compound that is a colorless liquid. It has two epoxide (oxirane) groups per molecule. Its main use is in modifying epoxy resins especially viscosity reduction whilst flexibilizing. [2] It is REACH registered. [3]
