[1] [2] [3] Cohn describes its use to detect the principal components of digitalis (note that they may not be alkaloids). [4] The reaction with this reagent is also known as the Keller–Kiliani reaction, after C. C. Keller and H. Kiliani, who both used it to study digitalis in the late 19th century.
Keller's reagent can refer to two different reagents: Keller's reagent (metallurgy), ... This page was last edited on 8 December 2024, at 15:22 (UTC).
The Kiliani–Fischer synthesis, named for German chemists Heinrich Kiliani and Emil Fischer, is a method for synthesizing monosaccharides.It proceeds via synthesis and hydrolysis of a cyanohydrin, followed by reduction of the intermediate acid to the aldehyde, thus elongating the carbon chain of an aldose by one carbon atom while preserving stereochemistry on all the previously present chiral ...
Cardiac glycosides are a class of organic compounds that increase the output force of the heart and decrease its rate of contractions by inhibiting the cellular sodium-potassium ATPase pump. [1] Their beneficial medical uses include treatments for congestive heart failure and cardiac arrhythmias ; however, their relative toxicity prevents them ...
Cardiac monitoring generally refers to continuous or intermittent monitoring of heart activity to assess a patient's condition relative to their cardiac rhythm.Cardiac monitoring is usually carried out using electrocardiography, which is a noninvasive process that records the heart's electrical activity and displays it in an electrocardiogram.

A new study compares the benefits and risks of taking GLP-1 medications for weight loss, including risks of dementia, addiction, heart disease, and gastrointestinal problems, among others.
Aesculetin forms dark brown or black complexes with ferric citrate, allowing the test to be read. The bile aesculin agar is streaked and incubated at 37 °C (99 °F) for 24 hours. The presence of a dark brown or black halo indicates that the test is positive. A positive test can occur with Enterococcus, Aerococcus, and Leuconostoc.
The glucose tolerance test was first described in 1923 by Jerome W. Conn. [4]The test was based on the previous work in 1913 by A. T. B. Jacobson in determining that carbohydrate ingestion results in blood glucose fluctuations, [5] and the premise (named the Staub-Traugott Phenomenon after its first observers H. Staub in 1921 and K. Traugott in 1922) that a normal patient fed glucose will ...
