  2. Rh blood group system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rh_blood_group_system

    Thus, notwithstanding it is a misnomer, the term survives (e.g., rhesus blood group system and the obsolete terms rhesus factor, rhesus positive, and rhesus negative – all three of which actually refer specifically and only to the Rh D factor and are thus misleading when unmodified). Contemporary practice is to use "Rh" as a term of art ...

  3. Anti-rheumatoid factor antibodies are also increased. [95] In addition, cross-reactive anti-beef-collagen antibodies (IgG) may explain some rheumatoid arthritis (RA) incidences. [ 96 ] Although the presence of anti-beef collagen antibodies does not necessarily lead to RA, the RA association with Triticeae consumption is secondary to GSE and ...

    β-Hydroxy β-methylbutyric acid [note 1] (HMB), otherwise known as its conjugate base, β-hydroxy β-methylbutyrate, is a naturally produced substance in humans that is used as a dietary supplement and as an ingredient in certain medical foods that are intended to promote wound healing and provide nutritional support for people with muscle wasting due to cancer or HIV/AIDS.

  9. Magnesium - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnesium

    Mg(OH) 2 + 2 HCl → MgCl 2 + 2 H 2 O. The salt is then electrolyzed in the molten state. At the cathode, the Mg 2+ ion is reduced by two electrons to magnesium metal: Mg 2+ + 2 e − → Mg. At the anode, each pair of Cl − ions is oxidized to chlorine gas, releasing two electrons to complete the circuit: 2 Cl − → Cl 2 (g) + 2 e −
