  2. N-Chlorosuccinimide - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/N-Chlorosuccinimide

    N-Chlorosuccinimide (NCS) is the organic compound with the formula C 2 H 4 (CO) 2 NCl. This white solid is used for chlorinations. [2] It is also used as a mild oxidant. [3] NCS is related to succinimide, but with N-Cl in place of N-H. The N–Cl bond is highly reactive, and NCS functions as a source of "Cl +".

    Thiocyanate [6] is known to be an important part in the biosynthesis of hypothiocyanite by a lactoperoxidase. [7] [8] [9] Thus the complete absence of thiocyanate or reduced thiocyanate [10] in the human body, (e.g., cystic fibrosis) is damaging to the human host defense system.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Succinimide

    Succinimide is an organic compound with the formula (CH 2) 2 (CO) 2 NH. This white solid is used in a variety of organic syntheses, as well as in some industrial silver plating processes. The compound is classified as a cyclic imide. It may be prepared by thermal decomposition of ammonium succinate. [4]

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pan-Cancer_Analysis

    Pan-cancer studies aim to detect the genes whose mutation is conducive to oncogenesis, as well as recurrent genomic events or aberrations between different tumors.For these studies, it is necessary to standardize the data between multiple platforms, establishing criteria between different researchers to work on the data and present the results.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Molecular_diagnostics

    Molecular diagnostics tool can be used for cancer risk assessment. For example, the BRCA1/2 test by Myriad Genetics assesses women for lifetime risk of breast cancer. [22] Also, some cancers are not always employed with clear symptoms. It is useful to analyze people when they do not show obvious symptoms and thus can detect cancer at early stages.

  8. Plant sources of anti-cancer agents - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plant_sources_of_anti...

    Extracts from Camptotheca (the "happy tree" or "cancer tree") were used to develop the chemotherapeutic drug Topotecan. Plant sources of anti-cancer agents are plants, the derivatives of which have been shown to be usable for the treatment or prevention of cancer in humans. [1] [2]

  9. Bioassay - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bioassay

    Ames test procedure. One classical bioassay is the Ames test. A strain of Salmonella that requires histidine to grow is put on two plates with growth medium containing minimal amounts of histidine and some rat liver extract (to mimick liver metabolism). A suspected mutagen is added to one plate. If the plate with the suspected mutagen grows ...
