03-19-2022-2345 - sodium iodine phosphorous
Sodium is a chemical element with the symbol Na (from Latin natrium) and atomic number 11. It is a soft, silvery-white, highly reactive metal.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sodium
Phosphorous can refer to:
- Phosphorus hydrides (4 P)
M
- Metal hydrides (78 P)
B
- Borohydrides (12 P)
High-energy phosphate can mean one of two things:
- The phosphate-phosphate (phosphoanhydride/phosphoric anhydride/macroergic/phosphagen)[1][2][3] bonds formed when compounds such as adenosine diphosphate (ADP) and adenosine triphosphate (ATP) are created.
- The compounds that contain these bonds, which include the nucleoside diphosphates and nucleoside triphosphates, and the high-energy storage compounds of the muscle, the phosphagens. When people speak of a high-energy phosphate pool, they speak of the total concentration of these compounds with these high-energy bonds.
High-energy phosphate bonds are usually pyrophosphate bonds, acid anhydride linkages formed by taking phosphoric acid derivatives and dehydrating them. As a consequence, the hydrolysis of these bonds is exergonic under physiological conditions, releasing energy.
| Reaction |
|---|
| ATP + H2O → ADP + Pi |
| ADP + H2O → AMP + Pi |
| ATP + H2O → AMP + PPi |
| PPi + H2O → 2 Pi |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/High-energy_phosphate
In chemistry, pyrophosphates are phosphorus oxyanions that contain two phosphorus atoms in a P–O–P linkage. A number of pyrophosphate salts exist, such as disodium pyrophosphate (Na2H2P2O7) and tetrasodium pyrophosphate (Na4P2O7), among others. Often pyrophosphates are called diphosphates. The parent pyrophosphates are derived from partial or complete neutralization of pyrophosphoric acid. The pyrophosphate bond is also sometimes referred to as a phosphoanhydride bond, a naming convention which emphasizes the loss of water that occurs when two phosphates form a new P–O–P bond, and which mirrors the nomenclature for anhydrides of carboxylic acids. Pyrophosphates are found in ATP and other nucleotide triphosphates, which are very important in biochemistry.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pyrophosphate
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tetrasodium_pyrophosphate
Lombricine is a phosphagen that is unique to earthworms. Structurally, it is a phosphodiester of 2-guanidinoethanol and D-serine (not the usual L-serine),[1] which is then further phosphorylated by lombricine kinase to phospholombricine.

03-19-2022-2342 - quinine quinidine quinone quinolone (dr bettey dvm)
Quinine is a medication used to treat malaria and babesiosis.[4] This includes the treatment of malaria due to Plasmodium falciparum that is resistant to chloroquine when artesunate is not available.[4][5] While sometimes used for nocturnal leg cramps, quinine is not recommended for this purpose due to the risk of serious side effects.[4] It can be taken by mouth or intravenously.[4] Malaria resistance to quinine occurs in certain areas of the world.[4] Quinine is also the ingredient in tonic water that gives it its bitter taste.[6]
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quinine
Quinidine is a medication that acts as a class I antiarrhythmic agent (Ia) in the heart.[1] It is a stereoisomer of quinine, originally derived from the bark of the cinchona tree. The drug causes increased action potential duration, as well as a prolonged QT interval.
As of 2019 it is no longer being manufactured for use in the United States.[2]
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quinidine
The quinones are a class of organic compounds that are formally "derived from aromatic compounds [such as benzene or naphthalene] by conversion of an even number of –CH= groups into –C(=O)– groups with any necessary rearrangement of double bonds, resulting in "a fully conjugated cyclic dione structure".[1][2][3] The archetypical member of the class is 1,4-benzoquinone or cyclohexadienedione, often called simply "quinone" (thus the name of the class). Other important examples are 1,2-benzoquinone (ortho-quinone), 1,4-naphthoquinone and 9,10-anthraquinone.
The name is derived from that of quinic acid (with the suffix "-one" indicating a ketone), since it is one of the compounds obtained upon oxidation of quinic acid.[4] Quinic acid, like quinine is obtained from cinchona bark, called quinaquina in Spanish.

Quinolone may refer to:
03-19-2022-2341 - Sulfadoxine
Sulfadoxine (also spelled sulphadoxine) is an ultra-long-lasting sulfonamide used in combination with pyrimethamine to treat malaria.[1]
It is also used to prevent malaria[2] but due to high levels of resistance, this use is becoming less common.[3]
It is also used, usually in combination with other drugs, to treat or prevent various infections in livestock.[citation needed]
03-19-2022-2250 - Phosphorus-32, radionucleotide, radiolabeled nucleotide, substitution, radionuclide, etc. phosphorus, phosphorous tritium acid
Phosphorus-32 (32P) is a radioactive isotope of phosphorus. The nucleus of phosphorus-32 contains 15 protons and 17 neutrons, one more neutron than the most common isotope of phosphorus, phosphorus-31. Phosphorus-32 only exists in small quantities on Earth as it has a short half-life of 14 days and so decays rapidly.
Phosphorus is found in many organic molecules and so phosphorus-32 has many applications in medicine, biochemistry, and molecular biology where it can be used to trace phosphorylated molecules (for example, in elucidating metabolic pathways) and radioactively label DNA.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phosphorus-32
Radionucleotide may refer to:
- In experimental biochemistry, a nucleotide that is radiolabeled with a radionuclide such as phosphorus-32
- When used in clinical medical literature, usually a malapropism for the intended term radionuclide
Examples[edit]
The following table lists properties of selected radionuclides illustrating the range of properties and uses.
