  2. Xylitol - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Xylitol

    Xylitol has about the same sweetness as sucrose, [15] but is sweeter than similar compounds like sorbitol and mannitol. [10] Xylitol is stable enough to be used in baking, [18] but because xylitol and other polyols are more heat-stable, they do not caramelise as sugars do. When used in foods, they lower the freezing point of the mixture. [19]

  3. Xylometazoline - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Xylometazoline

    Xylometazoline works by stimulating adrenergic receptors on the lamina propria of blood vessels in the nose. The decongestant effect is due to constriction of large veins in the nose which swell up during the inflammation of any infection or allergy of the nose.

  4. Xylose metabolism - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Xylose_metabolism

    XR catalyze the formation of xylitol from D-xylose and XDH the formation of D-xylulose from xylitol. Saccharomyces cerevisiae can naturally ferment D-xylulose through the pentose phosphate pathway. In another approach, bacterial xylose isomerases have been introduced into S. cerevisiae. This enzyme catalyze the direct formation of D-xylulose ...

  6. Sugar alcohol - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sugar_alcohol

    Sugar alcohols can be, and often are, produced from renewable resources.Particular feedstocks are starch, cellulose and hemicellulose; the main conversion technologies use H 2 as the reagent: hydrogenolysis, i.e. the cleavage of C−O single bonds, converting polymers to smaller molecules, and hydrogenation of C=O double bonds, converting sugars to sugar alcohols.

    Another way to look at costs is to determine the expected cost of establishing a pregnancy. Thus, if a clomiphene treatment has a chance to establish a pregnancy in 8% of cycles and costs $800, the expected cost is $9,700 to establish a pregnancy, compared to an IVF cycle (cycle fecundity 40%) with a corresponding expected cost of $48,300 ...

  8. Diethylcarbamazine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diethylcarbamazine

    Diethylcarbamazine is a medication used in the treatment of filariasis including lymphatic filariasis, tropical pulmonary eosinophilia, and loiasis. [1] It may also be used for prevention of loiasis in those at high risk. [1] While it has been used for onchocerciasis (river blindness), ivermectin is preferred. [2] It is taken by mouth. [3]

  9. Fructose malabsorption - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fructose_malabsorption

    Foods containing artificial sweeteners like sorbitol (present in some diet drinks and foods and occurring naturally in some stone fruits), xylitol (present in some berries) and other polyols (sugar alcohols, such as erythritol, mannitol and other ingredients that end with -tol, commonly added as in commercial foods).
