1-Aminopentane is an organic compound with the formula CH 3 (CH 2) 4 NH 2. It is used as a solvent , as a raw material in the manufacture of a variety of other compounds, including dyes, emulsifiers , and pharmaceutical products, [ 1 ] and as a flavoring agent .
Sodium citrate/sodium lauryl sulfoacetate/glycerol sold under the brandname Microlax and Micolette Micro enema, among others, is a small tube of liquid gel that is used to treat constipation. [ 1 ] The main active ingredients are sodium lauryl sulfoacetate (0.90% w/v ), sodium citrate (9.0% w/v ) and glycerol .
Side effects may include irritation of the vein in which it is given, high blood sugar, and swelling. [2] [3] Excess use may result in low blood sodium and other electrolyte problems. [2] Intravenous sugar solutions are in the crystalloid family of medications. [4] They come in a number of strengths including 5%, 10%, and 50% dextrose. [2]
Formulations include plain sodium citrate, acid-citrate-dextrose, and more. Oxalate has a mechanism similar to that of citrate. It is the anticoagulant used in fluoride/oxalate tubes to determine glucose and lactate levels. The fluoride inhibits glycolysis, which can throw off blood sugar measurements. Citrate/fluoride/EDTA tubes work better in ...
Mannitol is a type of sugar alcohol used as a sweetener and medication. [5] [6] It is used as a low calorie sweetener as it is poorly absorbed by the intestines. [5]As a medication, it is used to decrease pressure in the eyes, as in glaucoma, and to lower increased intracranial pressure.

Dextran is a complex branched glucan (polysaccharide derived from the condensation of glucose), originally derived from wine. IUPAC defines dextrans as "Branched poly-α-d-glucosides of microbial origin having glycosidic bonds predominantly C-1 → C-6". [1] Dextran chains are of varying lengths (from 3 to 2000 kilodaltons).
Acid-citrate-dextrose or acid-citrate-dextrose solution (ACD; also known as anticoagulant-citrate-dextrose or anticoagulant-citrate-dextrose solution) is any solution of citric acid, sodium citrate, and dextrose in water. It is mainly used as an anticoagulant (in yellow top tubes) [1] to preserve blood specimens required for tissue typing.
