Aspirin. 2-(Acetyloxy)benzoic Acid . Acetysal . Acylpyrin . Aloxiprimum . Colfarit . Dispril . Easprin . Ecotrin . Endosprin . Magnecyl . Micristin . Polopirin . Polopiryna . Solprin . Solupsan . Zorprin . Acid, Acetylsalicylic . Acetylsalicylic Acid . The prototypical analgesic used in the treatment of mild to moderate pain. It has anti-inflammatory and antipyretic properties and acts as an inhibitor of cyclooxygenase which results in the inhibition of the biosynthesis of prostaglandins. Aspirin also inhibits platelet aggregation and is used in the prevention of arterial and venous thrombosis. (From Martindale, The Extra Pharmacopoeia, 30th ed, p5) . 1.00
Endosperm. Endosperms . Nutritive tissue of the seeds of flowering plants that surrounds the EMBRYOS. It is produced by a parallel process of fertilization in which a second male gamete from the pollen grain fuses with two female nuclei within the embryo sac. The endosperm varies in ploidy and contains reserves of starch, oils, and proteins, making it an important source of human nutrition. . 0.72
Endosomes. Endosome . Receptosome . Receptosomes . Cytoplasmic vesicles formed when COATED VESICLES shed their CLATHRIN coat. Endosomes internalize macromolecules bound by receptors on the cell surface. . 0.65
Electron Spin Resonance Spectroscopy. Electron Spin Resonance . Paramagnetic Resonance, Electron . Resonance, Electron Paramagnetic . Resonance, Electron Spin . Resonance, Paramagnetic . Electron Nuclear Double Resonance . Electron Paramagnetic Resonance . ENDOR . Paramagnetic Resonance . A technique applicable to the wide variety of substances which exhibit paramagnetism because of the magnetic moments of unpaired electrons. The spectra are useful for detection and identification, for determination of electron structure, for study of interactions between molecules, and for measurement of nuclear spins and moments. (From McGraw-Hill Encyclopedia of Science and Technology, 7th edition) Electron nuclear double resonance (ENDOR) spectroscopy is a variant of the technique which can give enhanced resolution. Electron spin resonance analysis can now be used in vivo, including imaging applications such as MAGNETIC RESONANCE IMAGING. . 0.63
