Streptokinase. Avelizin . Awelysin . Celiase . Distreptase . Kabikinase . Kabivitrum . Streptase . Streptodecase . Streptococcal fibrinolysin . An enzyme produced by hemolytic streptococci. It hydrolyzes amide linkages and serves as an activator of plasminogen. It is used in thrombolytic therapy and is used also in mixtures with streptodornase (STREPTODORNASE AND STREPTOKINASE). EC 3.4.-. . 1.00
Deoxyribonuclease I. DNA Endonuclease . DNA Nicking Enzyme . DNAase I . Dornavac . Endonuclease I . Nickase . Pancreatic DNase . T4-Endonuclease II . T7-Endonuclease I . Thymonuclease . DNase, Pancreatic . Endonuclease, DNA . T4 Endonuclease II . T7 Endonuclease I . DNase I . Streptodornase . An enzyme capable of hydrolyzing highly polymerized DNA by splitting phosphodiester linkages, preferentially adjacent to a pyrimidine nucleotide. This catalyzes endonucleolytic cleavage of DNA yielding 5'-phosphodi- and oligonucleotide end-products. The enzyme has a preference for double-stranded DNA. . 0.59
Streptodornase and Streptokinase. Varidase . Streptokinase and Streptodornase . A mixture of the enzymes (streptokinase and streptodornase) produced by hemolytic streptococci. It is used topically on surface lesions and by instillation in closed body cavities to remove clotted blood or fibrinous or purulent accumulations. It is also used as a skin test antigen in evaluating generalized cell-mediated immunodeficiency. (Dorland, 27th ed) EC 3.-. . 0.58
Streptococcus. A genus of gram-positive, coccoid bacteria whose organisms occur in pairs or chains. No endospores are produced. Many species exist as commensals or parasites on man or animals with some being highly pathogenic. A few species are saprophytes and occur in the natural environment. . 0.49
Streptococcinum. Homeopathic remedy. Nosode. Abbrev.: "streptoc.". Animal origin. Substance used: culture of streptococcus pyogenes. Note: P.S.- There is pathogenetic study for this substance. . 0.46
Viridans Streptococci. Streptococcus viridans . Streptococcus Viridans Group . A large heterogeneous group of mostly alpha-hemolytic streptococci. They colonize the respiratory tract at birth and generally have a low degree of pathogenicity. This group of species includes STREPTOCOCCUS MITIS; STREPTOCOCCUS MUTANS; STREPTOCOCCUS ORALIS; STREPTOCOCCUS SANGUIS; STREPTOCOCCUS SOBRINUS; and the STREPTOCOCCUS MILLERI GROUP. The latter are often beta-hemolytic and commonly produce invasive pyogenic infections including brain and abdominal abscesses. . 0.43
