What's the difference between alkali and kaligenous?
Alkali
Definition:
(n.) Soda ash; caustic soda, caustic potash, etc.
(n.) One of a class of caustic bases, such as soda, potash, ammonia, and lithia, whose distinguishing peculiarities are solubility in alcohol and water, uniting with oils and fats to form soap, neutralizing and forming salts with acids, turning to brown several vegetable yellows, and changing reddened litmus to blue.
Example Sentences:
(1) Significant amounts of 35S-labeled material were lost during the alkali treatment.

(3) Rabbits eating Rabbit Chow excreted a very alkaline urine, but rats eating the same diet excreted much less alkali when expressed per kilogram of body weight.
(4) From these findings it is concluded that cardiac performance and carbohydrate metabolism are accelerated in alkali and depressed in acid perfusion, and that myocardial metabolism could be affected by pH not only secondary to the change of performance but also by itself.
(5) Electrophoresis, Sephadex chromatography, and ultrafiltration studies showed that the alkali-soluble, water-soluble cell wall antigen is comprised of lipid, polysaccharide, and protein and has a molecular weight range of 30,000 to 50,000.

(8) TFP produced a more discrete block in the repair of alkali-labile lesions in DNA.
(9) Activation of GV by monochromatic 450-nm radiation causes two specific DNA changes in human P3 cells in culture as shown by alkaline elution techniques: single-strand breaks (i.e., alkali-labile sites plus frank strand scissions) and DNA-to-protein covalent bond crosslinks.
(10) Keratan sulphate was isolated from bovine intervertebral disc and bovine nasal septum after hydrolysis with proteinases and treatment with dilute alkali.
(11) It was necessary to avoid CsCl banding of procapsids in their preparation as this treatment altered both their pI and their sensitivity to alkali dissociation into 14S subunits.

Definition:
(a.) Forming alkalies with oxygen, as some metals.
