What's the difference between bromidism and bromism?

Bromidism


Definition:

Example Sentences:

  • (1) The effect of ipratropium bromide administered at two dosage levels, 40 and 80 mug, isoproterenol, 150 mug, and placebo using a metered dose inhaler was evaluated in ten adult patients with asthma in a double-blind, crossover study.

  • (10) Because previous work has shown that radioisotope release from parasites may be nonspecific, separate experiments were performed to determine the cytotoxicity of LAK cells against antibody-coated trophozoites by using ethidium bromide-acridine orange staining to assess effector cell damage.
  • (11) Key intermediate of the synthesis was 2-formyl-estradiol (2) which was prepared in quantitative yield through reaction of the phenoxymagnesium bromide of estradiol with formaldehyde in the presence of HMPA.
  • (12) The relative standard deviations for bromide at 10(-7) M and for iodide at 10(-8) M concentration were 1.9% and 3.0%, respectively, using a 10-mL sample for the determination without preconcentration.
  • (13) This enhancement of the release of radioactivity was inhibited by phospholipase A2 inhibitors, quinacrine (1 mM) and p-bromophenacyl bromide (10 microM), suggesting that polyethylenimine and polyallylamine activates phospholipase A2 to generate arachidonate and its metabolites.
  • (14) Plasmid sequences were readily observed by ethidium bromide staining of cellular DNA after restriction endonuclease digestion and agarose gel electrophoresis.
  • (15) Cytochemical localization of ovoperoxidase activity with diaminobenzidine revealed almost a total lack of staining of FEs from bromide-substituted sea water.
  • (16) Cells were exposed to chlorhexidine, hydrogen peroxide and sodium hypochlorite for 15 min and cell viability was assessed 24 h later with a colorimetric assay which utilizes the tetrazolium salt 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyl tetrazolium bromide (MTT).
  • (17) The sequence was obtained from analysis of peptides isolated from chymotryptic, cyanogen bromide, and limited acid cleavages of the protein.
  • (18) The latter compounds were reduced with lithium aluminium hydride to the respective amines (II a-c) and then N-alkylated by reaction with 2-propynyl-, 2-butynyl- or 2,3-butadienyl bromides to the corresponding amines (III a-j).
  • (19) When the detergents with aliphatic hydrophobic residues were compared, a cationic detergent cethylmethylammonium bromide (CTAB) was more toxic than non-ionic or anionic detergents.
  • (20) Cyanogen bromide cleavage of the 145000 subunit produced a single peptide of Mr 75000.

Bromism


Definition:

  • (n.) A diseased condition produced by the excessive use of bromine or one of its compounds. It is characterized by mental dullness and muscular weakness.

Example Sentences:
