  • (20) Hemoglobin carbamylation with sodium cyanate was used to study myocardial O2 delivery during increased oxyhemoglobin affinity.

Thiocyanate


Definition:

  • (n.) Same as Sulphocyanate.

Example Sentences:

  • (1) Neither were any significant differences found in blood carboxyhemoglobin nor serum thiocyanate.
  • (2) Conversion of the active-site thiol to thiocyanate makes it more difficult to inactivate the enzyme by treatment with Cd2+.
  • (3) Addition of potassium thiocyanate increased the number of high affinity [3H]AMPA binding sites without a change in affinity.
  • (4) Dogs fed on both gari diet and the rice + cyanide diet generated significant amounts of thiocyanate when compared with the controls, with the rice + cyanide group having higher plasma thiocyanate than the gari group (P less than 0.01).
  • (5) Pancreatic RNAs were isolated by the guanidinium thiocyanate method and layered onto CsCl cushion.
