What's the difference between denitration and nitrate?

Denitration


Definition:

  • (n.) A disengaging, or removal, of nitric acid.

Example Sentences:

  • (11) The pharmacokinetics of glyceryl trinitrate are complex and only 1% of the drug administered orally can be detected in the plasma due to a pronounced arteriovenous concentration gradient, hydrolysis in the blood, and rapid denitration in the liver.
  • (12) Rat liver microsomes catalyze the oxidative denitration of N omega-hydroxy-L-arginine (NOHA) by NADPH and O2 with formation of citrulline and nitrogen oxides like NO and NO2-.

  • (14) Enzymatic denitration occurs not only in the liver, but also in blood and other organs.
  • (15) The common denominator appears to be the intracellular production of nitric oxide (NO), which is the activated product of organic nitrate denitration.
  • (16) Calculations based on the two mononitrate metabolites formed from ISDN showed an incomplete recovery of 84.1%, leading to the assumption that a simultaneous denitration to IS must have occurred.

  • (18) 2-Nicotinamidoethyl alcohol, a denitrated compound of SG-75, had no vasodilator action in doses comparable to those of the parent compound.
  • (19) However, unchanged nicorandil and denitrated metabolite excreted into the urine represent only about 1 and 4% of the dose, respectively.
  • (20) Glyceryl trinitrate was denitrated by rat liver microsomes in the presence of NADPH with formation of a mixture of glyceryl dinitrates and glyceryl mononitrates.

Nitrate


Definition:

  • (n.) A salt of nitric acid.

Example Sentences:

  • (1) In this study, a potassium nitrate-polycarboxylate cement was used as a liner and was found clinically to tend to preserve pulpal vitality and significantly eliminate or decrease postoperative pain.
  • (2) Carbopol-940 gels, being the best of those used, were studied further for the effect of its concentration and of additives (benzalkonium chloride, phenylmercuric nitrate, chlorbutol and disodium edetate), autoclaving at 121 degrees C for 30 min and irradiation with gamma rays (2.5 Mrad), on the end product.
  • (3) The narX gene product may be involved in sensing nitrate and phosphorylating NARL.
  • (4) A new long-acting nitrate, Isomak R (forte), has been shown to be an effective antianginal drug; it increases physical stress tolerance, prevents attacks of angina of effort or angina at rest, significantly decreases pulmonary arterial occlusion pressure, peripheral arterial pressure and total peripheral resistance.
  • (5) The calculated daily intake of NO3- is significantly increased by drinking water nitrate content.
  • (6) Pharmacologic modulations of ATECD by isosorbide dinitrate (ISDN) + 2-isosorbide mononitrate (2-ISMN) + 5-isosorbide mononitrate (5-ISMN) were investigated under experimental conditions reflecting either an acute nitrate effect (platelet + control ECs + drug + ADP) or a chronic effect (platelet + 5-day nitrate-treated ECs + ADP).
  • (7) Nitrate reductase activity in the mice fed the fibre-free diet did not markedly alter with age.
  • (8) Although gallium nitrate inhibited cell growth in Tf-free medium, cellular proliferation was restored by Fe-NTA.
  • (9) However, neither nitration with tetranitromethane of one of the nine tyrosine residues nor Nlm-ethoxyformylation of two of the four histidine residues caused any change in hemolytic activity.
  • (10) Most of the patients with hypotension were taking nitrates.
  • (11) Nitrate measures for private water sources were obtained by testing the wells individually at the existing residences.
  • (12) The nitrate metabolites showed sustained plasma profiles which can be explained by a slow release of GTN with subsequent complete first-pass denitration.
