Tetravalent
Definition:
(a.) Having a valence of four; tetratomic; quadrivalent.
Example Sentences:

(19) While the stimulatory effect of vanadate, an anion of pentavalent vanadium, on adenylate cyclase (AC) has been repeatedly demonstrated in various tissues only a few studies have been hitherto devoted to the effect of vanadyl, a cation of tetravalent vanadium, but these have provided contradictory results.
(20) PFRAP results reported here show that: (a) most clustered AChR (approximately 86%) are rotationally immobile within a time scale of at least several seconds; and (b) most nonclustered AChR (approximately 76%) are rotationally mobile with characteristic times ranging from less than 50 ms to 0.1 s. External cross-linking with the tetravalent lectin concanavalin A immobilizes many nonclustered AChR.
