Diffusion des rayons XLa diffusion des rayons X (X-ray scattering en anglais) est une technique d'analyse basée sur la diffusion des ondes de rayons X par une substance. Alors que la diffraction des rayons X ne peut être utilisée qu'avec des substances cristallines, la diffusion des rayons X peut être utilisée pour des substances cristallines ou amorphes. La diffusion des rayons X est basée sur l'interaction des rayons X avec les électrons des atomes. La diffusion des rayons X peut être élastique ou inélastique.
Sulfate mineralThe sulfate minerals are a class of minerals that include the sulfate ion (SO42−) within their structure. The sulfate minerals occur commonly in primary evaporite depositional environments, as gangue minerals in hydrothermal veins and as secondary minerals in the oxidizing zone of sulfide mineral deposits. The chromate and manganate minerals have a similar structure and are often included with the sulfates in mineral classification systems.
Rapport de Redfielddroite|vignette| Relation entre l'absorption de phosphate et l'absorption de nitrate au cours de la photosynthèse dans diverses régions de l'océan. À noter que le nitrate est plus souvent limitant que le phosphate. Le rapport de Redfield ou stœchiométrie de Redfield est le rapport atomique constant qui existe entre le carbone, l'azote et le phosphore présent dans le phytoplancton marin et dans l'océan profond.
Estradiol benzoateEstradiol benzoate (EB), sold under the brand name Progynon-B among others, is an estrogen medication which is used in hormone therapy for menopausal symptoms and low estrogen levels in women, in hormone therapy for transgender women, and in the treatment of gynecological disorders. It is also used in the treatment of prostate cancer in men. Estradiol benzoate is used in veterinary medicine as well. When used clinically, the medication is given by injection into muscle usually two to three times per week.
Estrone (medication)Estrone (E1), sold under the brand names Estragyn, Kestrin, and Theelin among many others, is an estrogen medication and naturally occurring steroid hormone which has been used in menopausal hormone therapy and for other indications. It has been provided as an aqueous suspension or oil solution given by injection into muscle and as a vaginal cream applied inside of the vagina. It can also be taken by mouth as estradiol/estrone/estriol (brand name Hormonin) and in the form of prodrugs like estropipate (estrone sulfate; brand name Ogen) and conjugated estrogens (mostly estrone sulfate; brand name Premarin).
