Oxibendazole
Oxibendazole is used to protect against roundworms, strongyles, threadworms, pinworms and lungworm infestations in horses and some domestic pets. It is usually white to yellowish in appearance, and may take the form of a powder or a tablet. ..

OxiClean
OxiClean is a cleaning product marketed through infomercials (mostly featuring Billy Mays) as a 'miracle cleanser', ostensibly a miracle 'oxygen' chemical. In reality, it is sodium percarbonate (C2H8Na4O12), a detergent and bleaching agent which produces hydrogen peroxide when dissolved in water. ..

Oxiconazole
Oxiconazole nitrate (US: Oxistat®, Canada: Oxizole®) is an antifungal medication typically used as a cream or lotion to treat skin infections such as athlete's foot. External links [MedlinePlus] - Oxiconazole (Topical)[MedlinePlus] - Oxiconazole Antifungals (D01..

Oxidase
An oxidase is any enzyme that catalyzes an oxidation/reduction reaction involving molecular oxygen (O2) as the electron acceptor. In these reactions, oxygen is reduced to water (H2O) or hydrogen peroxide (H2O2). The oxidases are a subclass of the oxidoreductases. An important example is cytochrome ..

Oxidase test
The oxidase test is a test used in microbiology to determine if a bacterium produces certain cytochrome c oxidases. It uses disks impregnated with a reagent such as N,N,N′,N′-Tetramethyl-p-phenylenediamine (TMPD) or N,N-Dimethyl-p-phenylenediamine (DMPD), which is also a redox indicator. The rea..

Oxidation number
In chemical nomenclature, the oxidation number (formerly known as the Stock number) of an element in a molecule or complex is the charge that it would bear if all the ligands were removed along with the electron pairs that were shared with the central atom. It is used in the Stock nomenclature of in..

Oxidation state
In chemistry, the oxidation state is a measure of the degree of oxidation of an atom in a chemical compound. It is the hypothetical charge that an atom would have if all bonds to atoms of different elements were 100% ionic. Oxidation states are represented by Arabic numerals, and are always associat..

Oxidative addition
Oxidative addition and reductive elimination are two important classes of reactions in organometallic chemistry. Their relationship is shown below where y represents the number of ligands on the metal and n is the oxidation state of the metal. --> In oxidative addition, a metal complex with vaca..

Oxidative decarboxylation
Some of the information in this has not been [Verifiabilityverified] and might not be reliable. It should be checked for inaccuracies and modified as needed, [cite sourcesciting sources]. Oxidative decarboxylation is the name given to the preparation of pyruvate, a product of gl..

Oxidative enzyme
An oxidative enzyme is a enzyme which catalyses oxidation reaction. Two most common types of oxidative enzymes are peroxidases, which use hydrogen peroxide, and oxidases, which use molecular oxygen. ..

Oxidative folding
Oxidative folding can occur only in a protein that may be unfolded conformationally by reducing its disulfide bond(s). In such proteins, the oxidation of its disulfide bond(s) is coupled to its conformational folding. Classic examples of oxidative folding include bovine pancreatic trypsin inhibitor..

Oxidative phosphorylation
Oxidative phosphorylation is a biochemical process in cells. It is the final metabolic pathway of cellular respiration, after glycolysis and the citric acid cycle. The process takes place at a biological membrane. In prokaryotes this is the plasma membrane, and in eukaryotes it is the inner of the..

Oxidative stress
Oxidative stress is a medical term for damage to animal or plant cells (and thereby the organs and tissues composed of those cells) caused by reactive oxygen species, which include (but are not limited to) superoxide, singlet oxygen, peroxynitrite or hydrogen peroxide. It is defined as an imbalance..

Oxide
An oxide is a chemical compound of oxygen with other chemical elements. In the 18th century, oxides were named calxes or calces after the calcination process used to produce oxides. Calx was later replaced by oxyd. See for a list of oxides. Contents 1 Current naming2 Chemical propert..

Oxide & Neutrino
Oxide & Neutrino are a DJ and MC duo from London, comprising Alex Rivers (b. 1982 in Isleworth, London) and Mark Oseitutu (b. Brixton, London). Their first single Bound 4 Da Reload went to number 1 in the UK singles charts in May 2000. It is famously known for sampling the theme song to the BBC'..

Oxide Radio
Oxide Radio, also known as Oxide 87.9FM, is the student radio station of Oxford University. Oxide Radio succeeded Altered Radio and it is owned by the Student Union and run by its commercial arm, Oxford Student Services Ltd. At the 2005 Student Radio Awards Oxide was awarded the gold award for 'Bes..

Oxide side
The oxide side of a tape is the surface that can be magnetically manipulated by a tape head. This is the side that stores the information, the opposite side is simply a substrate to hold the tape together. The name origonates from the fact that the magnetic side of most tapes is made of an oxide of ..

Oxidization
Oxidization is the process whereby fatty acids are degraded in steps, losing 2 carbons as CoA (acetyl). Involves CoA ester formation, desaturation, hydroxylation and oxidation before each cleavage. See also Oxidation ..

Oxidoreductase
In biochemistry, an oxidoreductase is an enzyme that catalyzes the transfer of electrons from one molecule (the oxidant, also called the hydrogen donor or electron donor) to another (the reductant, also called the hydrogen acceptor or electron acceptor). For example, an enzyme that catalyzed this re..

Oxime
An oxime is one in a class of chemical compounds with the general formula R1R2CNOH, where R1 is an organic side chain and R2 is either hydrogen, forming an aldoxime, or another organic group, forming a ketoxime.
