oxidation-reduction potential (medicine) and tubuloracemose (medicine)


oxidation-reduction potential (medicine)


oxidation-reduction potential
<chemistry, physics> The potential in volts of an inert metallic electrode measured in a system of an arbitrarily chosen ratio of [oxidant] to [reductant] and referred to the normal hydrogen electrode at absolute temperature.

It is calculated from the following equation: where R is the gas constant expressed in electrical units, T the absolute temperature (Kelvin), n the number of electrons transferred, F the faraday and E0 the normal symbol for the potential of the system at pH 0; for biological systems E0' is often used (in which pH = 7).

Compare: Nernst's equation.

Synonym: redox potential.


tubuloracemose (medicine)


tubuloracemose


Denoting a gland of combined tubular and racemose structure.
