- Acid [r]: A chemical that accepts electron pairs, but sometimes defined at proton (H+) or hydronium (H3O)+ ion donors. [e]
- Adenoviridae [r]: Family of double-stranded DNA viruses with icosahedral symmetry, usually found in the respiratory tract of the host species and often associated with respiratory diseases. [e]
- Affinity chromatography [r]: Method to filter a specific molecule out of a solution. [e]
- Atmosphere [r]: The layers of gas surrounding stars and planets. [e]
- Cell (biology) [r]: The basic unit of life, consisting of biochemical networks enclosed by a membrane. [e]
- Cheese [r]: Dairy product made from milk curd and widely eaten in the Western Hemisphere and Europe. [e]
- Circulatory system [r]: Organ system that passes nutrients, gases, hormones, blood cells, nitrogen waste products, etc. to and from cells in the body. [e]
- Condensate polishing [r]: An ion exchange process used to purify the steam condensate produced in high-pressure steam generation facilities such as those in large thermal power plants. [e]
- Conventional coal-fired power plant [r]: An industrial plant which produces electricity by burning coal in a steam generator that heats water to produce high pressure steam. The steam flows through a series of steam turbines which spin an electrical generator to produce electricity. [e]
- Decontamination [r]: The efforts to safeguard property and people that have been exposed to chemical, nuclear, or biological agents. [e]
- Environmental chemistry [r]: The scientific study of the chemical and biochemical phenomena that occurs in natural places. [e]
- Enzyme [r]: A protein that catalyzes (i.e. accelerate) chemical reactions. [e]
- Flue gas desulfurization [r]: The technology for removing sulfur dioxide from the flue gases resulting from the combustion of coal or fuel oil in power plant steam generators or other large combustion sources. [e]
- Global warming [r]: The increase in the average temperature of the Earth's near-surface air and oceans in recent decades and its projected continuation. [e]
- Glucosamine [r]: Amino sugar component of chitin, heparan sulphate, chondroitin sulphate and many complex polysaccharides, used in treatment of osteoarthritis. [e]
- Gobioides broussonnetii [r]: Long, slender, eel-like, non aggressive fish. [e]
- Haber process [r]: A chemical process used to produce the useful substance ammonia from nitrogen and hydrogen. [e]
- Industrial cooling tower [r]: Heat rejection systems used primarily to provide circulating cooling water in large industrial facilities. [e]
- Ion-selective electrodes [r]: A transducer (sensor) which converts the activity of a specific ion dissolved in a solution into an electrical potential which can be measured by a voltmeter or pH meter. [e]
- Lactic fermentation [r]: A form of fermentation that occurs in animal cells in the absence of oxygen. [e]
- Logarithm [r]: Inverse of exponentiation, as subtraction is the inverse of addition and division is the inverse of multiplication. [e]
- Microbial metabolism [r]: The means by which a microbe obtains the energy and nutrients (e.g. carbon) it needs to live and propagate. [e]
- Molality [r]: Concentration unit, moles/kilogram, useful for measuring solvent properties. [e]
- Molarity [r]: Chemical term for concentrations of solutions, having units of moles/liter. [e]
- Ocean acidification [r]: Decrease of the pH of the oceans, presumably due to the increased intake of carbon dioxide from the atmosphere. [e]
- Organism [r]: An individual living individual: a complex, adaptive physical system that acts a integrated unit that sustains metabolism and reproduces progeny that resemble it. [e]
- Probiotics [r]: Live microbial dietary supplements which beneficially affect the host animal's intestinal microbial balance. [e]
- Pulse oximetry [r]: Non-invasive method allowing the monitoring of the oxygenation of a patient's haemoglobin. [e]
- Refineries [r]: Industrial manufacturing facilities composed of a group of chemical engineering unit processes and unit operations used for the conversion certain raw materials such as petroleum crude oil, mined ores, sugar or salt into finished products of value or for the refining and purification of partially converted raw materials into finished products. [e]
- Salmonella enterica [r]: Rod shaped, flagellated, aerobic, Gram-negative bacterium that causes food poisoning and gastroenteritis. [e]
- Toxicology [r]: Study of the nature, effects, and detection of poisons and the treatment of poisoning. [e]
- Vinegar [r]: A dilute form of acetic acid used in the kitchen and elsewhere. [e]
- Water [r]: A chemical compound with one oxygen and two hydrogen atoms (H20). It is often in a liquid form and makes up the bulk of the oceans, lakes, rivers and living organisms. [e]
