• bilirubin
  4 May 2004

  Bilirubin is the normal major pigment found in bile. It is derived from hemoglobin but contains no iron. Its normal formation and excretion are vital to health, and jaundice is a common clinical disorder caused by excesses of this pigment within cells and tissues. Bilirubin is a potent antioxidant but can be toxic at high concentrations.

• glucose
  2 June 2004

  Definition: The glucose (Glc) is a monosaccharide (or simple sugar) also known as grape sugar, blood sugar, or corn sugar. The name "glucose" comes from the Greek word glukus (γλυκύς), meaning "sweet", and the suffix "-ose," which denotes a sugar.
  The living cell uses it as a source of energy and metabolic intermediate.
  Glucose is one of the main products of photosynthesis and starts cellular respiration in both prokaryotes (bacteria and archaea) and eukaryotes (animals, plants, fungi, and (...)

• methionine
  15 October 2003

  Definition: Methionine (abbreviated as Met or M) is an essential α-amino acid with the chemical formula HO2CCH(NH2)CH2CH2SCH3. This essential amino acid is classified as nonpolar. Together with cysteine, methionine is one of two sulfur-containing proteinogenic amino acids.
  Biosynthesis
  As an essential amino acid, methionine is not synthesized in humans, hence we must ingest methionine or methionine-containing proteins.
  In plants and microorganisms, methionine is synthesized via a pathway (...)
