  2. Beta-2 adrenergic receptor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Beta-2_adrenergic_receptor

    The beta-2 adrenergic receptor (β 2 adrenoreceptor), also known as ADRB2, is a cell membrane-spanning beta-adrenergic receptor that binds epinephrine (adrenaline), a hormone and neurotransmitter whose signaling, via adenylate cyclase stimulation through trimeric G s proteins, increases cAMP, and, via downstream L-type calcium channel interaction, mediates physiologic responses such as smooth ...

  3. Allotropes of phosphorus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Allotropes_of_phosphorus

    P 4 + 5 O 2 → P 4 O 10. Because of this property, white phosphorus is used as a weapon. Phosphorus pentachloride is prepared by the reaction of white phosphorus with excess of dry chlorine. P 4 + 10Cl 2 → 4PCl 5. It can also be prepared by the action of sulfuryl chloride on white phosphorus. P 4 + 10SO 2 Cl 2 → 4PCl 5 + 10SO 2 Non ...

  4. Tritium radioluminescence - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tritium_radioluminescence

    Tritium radioluminescence is the use of gaseous tritium, a radioactive isotope of hydrogen, to create visible light. Tritium emits electrons through beta decay and, when they interact with a phosphor material, light is emitted through the process of phosphorescence. The overall process of using a radioactive material to excite a phosphor and ...

  5. Beta2-adrenergic agonist - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Beta2-adrenergic_agonist

    2. -adrenergic agonist. Beta2-adrenergic agonists, also known as adrenergic β2 receptor agonists, are a class of drugs that act on the β 2 adrenergic receptor. Like other β adrenergic agonists, they cause smooth muscle relaxation. β 2 adrenergic agonists' effects on smooth muscle cause dilation of bronchial passages, vasodilation in muscle ...

  6. Isotopes of phosphorus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Isotopes_of_phosphorus

    Although phosphorus ( 15 P) has 22 isotopes from 26 P to 47 P, only 31 P is stable; as such, phosphorus is considered a monoisotopic element. The longest-lived radioactive isotopes are 33 P with a half-life of 25.34 days and 32 P with a half-life of 14.268 days. [3] [4] All others have half-lives of under 2.5 minutes, most under a second.

  7. Phosphor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phosphor

    Phosphor thermometry. Phosphor thermometry is a temperature measurement approach that uses the temperature dependence of certain phosphors. For this, a phosphor coating is applied to a surface of interest and, usually, the decay time is the emission parameter that indicates temperature.

  8. Phosphorus-32 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phosphorus-32

    Phosphorus-32. Phosphorus-32 ( 32 P) is a radioactive isotope of phosphorus. The nucleus of phosphorus-32 contains 15 protons and 17 neutrons, one more neutron than the most common isotope of phosphorus, phosphorus-31. Phosphorus-32 only exists in small quantities on Earth as it has a short half-life of 14 days and so decays rapidly.

  9. Oxidative phosphorylation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oxidative_phosphorylation

    Oxidative phosphorylation is made up of two closely connected components: the electron transport chain and chemiosmosis. The electron transport chain in the cell is the site of oxidative phosphorylation. The NADH and succinate generated in the citric acid cycle are oxidized, releasing the energy of O 2 to power the ATP synthase.
