Taurine :: Taurine (n.) A body occurring in small quantity in the juices of muscle, in the lungs, and elsewhere, but especially in the bile, where it is found as a component part of taurocholic acid, from which it can be prepared by decomposition of the acid. It crystallizes in colorless, regular six-sided prisms, and is especially characterized by containing both nitrogen and sulphur, being chemically amido-isethionic acid, C2H7NSO3..

Tyrosin :: Tyrosin (n.) A white crystalline nitrogenous substance present in small amount in the pancreas and spleen, and formed in large quantity from the decomposition of proteid matter by various means, -- as by pancreatic digestion, by putrefaction as of cheese, by the action of boiling acids, etc. Chemically, it consists of oxyphenol and amidopropionic acid, and by decomposition yields oxybenzoic acid, or some other benzol derivative..

Lacturamic :: Lacturamic (a.) Pertaining to, or designating, an organic amido acid, which is regarded as a derivative of lactic acid and urea..

Mesoxalic :: Mesoxalic (a.) Pertaining to, or designating, an acid, CH2O2(CO2H)2, obtained from amido malonic acid..

Xylidine :: Xylidine (n.) Any one of six metameric hydrocarbons, (CH3)2.C6H3.NH2, resembling aniline, and related to xylene. They are liquids, or easily fusible crystalline substances, of which three are derived from metaxylene, two from orthoxylene, and one from paraxylene. They are called the amido xylenes..

Hydrazine :: Hydrazine (n.) Any one of a series of nitrogenous bases, resembling the amines and produced by the reduction of certain nitroso and diazo compounds; as, methyl hydrazine, phenyl hydrazine, etc. They are derivatives of hydrazine proper, H2N.NH2, which is a doubled amido group, recently (1887) isolated as a stable, colorless gas, with a peculiar, irritating odor. As a base it forms distinct salts. Called also diamide, amidogen, (or more properly diamidogen), etc..

Monamine :: Monamine (n.) A basic compound containing one amido group; as, methyl amine is a monamine..

Naphthylamine :: Naphthylamine (n.) One of two basic amido derivatives of naphthalene, C10H7.NH2, forming crystalline solids..

Glycocoll :: Glycocoll (n.) A crystalline, nitrogenous substance, with a sweet taste, formed from hippuric acid by boiling with hydrochloric acid, and present in bile united with cholic acid. It is also formed from gelatin by decomposition with acids. Chemically, it is amido-acetic acid. Called also glycin, and glycocin..

Phloramine :: Phloramine (n.) A basic amido derivative of phloroglucin, having an astringent taste..

Triamine :: Triamine (n.) An amine containing three amido groups.

Amidogen :: Amidogen (n.) A compound radical, NH2, not yet obtained in a separate state, which may be regarded as ammonia from the molecule of which one of its hydrogen atoms has been removed; -- called also the amido group, and in composition represented by the form amido..

Triamide :: Triamide (n.) An amide containing three amido groups.

Sulphanilic :: Sulphamide (n.) Any one of a series of amido compounds obtained by treating sulphuryl chloride with various amines.

Diamide :: Diamide (n.) Any compound containing two amido groups united with one or more acid or negative radicals, -- as distinguished from a diamine. Cf. Amido acid, under Amido, and Acid amide, under Amide..

Diamido- :: Diamido- (a.) A prefix or combining form of Diamine. [Also used adjectively..
