|
Sodium Azide
|
D019810 |
[A cytochrome oxidase inhibitor which is a nitridizing agent and an inhibitor of terminal oxidation. (From Merck Index, 12th ed)

Sodium Benzoate
|
D020160 |
[The sodium salt of BENZOIC ACID. It is used as an antifungal preservative in pharmaceutical preparations and foods. It may also be used as a test for liver function.

|
Sodium Bicarbonate
|
D017693 |

Sodium Channel Agonists
|
D062687 |
[A class of drugs that stimulate sodium influx through cell membrane channels.
] |
|
Sodium Channel Blockers
|
D026941 |
[A class of drugs that act by inhibition of sodium influx through cell membranes. Blockade of sodium channels slows the rate and amplitude of initial rapid depolarization, reduces cell excitability, and reduces conduction velocity.

|
Sodium Channels
|
D015222 |
[Ion channels that specifically allow the passage of SODIUM ions. A variety of specific sodium channel subtypes are involved in serving specialized functions such as neuronal signaling, CARDIAC MUSCLE contraction, and KIDNEY function.

Sodium Chloride
|
D012965 |
[A ubiquitous sodium salt that is commonly used to season food.

|
Sodium Chloride Symporter Inhibitors
|
D049993 |
[Agents that inhibit SODIUM CHLORIDE SYMPORTERS. They act as DIURETICS. Excess use is associated with HYPOKALEMIA.
, Diuretics characterized as analogs of 1,2,4-benzothiadiazine-1,1-dioxide. All have a common mechanism of action and differ primarily in the dose required to produce a given effect. They act directly on the kidney to increase the excretion of sodium chloride and water and also increase excretion of potassium ions.

|
Sodium Chloride Symporters
|
D049992 |
[A subclass of symporters found in KIDNEY TUBULES, DISTAL that are the major pathway for salt resorption. Inhibition of these symporters by BENZOTHIADIAZINES is the basis of action of some DIURETICS.

|
Sodium Chloride, Dietary
|
D017673 |
[Sodium chloride used in foods.

|
Sodium Cholate
|
D020358 |
[A trihydroxy bile salt that is used as a digestive aid in dietary supplements. It is used in culture media and in conjunction with PAPAIN and PANCREATIN.
] |
|
Sodium Citrate
|
D000077559 |
[Sodium salts of citric acid that are used as buffers and food preservatives. They are used medically as anticoagulants in stored blood, and for urine alkalization in the prevention of KIDNEY STONES.

|
Sodium Compounds
|
D017670 |
[Inorganic compounds that contain sodium as an integral part of the molecule.
] |
|
Sodium Cyanide
|
D012966 |
[A highly poisonous compound that is an inhibitor of many metabolic processes and is used as a test reagent for the function of chemoreceptors. It is also used in many industrial processes.
] |
|
Sodium Dodecyl Sulfate
|
D012967 |
[An anionic surfactant, usually a mixture of sodium alkyl sulfates, mainly the lauryl; lowers surface tension of aqueous solutions; used as fat emulsifier, wetting agent, detergent in cosmetics, pharmaceuticals and toothpastes; also as research tool in protein biochemistry.
