Carbohydrates
|
D002241 |
[A class of organic compounds composed of carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen in a ratio of Cn(H2O)n. The largest class of organic compounds, including STARCH; GLYCOGEN; CELLULOSE; POLYSACCHARIDES; and simple MONOSACCHARIDES.

Carbolines
|
D002243 |
[A group of pyrido-indole compounds. Included are any points of fusion of pyridine with the five-membered ring of indole and any derivatives of these compounds. These are similar to CARBAZOLES which are benzo-indoles.

Carbon
|
D002244 |
[A nonmetallic element with atomic symbol C, atomic number 6, and atomic weight [12.0096; 12.0116]. It may occur as several different allotropes including DIAMOND; CHARCOAL; and GRAPHITE; and as SOOT from incompletely burned fuel.

Carbon Compounds, Inorganic
|
D017554 |
[Inorganic compounds that contain carbon as an integral part of the molecule but are not derived from hydrocarbons.

Carbon Cycle
|
D057486 |
[The cycle by which the element carbon is exchanged between organic matter and the earth's physical environment.
] |
|
Carbon Dioxide
|
D002245 |
[A colorless, odorless gas that can be formed by the body and is necessary for the respiration cycle of plants and animals.
] |
|
Carbon Disulfide
|
D002246 |
[A colorless, flammable, poisonous liquid, CS2. It is used as a solvent, and is a counterirritant and has local anesthetic properties but is not used as such. It is highly toxic with pronounced CNS, hematologic, and dermatologic effects.

|
Carbon Fiber
|
D000077482 |
[Fiber with a diameter of approximately 5 to 10 micrometers that is composed mostly of carbon atoms. It has a variety of applications.

Carbon Footprint
|
D058572 |
[A measure of the total greenhouse gas emissions produced by an individual, organization, event, or product. It is measured in units of equivalent kilograms of CARBON DIOXIDE generated in a given time frame.
] |
|
Carbon Isotopes
|
D002247 |
[Stable carbon atoms that have the same atomic number as the element carbon, but differ in atomic weight. C-13 is a stable carbon isotope.
] |
|
Carbon Monoxide
|
D002248 |
[Carbon monoxide (CO). A poisonous colorless, odorless, tasteless gas. It combines with hemoglobin to form carboxyhemoglobin, which has no oxygen carrying capacity. The resultant oxygen deprivation causes headache, dizziness, decreased pulse and respiratory rates, unconsciousness, and death. (From Merck Index, 11th ed)

|
Carbon Monoxide Poisoning
|
D002249 |
[Toxic asphyxiation due to the displacement of oxygen from oxyhemoglobin by carbon monoxide.
] |
|
Carbon Radioisotopes
|
D002250 |
[Unstable isotopes of carbon that decay or disintegrate emitting radiation. C atoms with atomic weights 10, 11, and 14-16 are radioactive carbon isotopes.
] |
|
Carbon Sequestration
|
D057965 |
[Any of several processes for the permanent or long-term artificial or natural capture or removal and storage of carbon dioxide and other forms of carbon, through biological, chemical or physical processes, in a manner that prevents it from being released into the atmosphere.
] |
|
Carbon Tetrachloride
|
D002251 |
[A solvent for oils, fats, lacquers, varnishes, rubber waxes, and resins, and a starting material in the manufacturing of organic compounds. Poisoning by inhalation, ingestion or skin absorption is possible and may be fatal. (Merck Index, 11th ed)
] |
|
Carbon Tetrachloride Poisoning
|
D002252 |
[Poisoning that results from ingestion, injection, inhalation, or skin absorption of CARBON TETRACHLORIDE.

Carbon-Carbon Double Bond Isomerases
|
D019748 |
[Enzymes that catalyze the shifting of a carbon-carbon double bond from one position to another within the same molecule. EC 5.3.3.

Carbon-Carbon Ligases
|
D019735 |
[Enzymes that catalyze the joining of two molecules by the formation of a carbon-carbon bond. These are the carboxylating enzymes and are mostly biotinyl-proteins. EC 6.4.
