Laboratory Values

Peptidases are enzymes that catalytically break down peptide bonds of peptides and proteins through hydrolysis, i.e. through the addition of an H2O molecule.

Endorphins are opioid peptides synthesized by the body itself, which have an impact on pain and hunger sensations and can very likely also trigger euphoria. What is certain is that endorphins can be used in painful emergency situations and

Vitamin C, also known as ascorbic acid, is one of the most important and important vitamins of all. This cannot be produced by the body itself, so it must be taken in with food.

Acetates are chemical substances that are often used in the text industry and pharmacy. The acetic acid salts occur in various forms, including as metabolic products in the human body. Along with esters, derivatives of carbons

Adenine is a heterobicyclic aromatic compound with a purine backbone, which as an organic nucleus base, together with three other bases, forms one of the basic building blocks of genetic information in DNA and RNA.

Sulfur is an inorganic chemical element that is in a solid state at room temperature. Elemental sulfur is yellow and as a molecule it is contained in numerous compounds. Sulfur is also used in medicine for chronic therapy

Vitamin B2 is a vitamin of the vitamin B complex group. Vitamin B2, formerly known as vitamin G, is also known as riboflavin or lactoflavin. Vitamin B2 is popularly known as the "growth vitamin".

Vitamin B5 is also known under the name pantothenic acid and takes on essential functions in the body and is involved in the conversion into coenzyme A, which is considered the active form of vitamin B5.

Adenosine monophosphate is a nucleotide that can represent part of the energy carrier adenosine triphosphate (ATP). As a cyclic adenosine monophosphate, it also functions as a second messenger. It arises, among other things, during the split

Vitamin B6 is called pyridoxine and is water-soluble. Vitamin B6, with its components pyridoxol, pyridoxal and pyridoxamine, takes on its role as a starting substance in the metabolism, especially for the formation of coenzymes.

Palmitic acid is the most common fatty acid, along with stearic acid. It plays an important role in both plant and animal and human organisms. Most of the palmitic acid is bound in triglycerides.

Adenosine diphosphate (ADP) is a mononucleotide with the purine base adenine and plays a central role in all metabolic processes. Together with adenosine triphosphate (ATP) it is responsible for the energy turnover in the organism. Most of the glitches

Along with palmitic acid, stearic acid is a main component of fats and oils. It is an unsaturated fatty acid with 18 carbon atoms whose main function is to store energy. Because it can be synthesized in the organism

Trigonelline is a natural chemical substance found in coffee beans, among other things. Trigonelline is a raw material for the synthesis of nicotinic acid or vitamin B3 in the body. Nicotinic acid comes in several coenzymes

Adenosine triphosphate or ATP is the most energy-rich molecule in the organism and is responsible for all energy-transferring processes. It is a mononucleotide of the purine base adenine and is therefore also a component of nucleic acids

Silicon is a chemical element. It has the atomic number 14 and the symbol Si. For humans, silicon is particularly important in its bound and silicate form.

Adenylyl cyclases belong to the lyases as an enzyme class. Their task is to catalyze the cyclic cAMP by cleaving P-O bonds from ATP. In this way they trigger a signal cascade that is responsible for many different processes in the organism

Adiponectin, a hormone formed in adipose tissue in humans and animals, only has a beneficial effect on health if it is present in normal concentrations in the blood level. An increased value in the blood level can be found especially in humans

Choline is a widespread and indispensable biological agent. Many metabolic processes only take place with the help of choline. Choline deficiency therefore leads to a variety of health problems.

Omega 3 fatty acids belong to the group of unsaturated fatty acids. They are vital and very healthy for humans, as they can prevent various diseases. In the past, omega 3 fatty acids were also known as vitamin F. Especially
