(R)-Carteolol is an enantiomer of the drug carteolol that is used to treat glaucoma. (R)-Carteolol is a partial agonist with the high affinity to the beta-adrenoceptors. It was shown, that in the treatment of glaucoma, the therapeutic advantage of the R(+)-isomers is similar to the S(-)-isomers and there is no stereoselectivity between the two enantiomers.

(S)-Carteolol is an enantiomer of the racemic drug carteolol, that is used to treat glaucoma. (S) isomer is a partial agonist with the high affinity to the beta-adrenoceptors. It was shown, that in the treatment of glaucoma, the therapeutic advantage of the R(+)-isomers is similar to the S(-)-isomers and there is no stereo-selectivity between the two enantiomers.

4-Methoxymethamphetamine (PMMA, para-Methoxymethamphetamine) is a stimulant and psychedelic drug closely related to the amphetamine-class serotonergic drug para-methoxyamphetamine (PMA). Little is known about the pharmacological properties, metabolism, and toxicity of 4-Methoxymethamphetamine. Because of its structural similarity to para-methoxyamphetamine, which has known toxicity in humans, it is thought to have considerable potential to cause harmful side effects or death in overdose. In the early 2010s, a number of deaths in users of the drug MDMA were linked to misrepresented tablets and capsules of 4-Methoxymethamphetamine. In 2010–2013, a cluster of 29 fatal poisonings related to the toxic designer drug 4-Methoxymethamphetamine was revealed in Norway. The toxicity of PMMA is regarded as substantially higher than for amphetamine, methamphetamine, and MDMA, as indicated by 131 fatal and 31 nonfatal poisonings associated with the abuse of 4-Methoxymethamphetamine worldwide. The toxicity of 4-Methoxymethamphetamine is positively correlated with the 4-Methoxymethamphetamine dose and the blood drug level, but the existing literature indicates that certain human subjects may have an increased risk of 4-Methoxymethamphetamine toxicity. 4-Methoxymethamphetamine, like PMA most likely acts as a selective serotonin releasing agent (SSRA) with weak effects on dopamine and norepinephrine transporters. However, relative to MDMA, it is considerably less effective as a serotonin releaser with properties more akin to a reuptake inhibitor in comparison. It evokes robust hyperthermia while producing only modest hyperactivity and serotonergic neurotoxicity, substantially lower than that caused by MDMA.

The DOTAP (N-[1-(2,3-Dioleoyloxy)propyl]-N,N,N-trimethylammonium methyl-sulfate) is a liposomal transfection reagent suitable for transient and stable transfection of mammalian cell lines with DNA (plasmids, bacmids) and modified nucleic acids (antisense oligonucleotides). Mixing DOTAP with DNA results in spontaneously formed stable complexes. These complexes can be added directly to the tissue culture medium. This method avoiding the cytotoxic effects commonly encountered with lipofection or others transfection methods. The recently published article described the ability of R-DOTAP stabilized microparticles (MP) to act as a carrier platform for antigens e.g. for cancer vaccination. It was investigated whether or not a combination of R-DOTAP and PLGA leads to a boosted adjuvant effect in dendritic cell maturation.

Phenylmercuric propionate is used as a paint preservative. In addition, it is used as a preservative in cosmetics. It was reported, that phenylmercuric propionate used to sterilize bed lines in a hospital laundry produced contact urticarial and asthma.

Melezitose is a nonreducing trisaccharide sugar that is produced by many plant sap-eating insects, including aphids such as Cinara pilicornis. Melezitose is beneficial to the insects, as it reduces the stress of osmosis by reducing their own water potential. The melezitose is part of the honeydew which acts as an attractant for ants and also as a food for bees. Melezitose fatty acid monoesters are potential surfactants, that may solubilize hydrophobic drugs for parenteral formulations.

(±)-3A,7A-di-epi-Perindopril is a mixture of two isomers (S, RR, SS) and (R, SS, RR) each of which is an isomer of the antihypertensive drug perindopril. The first of which has the same activity as the compound while the second one is almost inactive.

(1''R,3AR)-1'',3A-di-epi-Perindopril is an epimer (S, RS, SR) of the drug perindopril which is commonly used to treat high blood pressure, hypertension, heart failure, or stable coronary artery disease. This form of the drug is much less active than the parent compound, perindopril.

(2R,2'R)-2,2'-di-epi-Perindopril is an epimer (R, SS, RS,) of the drug perindopril which is commonly used to treat high blood pressure, hypertension, heart failure, or stable coronary artery disease. This form of the drug is much less active.

(2R,7AR)-2,7A-di-epi-Perindopril is an epimer (R, SR, SS) of the drug perindopril which is commonly used to treat high blood pressure, hypertension, heart failure, or stable coronary artery disease. This form of the drug is much less active.
