seco-stérol Explanation: seco/sec est une indication de structure, à mettre en italiques et sans accents (origine latine), tout comme par exemple neo ou tertio. Cela signifie que le noyau stérol a été ouvert. "During sun exposure, UVB light with energies between 290–315 nm is absorbed by cutaneous 7-dehydrocholesterol *to form the split (seco) sterol previtamin D3* and subsequently cholecalciferol (vitamin D3)." -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 9 hrs (2006-02-24 08:01:34 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Oups, désolé, pas d'italiques, je confonds avec sec-. La définition que j'ai donnée est cependant juste. "Le préfixe seco- indique la cassure d'un cycle avec addition d'un atome d'hydrogène de part et d'autre de la liaison rompue (nomenclature stéroïdes)." http://www.chemexper.com/misc/iupac/3/ Reference: http://www.medscape.com/druginfo/monograph?cid=med&drugid=91... |
