<p>Amphetamine is a psychostimulant and sympathomimetic that is used to treat attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder, narcolepsy, and obesity. Amphetamine is structurally similar to phenylethylamine, a naturally occurring trace amine found in humans. Amphetamine has been shown to bind with high affinity to tissues in the heart, lungs, stomach, and intestines. It also binds with moderate affinity to the liver. Amphetamine can be detected by analyses of chemical structures using diode-array detection or mass spectrometry. In addition, amphetamine can be detected in urine using liquid chromatography or gas chromatography/mass spectrometry. Amphetamines are addictive and have been shown to cause long-term damage in animal models of addiction. Cathinones are related compounds that have been found in human urine samples and have been shown to be toxicologically similar to amphetamines.</p>

<p>Fenicoberan is a bronchodilator that has been shown to be effective in the treatment of chronic bronchitis. Fenicoberan is also used as an antiarrhythmic and a medicinal preparation for treating gastritis, heart disease, and infarction. Fenicoberan has been shown to be an effective drug in the ligation of coronary artery thrombi, with normalization of heart function, and hepatoprotective properties. The active chemical component of fenicoberan is phenylephrine hydrochloride. It is a sympathomimetic amine that increases blood pressure by acting on alpha-adrenergic receptors in the vascular smooth muscle cells. Fenicoberan also induces phosphatidylcholine synthesis by activating phospholipase C (PLC) enzymes, which are involved in the hydrolysis of membrane phospholipids.</p>

<p>9-Oxo-9H-thioxanthene-3-carboxylic acid is an organic compound that is used in the treatment of wastewater. It is used to inhibit the growth of microorganisms present in wastewater and has been shown to be effective at inhibiting enzymes involved in energy metabolism and citric acid production. 9-Oxo-9H-thioxanthene-3-carboxylic acid also acts as a potent inhibitor of pyrazinoic acid production, which is a major cause of chronic coughs. This chemical also inhibits glomerular filtration rate in rats, which can lead to proteinuria. The chemical's effect on kidney function can be determined by preparing a sample for titration calorimetry.</p>

<p>Methyl 2-ethylacetoacetate (MEAA) is a reactive chemical that is used in the industrial process of dry extraction. MEAA is used as an antibacterial agent and has been shown to be effective against a number of bacteria, including Escherichia coli and Pseudomonas aeruginosa. MEAA binds to fatty acids, disrupting their structure and inhibiting bacterial growth. It also inhibits fatty acid synthesis in bacteria, which leads to cell death by disruption of membrane integrity. The carboxylate group on MEAA can act as a diluent for other more reactive chemicals, such as formaldehyde or glutaraldehyde.</p>
