| Roles Classification |
|---|
| Biological Roles: | disinfectant An antimicrobial agent that is applied to non-living objects to destroy harmful microorganisms or to inhibit their activity. EC 1.1.1.25 (shikimate dehydrogenase) inhibitor An EC 1.1.1.* (oxidoreductase acting on donor CH-OH group, NAD+ or NADP+ acceptor) inhibitor that interferes with the action of shikimate dehydrogenase (EC 1.1.1.25). plant metabolite Any eukaryotic metabolite produced during a metabolic reaction in plants, the kingdom that include flowering plants, conifers and other gymnosperms. |
| Application: | expectorant Compounds that are considered to increase the volume of secretions in the respiratory tract, so facilitating their removal by ciliary action and coughing. Compare with mucolytics, which decrease the viscosity of mucus, facilitating its removal by ciliary action and expectoration, and antitussives, which suppress the cough reflex. |
