Epinephrine

Epinephrine (also referred to as adrenaline; see Terminology) is a hormone and neurotransmitter. It is a catecholamine, a sympathomimetic monoamine derived from the amino acids phenylalanine and tyrosine. The Latin roots ad-+renes and the Greek roots epi-+nephros both literally mean "on/to the kidney" (referring to the adrenal gland, which sits atop the kidneys and secretes epinephrine). Epinephrine is often shortened to epi or to EP in American medical jargon.

Isomaltulose

Isomaltulose (chemical name: 6-0-α-D-glucopyranosyl-D-fructose), also known by the trade names Palatinose and NRGylose or Xtend(tm) Isomaltulose, is a disaccharide that is commercially produced enzymatically from sucrose. It is a natural constituent of honey and sugar cane and has a very natural sweet taste. It has been used as a sugar in Japan since 1985. It is particularly suitable as a non-cariogenic sucrose replacement and is favorable in products for diabetics and prediabetic dispositions.

Benzil

Benzil is the organic compound with the formula (C6H5CO)2, generally abbreviated (PhCO)2. This diketone is used as an intermediate in organic synthesis. Benzil is also employed as a photoinitiator for free-radical curing of polymer networks. Ultraviolet radiation decomposes benzil, creating free-radical species which propagate throughout polymer material, creating cross-links between individual polymer chains. Recently benzil has been identified as a selective inhibitor of carboxylesterase enzymes, proteins involved in the metabolism of esterified drugs and xenobiotics.
