Methacrylic acid was first obtained in the form of its ethyl ester by treating phosphorus pentachloride with oxyisobutyric ester ( A synonym for beta-hydroxy-butyric acid or 3-hydroxybutyric acid ).
22.
Additionally, the Act recommended that the United States Sentencing Commission reconsider the then-current Federal sentencing guidelines with respect to offenses involving Gamma-Hydroxybutyric acid, commonly known as a date rape drug.
23.
"' 3-Hydroxyisobutyric acid "'( or "'3-hydroxy-2-methylpropanoic acid "') is an intermediate in the metabolism of valine . It is a chiral compound having two enantiomers, D-3-hydroxybutyric acid and L-3-hydroxybutyric acid.

25.
However, the active metabolite of sodium oxybate, gamma-hydroxybutyric acid, is known to produce its therapeutic effects by acting as an agonist at the GABA B receptor complex and the GHB receptor.
26.
Gamma Hydroxybutyric Acid ( GHB ), sometimes called Liquid X or G, was first used by bodybuilders for its ability to stimulate growth hormones, but clubgoers began using it for induced euphoria.
27.
The three ketone compounds appear in different proportions in the urine, although these proportions are relatively constant in different samples as both the acetone and the beta-hydroxybutyric acid are produced from the acetoacetic acid.
28.
If signed into law, the bill would put gamma hydroxybutyric acid _ an orderless drug that can be made at home _ in the same category as hard drugs, such as cocaine and heroin.
29.
Also recovered in the operation were synthetic materials, various drug paraphernalia and a manual on making illegal drugs such as methamphetamine hydrochloride or shabu, D-lysergic acid diethylamide and gamma-Hydroxybutyric acid ( GHB ) or liquid ecstacy.
30.
However, because of the deficiency, the final intermediate of the GABA degradation pathway, succinic semialdehyde, accumulates and cannot be oxidized to succinic acid and is therefore reduced to gamma-hydroxybutyric acid ( GHB ) by gamma-hydroxybutyric dehydrogenase.
