UI	MeSH Term	Description	Entries
D007093	Imidazoles	Compounds containing 1,3-diazole, a five membered aromatic ring containing two nitrogen atoms separated by one of the carbons. Chemically reduced ones include IMIDAZOLINES and IMIDAZOLIDINES. Distinguish from 1,2-diazole (PYRAZOLES).
D007654	Ketoconazole	Broad spectrum antifungal agent used for long periods at high doses, especially in immunosuppressed patients.	Nizoral,R-41400,R41,400,R41400,R 41400
D008567	Membranes, Artificial	Artificially produced membranes, such as semipermeable membranes used in artificial kidney dialysis (RENAL DIALYSIS), monomolecular and bimolecular membranes used as models to simulate biological CELL MEMBRANES. These membranes are also used in the process of GUIDED TISSUE REGENERATION.	Artificial Membranes,Artificial Membrane,Membrane, Artificial
D008825	Miconazole	An imidazole antifungal agent that is used topically and by intravenous infusion.	Brentan,Dactarin,Miconasil Nitrate,Miconazole Nitrate,Monistat,R-14,889,Nitrate, Miconasil,Nitrate, Miconazole,R 14,889,R14,889

D010743	Phospholipids	Lipids containing one or more phosphate groups, particularly those derived from either glycerol (phosphoglycerides see GLYCEROPHOSPHOLIPIDS) or sphingosine (SPHINGOLIPIDS). They are polar lipids that are of great importance for the structure and function of cell membranes and are the most abundant of membrane lipids, although not stored in large amounts in the system.	Phosphatides,Phospholipid
D010879	Piperazines	Compounds that are derived from PIPERAZINE.
D002784	Cholesterol	The principal sterol of all higher animals, distributed in body tissues, especially the brain and spinal cord, and in animal fats and oils.	Epicholesterol
D004875	Ergosterol	A steroid occurring in FUNGI. Irradiation with ULTRAVIOLET RAYS results in formation of ERGOCALCIFEROL (vitamin D2).	Lumisterol,Pro-Vitamin D2,Provitamin D 2,D2, Pro-Vitamin,Pro Vitamin D2
D005437	Flucytosine	A fluorinated cytosine analog that is used as an antifungal agent.	5-Fluorocytosine,Alcobon,Ancobon,Ancotil
