Isobutyric acid, also known as 2-methylpropanoic acid, is a branched-chain carboxylic acid with the formula (CH3)2CHCOOH. It is a colorless liquid with a pungent odor. Isobutyric acid is found naturally in various sources, including milk, cheese, and human sweat. It is also produced industrially through the oxidation of isobutyl alcohol. Isobutyric acid is used as a flavoring agent in food and beverages, as well as in the production of pharmaceuticals and other chemicals. It is also used as a solvent and a plasticizer. Isobutyric acid is a common component of human sweat, and its production is increased during physical activity. It is also a component of the scent of some animals, such as the skunk. Isobutyric acid is a relatively weak acid, with a pKa of 4.82. It is soluble in water and ethanol, but not in ether. Isobutyric acid is studied for its potential applications in various fields, including medicine, agriculture, and food science.'

| Epilepsy A disorder characterized by recurrent episodes of paroxysmal brain dysfunction due to a sudden, disorderly, and excessive neuronal discharge. Epilepsy classification systems are generally based upon: (1) clinical features of the seizure episodes (e.g., motor seizure), (2) etiology (e.g., post-traumatic), (3) anatomic site of seizure origin (e.g., frontal lobe seizure), (4) tendency to spread to other structures in the brain, and (5) temporal patterns (e.g., nocturnal epilepsy).

| Caries, Dental [description not available] | 0 | 2.38 | 2 | 0 |
| Dental Caries Localized destruction of the tooth surface initiated by decalcification of the enamel followed by enzymatic lysis of organic structures and leading to cavity formation. If left unchecked, the cavity may penetrate the enamel and dentin and reach the pulp. | 0 | 2.38 | 2 | 0 |

| Folic Acid Deficiency A nutritional condition produced by a deficiency of FOLIC ACID in the diet. Many plant and animal tissues contain folic acid, abundant in green leafy vegetables, yeast, liver, and mushrooms but destroyed by long-term cooking. Alcohol interferes with its intermediate metabolism and absorption. Folic acid deficiency may develop in long-term anticonvulsant therapy or with use of oral contraceptives. This deficiency causes anemia, macrocytic anemia, and megaloblastic anemia. It is indistinguishable from vitamin B 12 deficiency in peripheral blood and bone marrow findings, but the neurologic lesions seen in B 12 deficiency do not occur.

| Vitamin B 12 Deficiency A nutritional condition produced by a deficiency of VITAMIN B 12 in the diet, characterized by megaloblastic anemia. Since vitamin B 12 is not present in plants, humans have obtained their supply from animal products, from multivitamin supplements in the form of pills, and as additives to food preparations. A wide variety of neuropsychiatric abnormalities is also seen in vitamin B 12 deficiency and appears to be due to an undefined defect involving myelin synthesis.
