2,4-dinitrophenol has been researched along with Drug Overdose in 6 studies

2,4-Dinitrophenol: A toxic dye, chemically related to trinitrophenol (picric acid), used in biochemical studies of oxidative processes where it uncouples oxidative phosphorylation. It is also used as a metabolic stimulant. (Stedman, 26th ed)
dinitrophenol : Members of the class of nitrophenol carrying two nitro substituents.
2,4-dinitrophenol : A dinitrophenol having the nitro groups at the 2- and 4-positions.
