French term

AcSDKP-NH2 base

French to English Law/Patents Chemistry; Chem Sci/Eng Clinical trial
There is a tiny amount of quite technical language in a legal document I am translating:

"Le marché, a pour objet la fourniture 9000 flacons contenant 100µg d'AcSDKP-NH2 base, nécessaire à la réalisation de l’essai clinique dénommé..."

I can't give the full title of the proposed clinical trial for obvious reasons, but elsewhere in the document it refers to this same substance as "un analogue amidé du tetrapeptide AcSDKP" and "tetrapeptide amidé AcSDKP-NH2 sous forme de sel d’acétate". I have had no difficulty translating these other terms, it's really just the significance of 'base' that I'm unsure of.

Bashiqa May 7, 2009:
Base It is more likely the basic substance of the product and other chemicals will be added.
K. Ganly (X) May 7, 2009:
same (AcSDKP-NH2 base) I think it could just be the same as NH2 is a base (as opposed to an acid)

Acétyl-Ser-Asp-Lys-Pro(Ac-SDKP)-NH2 base

Ceci n'est pas une base par opposition à un acide (une base aurait des ions OH- à libérer).
Le mot "base" ici est utilisé pour parler du produit pharmacologique essentiel avant qu'il ne soit mis sous une forme propre à l'administration.
