Summary Summary. Acute intermittent porphyria (AIP) is one of the liver (hepatic) porphyrias. AIP is caused by low levels of porphobilinogen deaminase (PBGD), an enzyme also often called hydroxymethylbilane synthase.
Pyridine-N-oxide is the heterocyclic compound with the formula C 5 H 5 NO. This colourless, hygroscopic solid is the product of the oxidation of pyridine. It was originally prepared using peracids as the oxidising agent. The molecule is planar.yridine-N-oxide is the heterocyclic compound with the formula C 5 H 5 NO.

Olivine, the principal component of peridotite, makes up more than 40% of the pair olivine + pyroxene (or amphibole). A rock type with less olivine is named pyroxenite (or hornblendite if there are more amphiboles than pyroxenes). Peridotite is a plutonic rock, it is mostly composed of visible mineral grains.
