CDCl3 is a common solvent used for NMR analysis. It is used because most compounds will dissolve in it, it is volatile and therefore easy to get rid of, and it is non-reactive and will not exchange its deuterium with protons in the molecule being studied.
CD4 â A type of protein molecule in human blood that is present on the surface of 65% of human T cells. CD4 is a receptor for the HIV virus. When the HIV virus infects cells with CD4 surface proteins, it depletes the number of T cells, B cells, natural killer cells, and monocytes in the patient's blood. Most of the damage to an AIDS patient's immune system is done by the virus' destruction of CD4+ lymphocytes.
