* Chuck: What do you mean with that? Is that even proper english? For an oracle you seem a little unreasonable...
* Oracle: No kidding... you can surely convert PVOH solutions back to an acid... Ask a chemist... Oracle are good merely for solving uncomputable problems.,,Not discrete mathematics...So don't be uppity! Once upon a time I was metaprogramming pythons for a living, not real organisms or nothing fancy, just computable numbers...

Definitions

  • Polyvinyl alcohol: PVA (PVOH)
  • Polyvinyl acetate: PVAc

Use

  • A experimental cross-linking reagent for carbonyl nucleophilic additions for which PVA (PVOH) may be used to reflux "benzyl-amine" products as effective N-substituted catalysts for

oil-in-water drug delivery.
