anello furanico

Italian to English Medical Medical (general) toxicological research
Inoltre dalla nostra ricerca e` risultato che i nitrofuranici esaminati non inducono "Il cuore a palla" nei tachini. Non e` quindi l'anello furanico che causa tale liocardiopatia almeno nelle condizoni attuate nel presente esperimento.

I think furanico is "Furanic' from Furanic compound. The "anello" could be ring but I'm not certain. Thanks!

We studied the mechanism of metabolic cleavage of a furan ring, using a new hypolipidemic agent, ethyl 2-(4-chlorophenyl)-5-(2-furyl)oxazole-4-acetate (TA-1801), as a model compound. A TA-1801 analogue labeled with deuterium at the 5-position of its furan ring was administered orally to rats.
