Bilirubin (bililat. Bilis - bile + German. Rubin, from Latin. Ruber - red) is a yellow-red bile pigment, which is a product of enzymatic reduction of biliverdin in the liver and other organs.
Allocate:
Indirect bilirubin (synonym: free bilirubin) - poorly soluble in water, adsorbed on blood plasma proteins and giving only after additional processing a reaction with Ehrlich's diazo-reactive; an increase in the content of this pigment in blood plasma is noted with an increase in the formation of bilirubin, for example, with hemolytic (adrenal) jaundice;
Direct bilirubin (synonyms: bilirubing glucuronide, bound bilirubin) - is a product of bilirubin esterification with glucuronic acid molecules (one or two), acquires a red color, directly interacting with Ehrlich's diazo-reagent; in blood plasma is found in violation of the excretion of bilirubin from the liver, for example, with obstructive jaundice.

Nitrogen (Nitrogenium; N; Greek a - negative part + zoe - life) is a chemical element of group V of the periodic system of D. I. Mendeleev with an atomic mass (weight) of 14.007; atomic number - 7. In living organisms, nitrogen is part of proteins and their derivatives. In molecular form (N2), it is a gas that makes up 78% of the volume of the earth's atmosphere
Azotemia (azotaeimia; Greek a- - negative part + zoe - life + Greek haima - blood; synonym: hyperazotemia) - excess content of nitrogen-containing protein metabolism products in the blood
