Ammonium chloride Explanation: If you haven't found this yet... SAOB has your terms as: "om salmiak använd i lösning (ss. slemlösande medel) mot andnöd (i samband med lungsäcks- l. lunginflammation o. d.) l. ss. luktsalt vid svimning o. d" Since this identifies 'luktsalt' as a Swedish term that corresponds to 'smelling salts,' I'm suggesting the technical term for salmiak. SAOB also has an entry or 'eau-de-luce' so I wonder why your sentence didn't use that Swedish term -- suggesting you want something more technical. Salmiac is used in Eng, but seems to be used in food contexts, as Wikipedia offers in a primer for us poor translators. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ammonium_chloride#Medicine |
