A protein or albumin-like substance found in or related to vapor or steam, studied in early atmospheric chemistry.
Compound of atmid (vapor-related) + albumin (a type of protein found in blood and tissues). This is a historical scientific term from the 19th century when researchers sought to identify specific substances in water vapor.
Atmidalbumin is essentially a scientific ghost word—early chemists thought water vapor might contain special protein-like compounds, and they named them before realizing they were probably just misidentified water molecules!
