The Arabic translation of the following web page destroys chemical
line formulas

Original web page:
http://www.scientificpsychic.com/fitness/fattyacids.html

Original Line Formulas (subscripts were lost during copy/paste
operation):
CH3CH2CH2COOH    or    CH3(CH2)2COOH

Arabic Translation (The copy/paste operation for this note reversed
some strings):
اتش 3 س 2 س 2 COOH أو الميثان 3 (اتش 2) 2 COOH

In general, chemical line formulas should not be translated.  The
context of subscripts, specific alphabetic symbols, and unusual
capitalization could be used as a clue to screen the string and
determine that it is a chemical formula that should not be translated.

Thanks.
