  Logical conjunction Summary
In logic and mathematics, logical conjunction (usual symbol and) is a two-place logical operation that results in a value of true if both of its operands are true, otherwise a value of false.
The analogue of conjunction for a (possibly infinite) family of statements is universal quantification, which is part of predicate logic.
Conjunction elimination is another classically valid, simple argument form.

 Logical calculus - Wikipedia
These rules are introduction and elimination rules for each logical operator, used for deriving argument forms.
Introducing an hypothesis means adding a wff to a derivation not originally present as a premise; discharging the hypothesis means eliminating the wff justifiably--any wffs correctly derived from the hypothesis justify the introduction of the hypothesis after the fact.
With wffs and rules of inference, it's possible to derive wffs; the derivation is a valid argument form, while the derived wff is known as a lemma.

 Propylene Glycol excerpted from NTP-CERHR expert panel on the reproductive and developmental toxicity of propylene ...
Studies of the pharmacokinetics of propylene glycol in humans have been conducted primarily in conjunction with on-going patient therapy where propylene glycol was administered as a vehicle for medications.
In mammals, part of the propylene glycol dose is eliminated unchanged by the kidney and part is metabolized by the liver to lactic acid and further metabolized to pyruvic acid; in mammals, with the exception of cats, the remainder is conjugated with glucuronic acid (2) and eliminated in the urine.
Recovery of 12–45% of the unchanged administered dose in the urine led the authors to conclude that the compound was eliminated by the kidney and a large portion of unexcreted chemical was metabolized.

By this, they mean that if a normal cognitive agent that can perform one instance of a type of logical inference, then, ceteris paribus, that agent can perform other instances of that same type of inference.
Thus, any normal cognitive agent that can perform one instance of conjunction elimination (modus ponens, modus tollens, disjunctive syllogism) can, ceteris paribus, perform another instance of conjunction elimination (modus ponens, modus tollens, disjunctive syllogism).
Thus, all conjunctions may be supposed to have some common syntactic and semantic structure, e.g., the occurrence of a main conjunction symbol.

 Optional, Break, Exercise
When you are using natural deduction, it is usually good strategy to try to get things by the introduction rule for their main connective, but disjunctions (and existential quantifications) are, more often than other kinds of formula, obtainable only by "indirect proof": witness the disjunction (P or Not-P).
Double Negation Elimination isn't on, but Double Negation Introduction is: P implies Not-Not-P. But at least that's as bad as it gets: you don't have to worry about distinguishing septuple negations from octuple and such nonsense: Triple Negation reduces to Single!
Conjunctions (disjunctions, conditionals, existential quantifications) of doubly negated constituents imply the corresponding doubly negated conjunctions (disjunctions, conditionals, existential quantifications) of the (un-negated) constituents: a pair of negation signs immediately governed by one of these operators can be "pulled out in front": (Not-Not-L & Not-Not-R) implies Not-Not-(L & R), and likewise for the others.

 Inference Rules of Natural Deduction
Conjunction (Conj): From p and q to infer p.q This rule will be familiar by now, because it is implicit in the logical operation of joining two true atomic statements and writing them as a compound statement, linked by the "and-sign".
But this rule as stated (from p and q to infer p) seems to permit only the left conjunct to be inferred.
So from p.q, we can also infer q, which is the right conjunct.
