Bioactivity | Hydroxymetronidazole-d4 is the deuterium labeled Hydroxymetronidazole. Hydroxymetronidazole (Metronidazole-OH) is a metabolite of Metronidazole belonging to the class of nitroimidazoles. Hydroxymetronidazole can be used for the research of certain bacterial and protozoal diseases in poultry, swine dysentery and genital trichomoniasis in cattle[1]. |
Invitro | Stable heavy isotopes of hydrogen, carbon, and other elements have been incorporated into drug molecules, largely as tracers for quantitation during the drug development process. Deuteration has gained attention because of its potential to affect the pharmacokinetic and metabolic profiles of drugs[1]. |
