Description

Metrizamide (Amipaque) is used as the contrast medium for angiography in neuroradiological investigations[1]. Metrizamide inhibits human brain hexokinase[2].

In Vitro

Metrizamide is a contrast medium possessing unique properties, one of which is that even in an isotonic solution it has a radiographic density sufficient for a diagnostic myelogram[3].

MedChemExpress (MCE) has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.

Help & FAQs
  • Do most proteins show cross-species activity?

    Species cross-reactivity must be investigated individually for each product. Many human cytokines will produce a nice response in mouse cell lines, and many mouse proteins will show activity on human cells. Other proteins may have a lower specific activity when used in the opposite species.
