Anatomical context of NSC50359

  • 5-Nitroimidazole derivative in the concentration of 300 micrograms/mg protein inhibited significantly the non-irradiated erythrocyte membrane (Na+, K+) ATP-ase activity, while 4-NO2 in the concentration of 3 micrograms/mg protein influenced this activity, but only after an exposure at dose of 60 Krad [18].
  • Metronidazole, a 5-nitroimidazole drug has been reported to decrease testicular weight, testicular and epididymal spermatid counts and causes abnormal sperm morphology with degeneration of seminiferous tubules with 6 weeks treatment of metronidazole (400 mg/kg, day) [19].
 

Associations of NSC50359 with other chemical compounds

 

Gene context of NSC50359

  • Identification and DNA sequence of the mobilization region of the 5-nitroimidazole resistance plasmid pIP421 from Bacteroides fragilis [25].
  • Comparative efficacy of metronidazole and another 5-nitroimidazole, CG-10213-Go, in caecal amoebiasis in albino mice (Mus musculus) [26].
  • 5-Nitroimidazole resistance assessed by the disc diffusion technique is not helpful in predicting OCT failure, but the E-test may be of value [27].
  • We aimed to evaluate this using the disc diffusion technique (Mast Diagnostics, Bootle, UK) and E-test (Cambridge Diagnostics Services, Cambridge, UK) to assess 5-nitroimidazole resistance [27].
  • The multiwavelength method may be used for samples degraded at pH 6-12 if the amount of conserved 5-nitroimidazole species is at least 93 mol.% of the original; the amounts of tinidazole and its two known impurities may be determined simultaneously [28].
