| Targets |
Ioxitalamic Acid does not have a classical drug target. As a contrast agent, its mechanism of action is based on its physical properties. It is an ionic iodinated contrast medium that contains iodine, which absorbs X-rays. When administered, it enhances the visibility of internal organs and tissues during imaging procedures such as X-rays, CT scans, and angiography.
|
|---|---|
| ln Vitro |
Ioxitalamic Acid is not typically used in pharmacological activity assays. Its activity is based on its physical properties as a contrast agent. Its ability to absorb X-rays is assessed in vitro and in vivo. Its effects on various physiological parameters are evaluated in preclinical and clinical studies.
|
| ln Vivo |
Ioxitalamic Acid is used as a contrast agent for CT scans of the abdomen and pelvis. It acts as a bowel opacifier which facilitates the interpretation of the anatomy and differentiation of bowel loops from soft tissue masses. It is also used in angiography and other imaging procedures.
|
| Enzyme Assay |
Ioxitalamic Acid does not have a typical enzyme/receptor binding assay. Its properties are evaluated based on its physical and chemical characteristics, such as osmolarity, viscosity, and iodine content. Its stability and compatibility with biological fluids are assessed in vitro. It is not used in standard pharmacological binding assays.
|
| Cell Assay |
Ioxitalamic Acid is not typically used in cell-based assays. Its effects are studied in the context of medical imaging, where its ability to enhance contrast is evaluated. Its effects on cells, such as endothelial cells or renal tubular cells, may be assessed in toxicological studies.
|
| Animal Protocol |
In vivo animal experiments for Ioxitalamic Acid involve administering the compound to animals to assess its imaging properties, pharmacokinetics, and safety. Its distribution, elimination, and effects on organ function are evaluated in these studies. Preclinical safety data has been generated in animal models.

| ADME/Pharmacokinetics |
Absorption, Distribution and Excretion
Iocitalazine is not absorbed in the gastrointestinal tract. In the presence of intestinal perforation, iocitalazine is completely absorbed. When administered intravenously, iocitalazine is rapidly distributed in the interstitial space and intravascular space. Since iocitalazine is not absorbed in the normal intestine, it is excreted entirely via feces. If absorbed due to intestinal perforation, iocitalazine is rapidly excreted by the kidneys. When administered intravenously, iocitalazine is primarily excreted unchanged via glomerular filtration, without reabsorption or tubular secretion. In renal failure, iocitalazine is primarily cleared via bile, saliva, sweat glands, and the colon. The volume of distribution of iocitalazine is 194 ml/kg. The total clearance of iocitalazine is 120 ml/min. Metabolism/Metabolites Rapid clearance indicates that iocitalazine is not metabolized in the body. Biological Half-Life The elimination half-life of iodocitalac is 1.1 hours. Ioxitalamic Acid has a molecular weight of 643.94 g/mol and a molecular formula of C12H11I3N2O5. It is an ionic iodinated contrast medium with a high osmolarity of 1500-1800 mOsm/kg. It is available in the form of sodium and meglumine salts. The compound is typically used as a research reagent. |
| Toxicity/Toxicokinetics |
Protein Binding
Iodinated monomeric contrast agents rarely bind to plasma proteins, and even when they do, the binding affinity is usually very weak. After binding, they account for only 0% to 27% of the administered iodine dose. The toxicological profile of Ioxitalamic Acid is characteristic of high-osmolar ionic contrast media. Common adverse effects may include allergic reactions, nephrotoxicity, and cardiovascular effects. Its safety has been evaluated in clinical use. It is a first-generation contrast agent. |

| Additional Infomation |
Iooxitalamic is an organic iodine compound composed of 2,4,6-triiodobenzoic acid with an acetamino group at the 3-position and a (2-hydroxyethyl)carbamoyl group at the 5-position. It is used as a contrast agent. It is both an exogenous substance and an environmental pollutant and a radioactive opacifier. It is a dicarboxylic acid monoamide, belonging to the acetamide class, organic iodine compounds, and benzoic acid compounds. Iooxitalamic is an ionic iodinated contrast agent. It is a first-generation contrast agent, composed of ionic monomers with high osmotic pressure (1500-1800 mOsm/kg). Sodium Iooxitalamic and Iooxitalamic meglumine were developed by Liebel-Flarshem Canada Inc. and approved by Health Canada in 1995. As of the most recent review in 2015, the drug was still marketed.
Drug Indications Both iocitalazine sodium and iocitalazine meglumine salt are indicated for exploration of the digestive tract via CT scan or routine gastroduodenal X-ray. Their use is limited to situations where barium sulfate is not recommended or contraindicated. Intravenous administration of iocitalazine is contraindicated due to its potential to cause serious side effects.Mechanism of Action Iocitalazine is an intestinal contrast agent that aids in the visualization of anatomical structures and the differentiation of intestinal loops from soft tissue masses.Pharmacodynamics Iocitalazine has an extremely high osmolarity, which is associated with nephrotoxicity, vasodilation, bradycardia, and pulmonary hypertension. This high osmolarity causes iocitalazine to move slowly through the intestines, facilitating subsequent analysis of its excretion in feces. Ioxitalamic Acid is an ionic iodinated contrast medium used for CT scans, angiography, and other imaging procedures. It is a first-generation contrast agent with high osmolarity. It acts as a bowel opacifier and enhances the visibility of internal organs. It is available from various chemical suppliers for research purposes. |
