Not applicable. HMMNI-d3 is not a pharmacologically active drug; it is an analytical internal standard. The unlabeled compound, HMMNI (hydroxy dimetridazole, CAS 148856-81-5), is a hydroxylated metabolite of dimetridazole. Dimetridazole (CAS 551-92-8) is a nitroimidazole-class antiprotozoal agent used in veterinary medicine to combat protozoal infections in poultry and swine (e.g., histomoniasis, swine dysentery). The primary target of dimetridazole is anaerobic protozoa and bacteria, where nitroreduction generates cytotoxic metabolites.
|
|---|---|
| ln Vitro |
In vitro, dimetridazole, the parent drug of HMMNI, demonstrates antiprotozoal activity against Trichomonas, Histomonas, Giardia, and anaerobic bacteria. The mechanism involves nitroreduction of the 5-nitroimidazole group by microbial nitroreductases, generating reactive intermediates that damage DNA and other macromolecules. HMMNI is the major oxidative metabolite resulting from hydroxylation of a methyl group on the imidazole ring. The d3-labeled version has no biological activity.
|
| ln Vivo |
In vivo, dimetridazole is administered orally to food-producing animals for the prevention and treatment of protozoal diseases. It is absorbed from the gastrointestinal tract and extensively metabolized, primarily to HMMNI (hydroxy dimetridazole). The parent drug and its metabolites, including HMMNI, are excreted in urine and feces. HMMNI is the marker residue for monitoring dimetridazole use in food safety programs due to its longer persistence in edible tissues compared to the parent drug. The d3-labeled version is used as an internal standard.
|
| Enzyme Assay |
Not applicable. As an analytical internal standard, HMMNI-d3 is used in LC-MS/MS methods for the quantification of dimetridazole residues and its metabolite HMMNI in food products (e.g., poultry, pork, eggs) and animal tissues. A typical non-cellular workflow involves: preparing the d3-labeled compound as an internal standard; adding it to homogenized tissue or food samples; performing solid-phase extraction (SPE) or liquid-liquid extraction to isolate the analytes; separation by reversed-phase HPLC on a C18 column; and detection by tandem mass spectrometry in positive ion mode using multiple reaction monitoring (MRM) of the parent→product ion transitions.
|
| Cell Assay |
Not applicable. HMMNI-d3 is not used in standard cell-based assays for pharmacological purposes. As an analytical internal standard, it is added to biological samples (such as tissue homogenates or food extracts) for quantitation only. If cell-based studies are performed with the unlabeled compound, they involve treating anaerobic protozoa or bacteria with dimetridazole and measuring its metabolism to HMMNI, but the d3-labeled version is used as an analytical standard for LC-MS/MS quantitation.
|
| Animal Protocol |
Not applicable. HMMNI-d3 is not used as a therapeutic agent in animal experiments. It is an analytical internal standard for ex vivo quantitation. In residue depletion studies, food-producing animals are administered dimetridazole (the parent drug), and tissues (muscle, liver, kidney, fat) are collected at various time points post-administration. HMMNI levels are quantified by LC-MS/MS using HMMNI-d3 as the internal standard. The labeled compound itself is not administered to the animals.
|
| ADME/Pharmacokinetics |
Not applicable. HMMNI-d3 is not a drug candidate; therefore, no pharmacokinetic parameters are reported. The compound is supplied as a research-grade standard. For storage, it should be kept under the conditions specified in the certificate of analysis, typically at -20degC in a dry, well-ventilated place, protected from light. The unlabeled parent drug dimetridazole is no longer approved for use in food-producing animals in many jurisdictions due to concerns about genotoxicity and carcinogenicity.
|
| Toxicity/Toxicokinetics |
Not applicable. Toxicity studies are not performed for analytical reference standards like HMMNI-d3, as it is not intended for human consumption. The parent drug dimetridazole has been classified as a possible human carcinogen due to genotoxicity concerns, which led to its ban in many countries (including EU and China) for use in food-producing animals. HMMNI is the primary residue marker. The d3-labeled standard should be handled with caution using appropriate personal protective equipment and waste disposal procedures.

| Additional Infomation |
HMMNI-d3 is a stable isotope-labeled internal standard for LC-MS/MS quantification of dimetridazole residues and its hydroxy metabolite HMMNI in food safety testing. Dimetridazole is a nitroimidazole antiprotozoal agent formerly used in veterinary medicine. Due to concerns about genotoxicity and carcinogenicity (similar to other nitroimidazoles), its use in food-producing animals has been banned in many countries. Monitoring for dimetridazole and HMMNI residues is a regulatory requirement for food import/export. This product is strictly an analytical standard for residue analysis.
