Description
Metrizamide is a non-ionic iodine-based radiocontrast agent. Diagnosing rabbits in a research environment suggested that Metrizamide is minimal neurotoxicity. In the centrifugation of biological particles, Metrizamide can be considered as a density gradient medium. Like other acylaminosugars, Metrizamide is an organic compound with a sugar linked to its chain through an N-acyl group. In a clinical setting Metrizamide shows promise as a replacement for iofendylate, and in myelography, the contrast agent of choice
