| Hazard Information | Back Directory | [Uses]
Mercaptoethylguanidine (MEG) dihydrobromide is selective inhibitor of the inducible nitric oxide synthase and peroxynitrite scavenger. Mercaptoethylguanidine (MEG) dihydrobromide has the potential for inflammatory bowel diseases research. | [in vivo]
Mercaptoethylguanidine (MEG; 10 mg/kg i.v. b. i.d.) dihydrobromide significantly reduces the appearance of diarrhea and the loss of body weight in male rats with colitis[1].
Mercaptoethylguanidine (10 mg/kg/day; ip; for 5 days) dihydrobromide ameliorates oxidative stress parameters and antioxidant enzyme activities in forty-five Sprague-Dawley rats weighing 200 to 250 g with esophagus uninjured[2].
