Quinocetone Usage And Synthesis

Description

Quinocetone is a novel veterinary chemicals that is also bacteriocide and potential anti-tumor agent.

Uses

Quinocetone can be used as analyte in analytical study for multi-residue determination of 210 drugs in pork by ultra-high-performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry. Bacteriocide and potential anti-tumor agent.

Definition

Quinocetone is a quinoxaline-N,N-dioxide antimicrobial agent used in veterinary medicine as a feed additive for livestock, birds and fish. It is an antidiarrheal growth promotion drug developed in Lanzhou, China. Quinocetone has also been seen to induce a decline in aldosterone production from the swine adrenal glands in vivo and in vitro, and thus cause hypovolemia, hyponatremia and hyperkalemia. The compound is under investigation for potential benefits against aldosterone dysmetabolism disease via the reduction of aldosterone production in adrenal and/or the cardiovascular tissues. This may provide a new option in the therapy for aldosterone dysmetabolism disease, especially in the cardiovascular system.

Biological Activity

Quinocetone is a potent synthetic antimicrobial agent that is used for improving the feed efficiency and controlling dysentery in food-producing animals.
