In Vitro MeIQx (0.47 mM; 0-120 min) binds covalently to mouse hemoglobin and is activated by mouse microsomes to metabolites[1].
In Vivo MeIQx (2.0-200 mg/kg; i.p.; male Swiss Webster mice) is in the covalent binding to hemoglobin in a dose-dependent manner[1]. Animal Model: Male Swiss Webster mice[1] Dosage: 2.0-200 mg/kg Administration: Intraperitoneal injection Result: Increased the covalent binding to hemoglobin in a dose-dependent manner.
