    Product Description

    Iodixanol is a nonionic, water-soluble contrast reagent.1 It induces apoptosis and mitophagy in renal epithelial cells in a rat model of contrast-induced acute kidney injury.2 Iodixanol has also been used as a density gradient medium in the fractionation of plasma lipoproteins.3 Formulations containing iodixanol have been used for the visualization of arteries, veins, the urinary tract, head, and body using X-ray and computed tomography (CT) scan imaging techniques.

    WARNING This product is not for human or veterinary use.
