Subacute myelo-optico-neuropathy (SMON) is a progressive neurological disorder affecting the spinal cord, peripheral nerves and optic nerves. Although it has been assumed that SMON was caused by intoxication of clioquinol, the mechanism underlying clioquinol-induced neurotoxicity is not fully understood. This

The aim of this study is to investigate the expected adhesion-modifying effect of clinoquinol which has metal-chelating feature that limits the inflammation and fibroblastic activity. A total of 40 Wistar Albino rats were included, which were divided into 5 groups.

Our team of scientists has experience in all areas of research including Life Science, Material Science, Chemical Synthesis, Chromatography, Analytical and many others.
