Nowadays, investigation for possible therapeutic applications of various metal-based drugs attracts the scientific interest worldwide. The triorganotin compound bis[triphenyltin(IV)](3-carboxy-pyridine-2-thionato) (SnMNA), was tested for its anti-proliferative and antitumor activities. Cytotoxic activity was assessed by Trypan blue and 3-(4.5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2.5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide assay (MTT).

Assessment of preactivated and thiolated silicone oils as potential long-term vitreous replacement. Thioglycolic acid (TGA) and 3-mercaptopropionic acid (MPA) were covalently coupled to amino-modified silicone oil and subsequently preactivated with 2-mercaptonicotinic acid (2-MNA). Each silicone thiomer was evaluated in view
