General description

Acetohydroxamic acid is a potent inhibitor of bacterial urease activity and reduces urinary ammonia levels. 2-Acetohydroxamic acid loaded floating microspheres forms an efficient drug delivery system for the treatment of Helicobacter pylori.

Application

Acetohydroxamic acid was used:
  • to study the mechanism of complexation of iron (III) with acetohydroxamic acid
  • to study the inhibitory mechanism of lansoprazole and omeprazole on Helicobacter pyloni
  • in urease inhibition studies
  • for in situ generation of nitrosocarbonylmethane as a Diels-Alder dienophile
Used in urease inhibition studies and for in situ generation of nitrosocarbonylmethane as a Diels-Alder dienophile.
