Imidocarb Dipropionate (CAS 55750-06-6) High Purity Supplier | Finetech Industry
Finetech Industry Limited supplies Imidocarb Dipropionate with high purity and strict analytical quality control to support global research institutions, pharmaceutical laboratories, and veterinary medicine developers. This compound is widely recognized as a powerful antiprotozoal agent used in the study of tick-borne diseases and hemoparasitic infections in livestock and companion animals.
With a molecular formula of C₂₂H₂₆N₆O₃ and a molecular weight of 422.49, Imidocarb Dipropionate belongs to the carbanilide derivative class and functions as a bis-quaternary ammonium compound. Due to its strong activity against protozoan parasites, it remains an essential reference molecule in tropical medicine, veterinary pharmacology, and antiparasitic drug research.
Molecular Mechanism of Action
The therapeutic and experimental value of Imidocarb Dipropionate is based on its unique interaction with protozoan DNA and cellular metabolism. Studies have demonstrated a dual mechanism of action that disrupts parasite survival and replication.
1. DNA Binding and Groove Interaction
Imidocarb molecules bind to the minor groove of protozoan DNA, interfering with DNA replication and RNA transcription. This interaction prevents normal genetic expression and inhibits parasite proliferation.
2. Polyamine Metabolism Interference
Research published in the journal Molecular and Biochemical Parasitology suggests that Imidocarb also inhibits polyamine uptake and utilization. Polyamines are essential for protozoan cell growth and differentiation, making this pathway a critical therapeutic target.
Through these combined mechanisms, Imidocarb effectively suppresses the metabolic and reproductive processes of susceptible parasites.
Major Research Applications
1. Treatment
Research for Hemoparasitic Infections
Imidocarb Dipropionate is widely used as a reference compound for Babesiosis and Anaplasmosis research in cattle, horses, and dogs.
Studies reported in the Journal of Veterinary Internal Medicine highlight its ability to clear Babesia canis and Babesia gibsoni infections by disrupting parasite energy metabolism, particularly through interference with aerobic glycolysis pathways.
2. Pharmacokinetics and Residue Analysis
Because of its long biological half-life and tissue persistence, Imidocarb Dipropionate is frequently studied in food safety and veterinary toxicology research.
Finetech’s high-purity reference standard is suitable for developing advanced analytical methods such as:
UHPLC-MS/MS detection methods for trace carbanilide residues in animal-derived matrices
Metabolic
profiling studies examining biliary excretion pathways
Protein binding
affinity research to evaluate pharmacokinetic behavior
These studies are critical for establishing regulatory safety limits in veterinary medicine.
3. Chemical Sterilization Research in Veterinary Epidemiology
Another emerging research direction involves the use of Imidocarb Dipropionate as a chemical sterilizing agent in livestock populations. By eliminating carrier states of certain tick-borne diseases, the compound may help interrupt transmission cycles within herds.
This strategy has important implications for disease control programs and livestock health management.
