Description :
Iohexol is a non-ionic Iodinated water-soluble contrast media that is widely utilised for medical imaging diagnostics. It is used for computed X-ray (CT) as well as angiography and myelography, as well as other radiographic techniques to increase the visual contrast of internal organs, blood vessels and tissue. Iohexol is known for its excellent safety profile, low osmolality, and high radiopacity, which ensures precise imaging results with minimal side effects. It appears as a clear, colourless to pale yellow solution and is formulated for intravenous, intrathecal, and intra-arterial administration. Its chemical stability and biocompatibility make it a preferred choice in modern diagnostic imaging. Complementary pharmaceutical agents such as Disodium Succinate and Phytol are often used in related formulations for biochemical and pharmaceutical research applications. Iohexol is available in medical and research-grade packaging — contact us to get the best price for your bulk or laboratory requirements.
Iohexol is extensively used as a contrast agent in medical imaging to visualise internal structures during CT scans, angiograms, and urography. It provides excellent imaging clarity with reduced patient discomfort compared to ionic contrast media.
Commonly administered as Iohexol Injection, it enhances the visibility of blood vessels, organs, and tissues during diagnostic procedures, allowing for precise identification of abnormalities, blockages, or tumours.
In pharmaceutical and biochemical laboratories, Iohexol serves as a reference compound and is utilised in formulation studies for developing improved contrast media and drug delivery systems.
Iohexol is used in kidney function studies to measure glomerular filtration rate (GFR) due to its predictable pharmacokinetics and non-reactivity in plasma assays.
Complementary research compounds like Ethyl Oleate and Fenchyl Alcohol are also employed in related chemical and medical formulation development.
Always use Iohexol under the supervision of qualified medical professionals.
