Methazolamide

SKU: orb1310931

Description

Methazolamide (CL 8490) is a potent carbonic anhydrase inhibitor employed in research as a diuretic agent and for studying glaucoma pathophysiology. Its mechanism is utilized in both in vitro enzymatic assays and in vivo models to investigate intraocular pressure regulation and fluid balance.
