The drug reduces the content of histamine in tissues due to the activation of the enzyme Quifenadine hydrochloride (phencarol) – quinuclidinyl-3-diphenyl carbinol hydrochloride – first genera- diamine oxidase, which breaks down up to 30 % of tissue histamine. Quifenadine hydrochloride is superior to diphenhy dramine in duration of antihistamine action. Unlike diphenhydramine and diprazine, quifenadine does not inhibit the CNS, is characterized by weak sedative properties. Quifenadine hydrochloride can be used in the development of tolerance to other sedative antihistamines. Quifenadine hydrochloride is used to treat anaphylactic shock, urticaria, hay fever, Quincke’s edema, dermatoses, allergic rhinitis, food and drug allergies.

  • Doxapram Elisa Kit Instructions Product #106219 & 106216 Forensic Use Only
    Neogen Corporation 944 Nandino Blvd., Lexington KY 40511 USA 800/477-8201 USA/Canada | 859/254-1221 Fax: 859/255-5532 | E-mail: [email protected] | Web: www.neogen.com/Toxicology DOXAPRAM ELISA KIT INSTRUCTIONS PRODUCT #106219 & 106216 FORENSIC USE ONLY INTENDED USE: For the determination of trace quantities of Doxapram and/or other metabolites in human urine, blood, oral fluid. DESCRIPTION Neogen Corporation’s Doxapram ELISA (Enzyme-Linked ImmunoSorbent Assay) test kit is a qualitative one-step kit designed for use as a screening device for the detection of drugs and/or their metabolites. The kit was designed for screening purposes and is intended for forensic use only. It is recommended that all suspect samples be confirmed by a quantitative method such as gas chromatography/mass spectrometry (GC/MS). ASSAY PRINCIPLES Neogen Corporation’s test kit operates on the basis of competition between the drug or its metabolite in the sample and the drug-enzyme conjugate for a limited number of antibody binding sites. First, the sample or control is added to the microplate. Next, the diluted drug-enzyme conjugate is added and the mixture is incubated at room temperature. During this incubation, the drug in the sample or the drug-enzyme conjugate binds to antibody immobilized in the microplate wells. After incubation, the plate is washed 3 times to remove any unbound sample or drug-enzyme conjugate. The presence of bound drug-enzyme conjugate is recognized by the addition of K-Blue® Substrate (TMB). After a 30 minute substrate incubation, the reaction is halted with the addition of Red Stop Solution.
