Thiazole derivatives are attractive candidates for drug development because they can be efficiently synthesized and are active against a number of diseases and conditions, including diabetes. In our present study, we investigated the anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties of N-adamantyl-4-methylthiazol-2-amine (KHG26693)

Dietary Antioxidants

Antioxidants protect biological systems from oxidative damage produced by oxygen-containing free radicals and from redoxactive transition metal ions such as iron, copper, and cadmium.

Our team of scientists has experience in all areas of research including Life Science, Material Science, Chemical Synthesis, Chromatography, Analytical and many others.
