A water soluble, stable organic free radical that reacts stoichiometrically with NO. Carboxy-PTIO converts NO to NO2 and does not dramatically affect other NO related metabolites. This scavenger allows for the specific investigation of the effect o
ChEBI: Potassium 2-(4-carboxylatophenyl)-4,4,5,5-tetramethylimidazoline-1-oxyl-3-oxide is a potassium salt having 2-(4-carboxylatophenyl)-4,4,5,5-tetramethylimidazoline-1-oxyl-3-oxide as the counterion. It has a role as a radical scavenger and an apoptosis inhibitor. It is a potassium salt and an organic radical. It contains a carboxylato-PTIO.
