1. Product Overview

Diatrizoic Acid Dihydrate (CAS 50978-11-5) is a high-purity iodinated contrast medium widely used in medical imaging. Key specifications include:

Chemical Formula: C₁₁H₉I₃N₂O₄·2H₂O
Molecular Weight: 653.92 g/mol
Appearance: White crystalline powder
Purity: ≥98% (HPLC)
Storage: 2-8°C, protected from light and moisture

2. Key Applications

Diatrizoic Acid Dihydrate is primarily utilized as a radiocontrast agent in:

Medical Imaging: Enhances visibility in X-ray and CT scans for urinary tract, cardiovascular, and gastrointestinal diagnostics.
Angiography: Provides clear visualization of blood vessels and organs.
Research: Used in preclinical studies to evaluate renal function and vascular permeability.

Its high iodine content (≈58%) ensures excellent radiographic contrast with low toxicity.

3. Usage Guidelines

Preparation & Administration

Reconstitution: Dissolve in sterile water or saline to achieve concentrations of 30-60% (w/v).
Dosage: Administer intravenously at 0.5-2 mL/kg, depending on patient weight and imaging requirements.
Safety: Conduct allergy testing prior to use. Contraindicated in patients with hyperthyroidism or iodine hypersensitivity.

Storage & Handling

Store in airtight containers away from light and humidity.
Discard discolored solutions immediately.
Use PPE (gloves, goggles) during handling.

4. Practical Use Cases

Case 1: Intravenous Urography

Scenario: A 45-year-old patient with suspected kidney stones underwent IV urography using 50 mL of 50% Diatrizoic Acid Dihydrate solution. The contrast enabled clear visualization of renal calyces and ureters, confirming a 4-mm stone in the left ureter.

Case 2: Coronary Angiography

Scenario: In a cardiac study, 35 mL of 60% solution was injected into the coronary arteries. The high iodine density provided precise imaging of arterial blockages, guiding successful stent placement.

User’evaluation of us

"vivalr is my partner for years. Met at 2014 Shanghai CPHI Expo. Not interested then as had stable supplier. In Sep 2016, original supplier couldn't guarantee quality and delivery. Thought of Zhai and his company first. So far, have stable business relationship and good personal friendship."

Marcus Long

" In years of sourcing from China, first found working with Sincere Chemical great. They help in production, delivery and tech, saving time. When first asking Zhai for optical brightener quote, got detailed one with prices, trade details, company info, R&D and production capacity, packaging and raw material control."

Emma Kung

" Hi, I'm Kim, Zhai's partner. Don't like him much (as he never gives more for my prices, haha), but still write customer feedback. Zhai's emails help me understand product and industry. Satisfied with his work ethic. He provides quotes and helps with work details, so I can focus on other things. He's the best supplier for me."

Lisa Phoenix

" Sincere Chemical team visited our USA factory in the year of 2017. We think highly of cooperation with them. We thanked you for the past excellent orders and best product quality. We also talked about some new products for future orders. We will be still in strategic cooperation in the future and help each other."
