Fentrazamide

Fentrazamide (YRC 2388) is a herbicide. Fentrazamide has specific toxic effects on the nervous system and erythrocytes in rats, affecting the energy supply of cells mainly by interfering with the glycolysis process. Fentrazamide can be used as a useful tool to study the mechanisms of neurodegenerative diseases and erythrocyte dysfunction[1].
