furazolidone and Sensitivity and Specificity

furazolidone has been researched along with Sensitivity and Specificity in 7 studies

Furazolidone: A nitrofuran derivative with antiprotozoal and antibacterial activity. Furazolidone acts by gradual inhibition of monoamine oxidase. (From Martindale, The Extra Pharmacopoeia, 30th ed, p514)
furazolidone : A member of the class of oxazolidines that is 1,3-oxazolidin-2-one in which the hydrogen attached to the nitrogen is replaced by an N-{[(5-nitro-2-furyl)methylene]amino} group. It has antibacterial and antiprotozoal properties, and is used in the treatment of giardiasis and cholera.

Sensitivity and Specificity: Binary classification measures to assess test results. Sensitivity or recall rate is the proportion of true positives. Specificity is the probability of correctly determining the absence of a condition. (From Last, Dictionary of Epidemiology, 2d ed)

Research Excerpts

ExcerptRelevanceReference
" Three established cell lines were used to study the toxic effect of furazolidone (FZ), a widely used veterinary drug: HEp-2 cells, derived from a human larynx carcinoma, previously used in toxicity screening of several compounds; Caco-2 cells, derived from a human colon adenocarcinoma, able to differentiate partially in culture, and V 79, a fibroblast cell line derived from Chinese hamster lung, widely used to assess direct toxicants."1.29Established cell lines for safety assessment of food contaminants: differing furazolidone toxicity to V 79, HEp-2 and Caco-2 cells.
