oxyquinoline and Fever of Unknown Origin

oxyquinoline has been researched along with Fever of Unknown Origin in 8 studies

Oxyquinoline: An antiseptic with mild fungistatic, bacteriostatic, anthelmintic, and amebicidal action. It is also used as a reagent and metal chelator, as a carrier for radio-indium for diagnostic purposes, and its halogenated derivatives are used in addition as topical anti-infective agents and oral antiamebics.
quinolin-8-ol : A monohydroxyquinoline that is quinoline substituted by a hydroxy group at position 8. Its fungicidal properties are used for the control of grey mould on vines and tomatoes.

Fever of Unknown Origin: Fever in which the etiology cannot be ascertained.
