Opko Health and Pathogenics report potential use of NCT in eye infections

The study showed that, in vitro, NCT clearly demonstrated amoebicidal activity at concentrations that are likely to be well tolerated in humans.

Study also reported that co-treatment with ammonium chloride appeared to further enhance NCT’s anti-parasitic activity, including its activity against Acanthamoeba cysts, resulting in the complete loss of viability of the infection-causing parasites.
