Zinc chloride is one of the many zinc compounds with antioxidant activity and with acidic property.
This study was aimed to investigate separate and combined treatment effects of crocin and zinc chloride on blood levels of zinc and metabolic and oxidative parameters in diabetic rats. Crocin (25 and 50 mg/kg) and zinc chloride (5 mg/kg) significantly recovered the decreased levels of zinc, insulin, and TAC and improved the increased levels of glucose and MDA in STZ-induced diabetic rats. In a combination treatment performed with an ineffective dose of crocin (12.5 mg/kg) and a low dose of zinc chloride (1.25 mg/kg), improving effects were observed on the above-mentioned biochemical parameters (1).
The history of zinc chloride therapy before and including Frederic E. Mohs' (1910-2002) early contributions to dermatologic oncology is presented. In 1932, Mohs devised a method of cutaneous surgery that employed zinc-chloride paste to devitalize basal or squamous cell carcinoma. This paper surveys the chemical synthesis of zinc chloride, the formulation of zinc-chloride paste as a cutaneous escharotic, and the extent to which Mohs' method compares with those of 19th and early 20th century predecessors (2).
This study examined the efficacy of calcium sulfate (CaSO4) as a carrier for intramedullary delivery of zinc chloride (ZnCl2) to treat fracture healing in a BB Wistar rat model. A non-carrier-mediated injection of 3.0 mg/kg of ZnCl2 has previously been shown to enhance fracture healing (3).
Zinc chloride is used as a hemostatic agent to control local bleeding in dental surgeries (4) and it is used in water purify as a protein coagulant (5).
