2′,7′-Dichlorofluorescein diacetate is a cell-permeable fluorogenic probe that is useful for the detection of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and nitric oxide (NO) and for the determination of the degree of overall oxidative stress.

Carglumic acid is an orphan drug used for the treatment of hyperammonaemia in patients with N-acetylglutamate synthase deficiency. This rare genetic disorder results in elevated blood levels of ammonia, which can eventually cross the blood-brain barrier and cause neurologic problems, cerebral edema, coma, and death.

SXC 2023 ((S)-2-acetamido-3-(4-methylbenzoylthio)propanoic acid) is a therapeutic prodrug of N-acetyl-L-cysteine for the treatment of CNS disorders and neurocognitive disorders, and can be used to treat glutamatergic dysfunction and psychiatric disorders in which oxidative stress plays a key role.
