The Company is also engaged in the development of therapeutic assets and proprietary extraction technology, which is applied to the production of active ingredients from renewable plant resources used in cosmeceutical products (i.e., oat beta glucan and avenanthramides, which are found in skincare product brands like Aveeno and Burt’s Bees formulations) and being developed as potential nutraceuticals and/or pharmaceuticals.

RE:AEZS's test vs. the clonidine and an arginine test

RE:AEZS's test vs. the clonidine and an arginine testPerplexity Ai:

The Macimorelin stimulation test is an orally administered test that takes approximately 90 minutes to complete, with blood samples taken at intervals of 30, 45, 60, and 90 minutes after administration
.In contrast, the clonidine and arginine tests are more time-consuming and require intravenous administration:
  1. Clonidine Test: This test typically involves administering clonidine orally or intravenously and then taking blood samples at multiple intervals over a period of about 2 to 3 hours to measure growth hormone levels.
  2. Arginine Test: The arginine stimulation test involves an intravenous infusion of arginine, with blood samples taken at intervals over approximately 2 to 3 hours to assess growth hormone secretion.
Thus, both the clonidine and arginine tests generally take about 2 to 3 hours, making them longer than the Macimorelin test, which is completed in about 90 minutes.
