| Name | Oxolinic acid |
| Description | Oxolinic acid (Nidantin) is a synthetic antimicrobial related to NALIDIXIC ACID and used in URINARY TRACT INFECTIONS. |
| In vitro | Oxolinic acid, a quinolone antibacterial agent, inhibits reversibly the ATP-dependent replicative DNA synthesis in permeable cell systems as well as in cellophane disk lysates[4]. It also inhibits bacterial DNA gyrase but not eukaryotic topoisomerases, reversibly binding gyrase subunit A in gyrase-DNA complexes, blocking supercoiling activity and inhibiting DNA synthesis at 0.5-5 μg/ml[5][6][7]. |
| In vivo | The antimicrobial agent oxolinic acid, injected i.p. in mice, induces a dose dependent increase in locomotor activity. the stimulant locomotor effect of oxolinic acid depends on the blockade of the neuronal dopamine uptake complex[2]. |
| Storage | Powder: -20°C for 3 years | In solvent: -80°C for 1 year | Shipping with blue ice/Shipping at ambient temperature. |
| Solubility Information | DMSO : < 1 mg/mL (insoluble or slightly soluble)
