Technol., 39, 1119 (2005), Wang, S., et al.: Food Control., 18, 731 (2007),

Fluconazole is an antifungal drug used to treat a wide range of fungal infections. Fluconazole is a cytochrome demethylase system inhibitor that acts by interfering with β-glucan biosynthesis. It has been shown to be effective in treating candidemia, a life-threatening form of candidiasis caused by the fungus Candida albicans. Fluconazole seems to be more effective than amphotericin B in treating some isolates of C. albicans, making it a valuable tool in the fight against this deadly fungal infection, although due to the increase of antimicrobial resistance, fluconazole has been studied in combination with other drugs (e.g. farnesol). Fluconazole is part of our Bio-X ™ Range. These products are aimed at a life science researchers who need high quality ready to use products for assay development, screening or other R&D work. With a solubility datasheet and convenient vials, all of our Bio-X ™ products are in stock accross our global warehouses for rapid delivery and ease of use.

Lauryl betaine (n-Dodecyl-N) has antifungal activity and inhibits Malassezia spp. Lauryl betaine is used as a surfactant and emulsifier and is commonly used in the skin care industry.

Nerol (Neryl alcohol) is a monoterpene found in many essential oils, such as lemon balm and hop.Nerol can lessened the severity of ouabain-triggered arrhythmias

Methasulfocarb is a monothiocarbamate. It is a fungicide used to treat a range of fungal diseases in rice.

Caerulomycin A is a bioactive compound classified as a natural broad-spectrum antibiotic, which is derived from various Streptomyces species found in soil. Its mode of action involves inhibiting fungal and bacterial growth by interfering with essential cellular processes, effectively curbing the proliferation of pathogenic microorganisms. This potent molecule achieves its effects by binding to specific cellular targets, thereby disrupting cell wall synthesis and other critical metabolic pathways. Caerulomycin A is renowned for its antifungal and antibacterial applications, particularly in research settings where it serves as a tool for understanding microbial resistance mechanisms. Additionally, its properties extend to immunosuppressive activities, making it a subject of interest for potential therapeutic applications in transplant medicine and autoimmune diseases. By modulating immune responses, this compound presents a promising avenue for developing novel immunosuppressive agents. Scientists continue to explore its full potential and therapeutic implications, while its unique mode of action contributes to advancements in antibiotic research and development.

Applications A new N-halamine monomer was synthesized and used to prepare water-based polymeric N-halamines by emulsion polymn. Also, the compound was tested for antibacterial activity against Candida albicans, Staphylococcus aureus, and Escherichia coli. References Kohl, H., et al.: J. Pharm.
