| Targets |
Fluoroquinolonic acid targets bacterial DNA gyrase and topoisomerase IV, essential enzymes involved in DNA replication, transcription, and repair. It binds to the enzyme-DNA complex, stabilizing DNA strand breaks created by DNA gyrase and topoisomerase IV. This action directly inhibits DNA synthesis in bacteria. The compound's cyclopropyl group, fluorine atom, and carboxylic acid functional group on the quinoline core are essential for its antibacterial activity.

|---|---|
| ln Vitro |
In vitro, Fluoroquinolonic acid has broad-spectrum activity against Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria. It acts as a direct inhibitor of DNA synthesis by binding to the enzyme-DNA complex and stabilizing DNA strand breaks. Its mechanism of action affects the biochemical pathway of DNA synthesis in bacteria. Specific MIC values are not detailed in the available literature. The compound is structurally related to ciprofloxacin and is used as a reference standard for impurity analysis.
|
| ln Vivo |
Specific in vivo data for Fluoroquinolonic acid are limited. As a bacteriostatic antibiotic, the compound would have potential for in vivo efficacy studies in bacterial infection models. However, specific published in vivo protocols for this compound are not detailed. The compound is primarily used as a research standard and impurity reference for ciprofloxacin rather than as a therapeutic agent. Further studies are needed to evaluate its in vivo efficacy.
|
| Enzyme Assay |
The antibacterial activity is assessed using standard broth microdilution or agar diffusion methods following CLSI guidelines. Bacterial strains (Gram-positive and Gram-negative) are cultured in appropriate media and treated with serial dilutions of Fluoroquinolonic acid. The MIC is defined as the lowest concentration that inhibits visible growth. DNA gyrase and topoisomerase IV inhibition are assessed using enzyme activity assays with purified enzymes and supercoiled DNA substrates.
|
| Cell Assay |
For cellular studies, bacterial cultures are grown in appropriate broth media. Fluoroquinolonic acid is added at various concentrations, and bacterial growth is monitored by measuring optical density at 600 nm or by colony counting on agar plates. The compound is typically dissolved in DMSO or 0.1N NaOH and diluted in culture media. The compound has a molecular formula of C₁₃H₉ClFNO₃ and a molecular weight of 281.67 g/mol. It is soluble in DMSO at 25 mg/mL.
|
| Animal Protocol |
In vivo studies for Fluoroquinolonic acid would be conducted in appropriate infection models. Mouse models of bacterial infection would be used, with the compound administered via oral gavage or intraperitoneal injection. Bacterial burden in tissues would be measured, and survival rates would be monitored. However, specific published protocols for this compound are not available. The compound is primarily used as a research standard rather than a therapeutic agent.
|
| ADME/Pharmacokinetics |
Specific pharmacokinetic data for Fluoroquinolonic acid are not extensively reported. The compound has a molecular weight of 281.67 g/mol and is soluble in DMSO at 25 mg/mL. As a fluoroquinolone derivative, it would be expected to have similar PK properties to other fluoroquinolones, including good oral bioavailability, tissue distribution, and renal elimination. The compound should be stored as a powder at -20°C for up to 3 years or at 4°C for up to 2 years.
|
| Toxicity/Toxicokinetics |
Specific toxicological data for Fluoroquinolonic acid are not reported. As a fluoroquinolone derivative, potential toxicities would be similar to other drugs in this class, including gastrointestinal effects, central nervous system effects, and tendon toxicity. The compound is primarily used as a research standard and impurity reference, and comprehensive toxicology studies for this specific compound have not been reported. Standard safety precautions should be taken when handling.

| Solubility (In Vivo) |
Solubility in Formulation 1: ≥ 1.67 mg/mL (5.93 mM) (saturation unknown) in 10% DMSO + 90% Corn Oil (add these co-solvents sequentially from left to right, and one by one), clear solution.
For example, if 1 mL of working solution is to be prepared, you can add 100 μL of 16.7 mg/mL clear DMSO stock solution to 900 μL of corn oil and mix evenly.  (Please use freshly prepared in vivo formulations for optimal results.) |

| 10 mM | 0.3550 mL | 1.7751 mL | 3.5503 mL |
*Note: Please select an appropriate solvent for the preparation of stock solution based on your experiment needs. For most products, DMSO can be used for preparing stock solutions (e.g. 5 mM, 10 mM, or 20 mM concentration); some products with high aqueous solubility may be dissolved in water directly. Solubility information is available at the above Solubility Data section. Once the stock solution is prepared, aliquot it to routine usage volumes and store at -20°C or -80°C. Avoid repeated freeze and thaw cycles.
