| Targets |
The primary target of Carboxin is the mitochondrial respiratory chain, specifically the succinate dehydrogenase complex II (SDHI). By inhibiting this enzyme, Carboxin disrupts energy production in fungal cells, leading to their death and preventing the growth and spread of fungal diseases.

| ln Vitro |
Within the class of oxazolosulfane fungicides is carbocine, a systemic fungicide. Carboxymethine is useful in combating Phycomycetes, Deuteromycetes, and Basidiomycetes among other fungi [1]. In mitochondria, carboxymethine plays a significant role in succinate oxidation [2].
Carboxin demonstrates high specificity against fungal classes such as Basidiomycetes, Deuteromycetes, and Phycomycetes. It shows significant antifungal activity against *Fusarium graminearum* and *Fusarium oxysporum* with growth inhibition of 56.3% and 23.6%, respectively, at 100 µg/ml. It also possesses moderate antiviral activity against SARS-CoV-2 (IC50 > 20000 nM). |
| ln Vivo |
In vivo, Carboxin is effective as a systemic fungicide. It can control wheat leaf rust disease caused by *Puccinia recondita* with 100% efficacy at 50 µg/ml and 43.0% at 20 µg/ml. It is also effective against *Oculimacula yallundae* with an EC50 value of 2.5 µg/ml.
|
| Enzyme Assay |
In vitro enzyme assays measure the inhibition of succinate dehydrogenase activity. Mitochondria are isolated from fungal cells, and succinate oxidation is measured spectrophotometrically in the presence of varying concentrations of Carboxin. The compound's ability to inhibit this enzymatic activity is correlated with its antifungal potency.
|
| Cell Assay |
In vitro cell-based assays involve culturing fungal pathogens (e.g., *Fusarium* spp.) in the presence of Carboxin to assess mycelial growth inhibition. The percentage of growth inhibition is calculated by comparing treated cultures to untreated controls.
|
| Animal Protocol |
In vivo animal model studies are not typically performed for agricultural fungicides. Instead, efficacy is evaluated in plant models. For example, wheat plants are infected with *Puccinia recondita* and then treated with Carboxin to measure the reduction in disease severity.
|
| ADME/Pharmacokinetics |
As a systemic fungicide, Carboxin is absorbed by plants and translocated throughout the tissue. Its pharmacokinetic properties are optimized for plant uptake and distribution, ensuring protection against fungal pathogens. In mammals, it is metabolized and excreted.
|
| Toxicity/Toxicokinetics |
The toxicological profile of Carboxin indicates low to moderate toxicity in mammals. It has been shown to activate the human pregnane X receptor (PXR) and other signaling pathways, suggesting potential for drug-drug interactions. It is considered safe for its intended agricultural use when applied according to label instructions.

| Additional Infomation |
Carboxyaniline is an aniline compound formed by the condensation of the amino group of aniline with the carboxyl group of 2-methyl-5,6-dihydro-1,4-oxothiacyclohexene-3-carboxylic acid. It is a fungicide used to control smut and powdery mildew, and is commonly used as a seed treatment. It is an EC 1.3.5.1 [succinate dehydrogenase (quinone)] inhibitor and antifungal pesticide. It is an aniline compound, an enamide compound, an oxoheterocyclic compound, an organosulfur heterocyclic compound, an aniline fungicide, and a secondary amide compound. It is a systemic agricultural fungicide and seed treatment. Carboxyaniline is a systemic fungicide used to control seed and seedling diseases (smut, rot, wilt) in barley, beans, rapeseed, corn, cotton, oats, onions, peanuts, rice, rye, safflower, sorghum, soybeans, triticale, and wheat. Carboxyaniline has low acute toxicity. Toxicity levels range from Grade I (highest toxicity) to Grade IV (lowest toxicity), with oral administration classified as Grade III, inhalation as Grade IV, and dermal administration as Grade III. Carboxybenzin is slightly irritating to the eyes (Toxicity Grade III), non-irritating to the skin (Toxicity Grade IV), and does not cause skin sensitization. The toxic mechanism of carboxybenzin has not been fully investigated; however, its primary target organs appear to be the liver and kidneys. In carcinogenicity studies in rats and mice, carboxybenzin did not show any significant carcinogenic potential.
A systemic agricultural fungicide and seed treatment agent. See also: Carboxybenzin sulfoxide (note moved to). Carboxin has been a key agricultural fungicide for decades, marketed under names like Vitavax and Kisvax. Its mechanism as an SDHI inhibitor makes it a classic example of a targeted fungicide. Research has also explored its activity against parasites like *Trypanosoma cruzi*, the causative agent of Chagas disease. |
