Product Description
Chloramphenicol succinate is the precursor of Chloramphenicol and is hematologically toxic. Chloramphenicol succinate is also an antibiotic. Chloramphenicol succinate is a competitive substrate and inhibitor of succinate dehydrogenase (SDH) and may be responsible for its toxicity.
Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
ADME/Pharmacokinetics
Absorption, Distribution and Excretion
Chloramphenicol succinate has a high degree of interpatient variability, with a Tmax of 18 minutes to 3 hours. A 1g oral chloramphenicol succinate dose every 6-8 hours reaches a mean Cmax of 11.2µg/mL with a Tmax of 1 hour.
6-80% of chloramphenicol succinate is eliminated unchanged in the urine, though this is highly variable between patients. On average, 30% of chloramphenicol succinate is eliminated unchanged in the urine and 10% is eliminated as the active chloramphenicol in the urine.
Chloramphenicol succinate has a volume of distribution of 0.2-3.1L/kg.
Chloramphenicol succinate's total clearance is 530-540mL/min in patients with normal renal and hepatic function, and 354mL/min in patients with renal or hepatic dysfunction. Chloramphenicol succinate's renal clearance is 222-260mL/min in patients with normal renal and hepatic function, and 66mL/min in patients with renal or hepatic dysfunction.
Metabolism / Metabolites
Chloramphenicol succinate is hydrolyzed to chloramphenicol. The propane-diol moiety of chloramphenicol can be metabolised through a number of pathways including glucuronidation, sulfate conjugation, phosphorylation, acetylation, and oxidation. The dichloroacetate moiety can be metabolised through hydrolysis of the amide group and dechlorination. The nitro functional group can also be metabolised to an aryl amine and aryl amide metabolite.
Biological Half-Life
The half life of chloramphenicol succinate in patients with normal renal and hepatic function is 0.6-2.7h.
Toxicity/Toxicokinetics
Protein Binding
Chloramphenicol succinate is 57-92% protein bound in plasma.

Additional Infomation
Chloramphenicol succinate is a member of amphetamines and a hemisuccinate.
Chloramphenicol succinate is an ester prodrug of [chloramphenicol]. Chloramphenicol is a bacteriostatic antibiotic. Use of chloramphenicol succinate and chloramphenicol has decreased due to the risk of potentially fatal blood dyscrasias. Chloramphenicol succinate was granted FDA approval on 20 February 1959.
Drug Indication
Chloramphenicol succinate is indicated to treat serious and susceptible bacterial infections where less dangerous drugs are ineffective or contraindicated.
Mechanism of Action
Chloramphenicol succinate is hydrolyzed into the active chloramphenicol. Chloramphenicol resembles uridine-5'-phosphate. It binds to the residues A2451 and A2452 in the 23S rRNA of the 50S ribosomal subunit of _E. coli_, which prevents translation.
Pharmacodynamics
Chloramphenicol succinate is a prodrug of chloramphenicol, which binds to bacterial ribosomes and prevents translation. It has a narrow therapeutic index and a moderate duration of action. Patients should be counselled regarding the risk of serious fatal blood dyscrasias.

Avoid repeated freeze and thaw cycles.

Calculator

Molarity Calculator allows you to calculate the mass, volume, and/or concentration required for a solution, as detailed below:

  • Calculate the Mass of a compound required to prepare a solution of known volume and concentration
  • Calculate the Volume of solution required to dissolve a compound of known mass to a desired concentration
  • Calculate the Concentration of a solution resulting from a known mass of compound in a specific volume
An example of molarity calculation using the molarity calculator is shown below:

  • Enter 350.26 in the Molecular Weight (MW) box
  • Enter 10 in the Concentration box and choose the correct unit (mM)
  • Enter 5 in the Volume box and choose the correct unit (mL)
  • Click the “Calculate” button
  • The answer of 17.513 mg appears in the Mass box. In a similar way, you may calculate the volume and concentration.

Dilution Calculator allows you to calculate how to dilute a stock solution of known concentrations. For example, you may Enter C1, C2 & V2 to calculate V1, as detailed below:

What volume of a given 10 mM stock solution is required to make 25 ml of a 25 μM solution?
Using the equation C1V1 = C2V2, where C1=10 mM, C2=25 μM, V2=25 ml and V1 is the unknown:
  • Enter 10 into the Concentration (Start) box and choose the correct unit (mM)
  • Enter 25 into the Concentration (End) box and select the correct unit (mM)
  • Enter 25 into the Volume (End) box and choose the correct unit (mL)
