Product Description

Gatifloxacin (formerly also known as AM-1155, CG5501, BMS-206584; PD135432; Tequin; Zymar; Gatiflo; Zymaxid; AM 1155) is a fourth-generation antibiotic of the fluoroquinolone family used to treat tuberculosis and pneumonia, it inhibits the bacterial enzymes DNA gyrase and topoisomerase IV. Both gatifloxacin and moxifloxacin are significantly more active than levofloxacin and have somewhat better in vitro activity against M. tuberculosis. Gatifloxacin has MICs of 0.125 μg/mL against M. tuberculosis ATCC 35801. Among the quinolones tested, gatifloxacin has the lowest activity against HeLa cell topoisomerase II (IC50 = 265 mg/mL), despite having strong inhibitory effects against bacterial type II topoisomerases.

Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
Targets
Topoisomerase II ( IC50 = 36.7 μM ); Quinolone
ln Vitro

In vitro activity: Gatifloxacin has IC50 values of 13.8 μg/ml, 0.109 μg/ml, and 265 μg/ml against HeLa cell topoisomerase II, E. coli NIHJ JC-2 DNA gyrase, and S. aureus MS5935 topoisomerase IV, respectively[1].
Gatifloxacin has MIC values of 0.05 μg/ml, 0.0063 μg/ml, and 122 μg/ml against HeLa cell topoisomerase II, E. coli NIHJ JC-2 DNA gyrase, and S. aureus MS5935 topoisomerase IV, respectively[1].
Gatifloxacin shows antibacterial activity against the first-, second-, third-, and fourth-step mutants of the wild-type strains (MS5935, MS5952, MR5867, and MR6009), with MIC values of 0.05 to 0.10 μg/ml, 0.20 μg/ml, 1.56 to 3.13 μg/ml, 1.56 to 6.25 μg/ml, and 50 to 200 μg/ml, respectively. With the exception of the second-step mutant of strain MS5935, gatifloxacin exhibits the most potent activity against the second- and third-step mutants (MS5952, MR5867, and MR6009)[2].
Gatifloxacin possesses potent anti-norA transformant NY12 (MIC, 0.39 μg/ml) activity[2]. Gatifloxacin (20-100 μM; 72 hours) reduces insulin content significantly to 60% on Day 1 and further to 50.1% and 44.7% on Day 3 when exposed to 20 μM and 100 μM gatifloxacin, respectively[3].

ln Vivo
Gatifloxacin(subcutaneous injection; 100 mg/kg; three times daily; thirty days) dramatically reduces the number of lesion in mouse footpad with Nocardia brasiliensis[4].
Enzyme Assay
The bacterial enzymes DNA gyrase and topoisomerase IV are inhibited by the antibiotic gatifloxacin, which belongs to the fourth generation fluoroquinolone family.
Cell Assay
Antimicrobial Like other members of the fourth-generation fluoroquinolone family of antibiotics, gatifloxacin inhibits the bacterial enzymes DNA gyrase and topoisomerase IV. When it came to the second-step mutants (grlA gyrA; gatifloxacin MIC range, 1.56 to 3.13 microg/ml) and the third-step mutants (grlA gyrA grlA; gatifloxacin MIC range, 1.56 to 6.25 microg/ml), gatifloxacin exhibited activity comparable to that of tosufloxacin and more potent than those of norfloxacin, ofloxacin, ciprofloxacin, and sparfloxacin. These results suggest that gatifloxacin has the most potent inhibitory activity against singly mutated topo IV and singly mutated DNA gyrase among the quinolones studied. In the case of Pseudomonas aeruginosa-infected corneal ulcers, ophthalmic gatifloxacin 0.3% is at least as effective as ciprofloxacin when given less frequently. Fluorescein retention scores showed a trend favoring gatifloxacin.
Animal Protocol
Female BALB/c mice with Nocardia brasiliensis in the right hind footpad
100 mg/kg
Subcutaneous injection; 3 times a day; 30 days

*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.

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:
What is the mass of compound required to make a 10 mM stock solution in 5 ml of DMSO given that the molecular weight of the compound is 350.26 g/mol?

  • 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)
  • Click the “Calculate” button
  • The answer of 62.5 μL (0.1 ml) appears in the Volume (Start) box
