Product Description
Irloxacin (Pirfloxacin) is a quinolone anti-bacterial agent. Irloxacin displays greater activity under acidic conditions. Irloxacin has a good in vitro antimicrobial spectrum against both Gram-positive (Gram+) and Gram-negative (Gram-) bacteria. orally bioactive.
Irloxacin (Pirfloxacin, E-3432) is a fluorinated quinolone antibacterial agent characterized by a pyrrol-1-yl substituent at the C7 position. It is a synthetic fluoroquinolone antibiotic with broad-spectrum activity against gram-negative and gram-positive bacteria. Irloxacin shows enhanced antibacterial activity under acidic pH conditions. The CAS number is 91524-15-1. The molecular formula is C16H13FN2O3 and the molecular weight is 300.28.
Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
Targets
Irloxacin targets bacterial DNA gyrase and topoisomerase IV, the classic targets of fluoroquinolone antibiotics. These enzymes are essential for bacterial DNA replication, transcription, and repair. Inhibition of these enzymes leads to DNA damage and bacterial cell death. The compound’s enhanced activity at acidic pH is driven by its distinct C7 pyrrol-1-yl substituent.
ln Vitro
In vitro, Irloxacin has a broad antimicrobial spectrum against both Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria. It shows enhanced activity under acidic pH conditions, which is critical for studies in phagolysosomes and M. avium models. The MIC range against Staphylococcus is 0.06-1 mg/L, and the MIC50 against M. tuberculosis is 8 µg/mL. Oral bioavailability has been confirmed in preclinical studies.
ln Vivo
In vivo, Irloxacin is orally active and has been studied in preclinical models. The NOAEL in Beagle dogs is 10 mg/kg/day in a 29-week oral study. It is being studied to combat bacterial resistance and improve infection control strategies.
Enzyme Assay
The in vitro antimicrobial susceptibility assay for Irloxacin involves determining the minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) against various bacterial strains. The compound’s activity is tested at different pH levels to demonstrate its pH-dependent potency. The MIC50 against M. tuberculosis is determined using standard broth microdilution methods.
Cell Assay
In vitro cell-based assays for Irloxacin are not standard, as it is an antibacterial agent. However, its activity against intracellular bacteria may be assessed in infected cell cultures.
Animal Protocol
In vivo animal studies for Irloxacin would involve infection models in rodents or other animals. The compound would be administered orally or by injection, and bacterial load in tissues would be measured. The NOAEL of 10 mg/kg/day in Beagle dogs supports translational toxicology.
ADME/Pharmacokinetics
Pharmacokinetic properties of Irloxacin are not detailed in the provided literature. It is known to be orally bioavailable. The compound shows pH-dependent activity.
Toxicity/Toxicokinetics
No specific toxicity data for Irloxacin are available in the provided literature, aside from the NOAEL of 10 mg/kg/day in Beagle dogs. The compound is for research use only.
Additional Infomation

*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 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)
