Mupirocin (BRL-4910A, Pseudomonate) Calcium (0-100 μM; 48 h) exhibits antibacterial action against specific Gram-negative bacteria, Streptococcus, and Staphylococcus, with MIC values ranging from 0.06-0.25 μg/mL (MIC50 = 0.12 μg/mL, MIC90 = 0.25 μg/mL)[1]. Since human serum proteins and mugirocin calcium are substantially bound (95% bound), mugirocin calcium activity is inhibited when human serum is present [1]. According to research, mupirocin calcium inhibits bacterial protein and RNA production by reversibly blocking isoleucyl transfer RNA [2]. Mupirocin calcium (2% ointment) can decrease pro-inflammatory cytokine levels (IL-1β and IL-17), decrease tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) expression, and boost VEGF (vascular endothelial growth factor) expression [4]. With MICs of 0.25, 1.26, and 1.59 mg/L, muticipin cal may suppress the growth of S. epidermidis ATCC 12228, MR (S. epidermidis (Se56-99), and VIR (S. epidermidis (Se43-98)). Note: Minimum inhibitory concentration, or MIC.

After oral and parenteral administration, MRSA: Methicillin-Resistant Staphylococcus Aureus Mupirocin (BRL-4910A, Pseudomonic acid) Calcium is well absorbed; however, serum antibiotic concentrations are short-lived because of extensive degradation to the antibacterial inactive metabolite Mupirocin A [1]. During topical treatment, mugirocin calcium (2% ointment; twice daily; 3-6 days) lowers the overall bacterial load in lesions [3]. MRSA-infected mice's pressure ulcers are healed after four days of topical application of 2% mupirocin calcium ointment [4]. The use of mupirocin calcium (100 mg/mL; subcutaneous injection; 7 days) has been shown to be protective against Staphylococcus epidermidis-induced vascular prosthetic graft infections [5].

Solubility (In Vivo) |
Note: Listed below are some common formulations that may be used to formulate products with low water solubility (e.g. < 1 mg/mL), you may test these formulations using a minute amount of products to avoid loss of samples.
Injection Formulations
Injection Formulation 1: DMSO : Tween 80: Saline = 10 : 5 : 85 (i.e. 100 μL DMSO stock solution → 50 μL Tween 80 → 850 μL Saline)(e.g. IP/IV/IM/SC) *Preparation of saline: Dissolve 0.9 g of sodium chloride in 100 mL ddH ₂ O to obtain a clear solution. Injection Formulation 2: DMSO : PEG300 :Tween 80 : Saline = 10 : 40 : 5 : 45 (i.e. 100 μL DMSO → 400 μLPEG300 → 50 μL Tween 80 → 450 μL Saline) Injection Formulation 3: DMSO : Corn oil = 10 : 90 (i.e. 100 μL DMSO → 900 μL Corn oil) Example: Take the Injection Formulation 3 (DMSO : Corn oil = 10 : 90) as an example, if 1 mL of 2.5 mg/mL working solution is to be prepared, you can take 100 μL 25 mg/mL DMSO stock solution and add to 900 μL corn oil, mix well to obtain a clear or suspension solution (2.5 mg/mL, ready for use in animals).

*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.
