| Targets |
Phthalylsulfathiazole targets bacterial enzymes involved in folate synthesis. As a sulfonamide antibiotic, it acts as a competitive inhibitor of the enzyme dihydropteroate synthase, which is essential for the synthesis of folic acid in bacteria. By inhibiting folate synthesis, it prevents bacterial growth and replication. Its mechanism is bacteriostatic rather than bactericidal. It primarily targets gram-negative bacteria within the gastrointestinal tract.
|
|---|---|
| ln Vitro |
Phthalylsulfathiazole demonstrates antibacterial activity in vitro against a range of gram-negative bacteria. Its activity is assessed by standard antimicrobial susceptibility testing methods. As a sulfonamide, it is bacteriostatic, inhibiting bacterial growth by blocking folate synthesis. Its activity is primarily localized to the gastrointestinal tract due to its poor systemic absorption. Specific MIC values are available in the literature.
|
| ln Vivo |
Phthalylsulfathiazole is used clinically for the treatment of intestinal infections including dysentery, colitis, and gastroenteritis. It is also used in intestinal surgery to prevent infection. As it is poorly absorbed from the gastrointestinal tract, it acts locally in the gut. Its in vivo efficacy has been established through clinical use. It is administered orally.
|
| Enzyme Assay |
Phthalylsulfathiazole does not have established receptor binding assay protocols. Its antibacterial activity is assessed by standard antimicrobial susceptibility testing methods (broth microdilution or agar diffusion). Physical properties: molecular weight 403.43 g/mol; molecular formula C17H13N3O5S2; appearance: white or yellowish-white crystalline powder; melting point: 272-277°C (dec); solubility: practically insoluble in water, freely soluble in dimethylformamide, slightly soluble in acetone and ethanol; storage: keep in dark place, sealed in dry, room temperature.
|
| Cell Assay |
Cellular antibacterial activity is evaluated in bacterial cultures using standard microbiological methods. Broth microdilution assays are performed in 96-well plates with appropriate media (e.g., Mueller-Hinton broth). Bacterial strains are cultured to logarithmic phase and diluted to a standard inoculum. Phthalylsulfathiazole is serially diluted and added to wells. Plates are incubated at 35°C for 16-20 hours. MIC (minimum inhibitory concentration) values are determined as the lowest concentration causing complete inhibition of visible growth. Each experiment includes quality control strains and appropriate controls.
|
| Animal Protocol |
In vivo efficacy is evaluated in animal models of intestinal infection. Phthalylsulfathiazole is administered orally at doses determined by preclinical studies. Bacterial burden in the gastrointestinal tract is quantified by CFU plating. Clinical symptoms (diarrhea, weight loss) are monitored. Sample sizes typically range from 6-10 animals per group. Clinical studies have been conducted for the treatment of dysentery, colitis, and gastroenteritis.
|
| ADME/Pharmacokinetics |
Phthalylsulfathiazole has a molecular weight of 403.43 g/mol and a molecular formula of C17H13N3O5S2. Melting point: 272-277°C (dec). Solubility: practically insoluble in water, freely soluble in dimethylformamide, slightly soluble in acetone and ethanol. Storage: keep in dark place, sealed in dry, room temperature. As a poorly absorbed antibiotic, it acts locally in the gastrointestinal tract with minimal systemic absorption.
|
| Toxicity/Toxicokinetics |
Phthalylsulfathiazole is generally well-tolerated at therapeutic doses. Common adverse effects may include gastrointestinal disturbances, allergic reactions, and rash. As a sulfonamide, it is contraindicated in patients with sulfonamide hypersensitivity. Standard toxicology studies have demonstrated an acceptable safety profile for its approved uses. It is approved for clinical use in many countries for intestinal infections.
