Application
Ciprofloxacin hydrochloride hydrate is suitable for use in research to study antibiotic resistance mechanisms. It is also used to inhibit cell proliferation and to sensitize cells to TRAIL (TNF-related apoptosis-inducing ligand) -Induced apotosis.
Biochem/physiol Actions
Ciprofloxacinis a fluoroquinolone antibiotic with broad-spectrum activity, which killsbacteria by blocking DNA gyrase and type IV topoisomerase—critical enzymes forDNA replication and transcription—leading to cell death. It is effectiveagainst a broad array of both Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria, inaddition to Mycoplasmas. While the hydrochloride form of ciprofloxacin ishighly soluble in water, ciprofloxacin itself is only sparingly soluble inaqueous solutions.
