Cat. No.: HY-B1118 Purity: 99.87%
SDS COA Handling Instructions

Secnidazole (RP-14539) is an orally active azole antibiotic and a imidazole mitigator of Serratia marcescens virulence. Secnidazole, as an analog of acylhomoserine lactones, effectively inhibits QS resulting in the attenuation of Pseudomonas aeruginosa pathogenesis. Secnidazole has antimicrobial activity against many anaerobic Gram-negative and Gram-positive bacterial species in vitro. Secnidazole can be used for the research of various diseases, such as amoebiasis and giardiasis, and bacterial vaginitis.

In Vitro

Secnidazole (RP-14539) (0-5000 μM; 5 or 10 min) inhibits CYP2C19 and CYP3A4, with IC50 values of 3873 μM and 3722 μM, respectively[2].
Secnidazole (0-5000 μM; 5 or 10 min) does not exhibit time-dependent inhibition[2].
Secnidazole (0-5000 μM; 5 or 10 min) has an apparent IC50 value of 503 μM for direct inhibition of human ALDH2[2].
Secnidazole (0-5000 μM; 5 or 10 min) has concentration-dependent inhibition at higher concentration with some of the CYP isoforms notably CYP2A6, CYP2B6, and CYP2D6[2].
Secnidazole (10 μL; 20 h; the secnidazole solution was two-fold serially diluted using Mueller–Hinton broth to obtain dilutions ranging from 80 to 0.3125 mg/mL) inhibits S.marcescens growth with a MIC50 value of 10 mg/mL[3].

Cell Line: S.marcescens
Concentration: 10 μL (the secnidazole solution was two-fold serially diluted using Mueller–Hinton broth to obtain dilutions ranging from 80 to 0.3125 mg/mL)
Incubation Time: 20 h
Result: Had no inhibitory effect on S.marcescens growth at 2 mg/mL (equivalent to 1/5 MIC).
In Vivo

Secnidazole (100 μL; ip.; for 5 days) has protective activity against S.marcescens pathogenesis and can diminish its pathogenesis in mice[3].

Help & FAQs
  • Do most proteins show cross-species activity?

    Species cross-reactivity must be investigated individually for each product. Many human cytokines will produce a nice response in mouse cell lines, and many mouse proteins will show activity on human cells. Other proteins may have a lower specific activity when used in the opposite species.
