Octenidine is a potent antibacterial agent, possessing activity against multidrug-resistant Gram-negative pathogens. Octenidine can inhibit the expression of biofilm genes and destroy the formation of biofilms.

At equivalent molar concentrations, both the salt and free forms of a compound exhibit comparable biological activity. Nevertheless, the salt form (Octenidine dihydrochloride) usually boasts enhanced water solubility and stability.

Description

Octenidine is a potent antibacterial agent, possessing activity against multidrug-resistant Gram-negative pathogens. Octenidine can inhibit the expression of biofilm genes and destroy the formation of biofilms[1][3].

In Vitro

Octenidine has antimicrobial activity against multidrug-resistant Gram-negative pathogens[1].

Escherichia coli Pseudomonas aeruginosa

In Vivo

Octenidine reduces bacterial counts on mice wounds and inhibit meticillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA)[3].

MedChemExpress (MCE) has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.

Animal Model: Mice (a six-millimetre punch full-thickness wound was inoculated with MRSA suspension)[3]
Dosage:
Administration: Administrated once 24 hours post-wounding
Result: Accelerated healing and reduced by >3.6 log cfu/g bacterial counts on the wounds relative to the PBS-treated control.
Exhibited lower burden of the inflammatory cells, more mature collagen fibres and well-defined epithelialisation.
Inhibited the expression of MRSA and its biofilm genes by nearly 100%.

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.
