Antivirali

Stavudine is an antiviral, reverse transcriptase inhibitor that is used to treat HIV/AIDS. It belongs to the group of nucleoside analogues of thymidine that is converted into stavudine monophosphate. Stavudine works by inhibiting viral replication by preventing the incorporation of viral dNTPs into the growing DNA chain, thus blocking DNA synthesis.

Ritonavir is a HIV protease inhibitor. It has an anti-retroviral activity as it inhibits the protease enzymes specific of both HIV-1 and HIV-2 and has been shown to be effective in controlling virus replication in humans and animals. Ritonavir works by preventing the HIV viral protease enzyme from cleaving the structural and replicative proteins produced by HIV genes such as gag and pol.

Anti-viral; thymidine analogue; DNA plymerase inhibitor

Inhibitor of HIV-1 integrase strand transfer; antiviral

Atazanavir is an antiviral protease inhibitor, used in the anti-retroviral therapy of adult and sometimes paediatric patients infected with HIV. This drug inhibits the processing of viral Gag and Gag-pol polyproteins in HIV-1 infected cells by binding to the HIV-1 protease active site.

Non-nucleoside inhibitor of reverse transcriptase; anti-viral

HIV-1 Integrase Inhibitor is an antiretroviral compound with a mode of action that blocks the viral enzyme integrase, preventing the integration of viral DNA into the host genome. It is used for the treatment of HIV infection.

Darunavir is a HIV-1 protease inhibitor used orally in the treatment of patients with multi-drug resistant HIV-1 infection (Ghosh, 2007). It has also been shown to be effective against other infectious diseases such as hepatitis C virus and SARS coronavirus. Metabolized by cytochrome P450 3A (CYP3A) isoenzymes, darunavir is often administered together with ritonavir that prolongs its bioavaiability, giving a terminal elimination half-life (t1/2) of 15 hours (Back, 2008). The effect of darunavir on natural compounds such as matrix proteins and toll-like receptor activity has also been studied via high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) experiments.

Abacavir sulfate is an antiviral drug that belongs to the class of HIV protease inhibitors. It is used in combination with other antiretroviral drugs to treat HIV-1 infection. Abacavir sulfate inhibits viral replication by blocking the activity of HIV-1 protease, which is necessary for the production of new virus particles.
Abacavir sulfate is part of our Bio-X ™ Range. These products are aimed at life science researchers who need high quality ready to use products for assay development, screening or other R&D work. With a solubility datasheet and convenient vials, all of our Bio-X ™ products are in stock across our global warehouses for rapid delivery and ease of use.

Raltegravir is an antiretroviral agent, which is a synthetic integrase inhibitor sourced from pharmaceutical research. Its mode of action involves the inhibition of the HIV-1 integrase enzyme, which is essential for the viral replication process. By blocking the strand transfer step of the integration of viral DNA into the host cell genome, Raltegravir prevents the proliferation of the virus within the host.
