Description

Flusulfamide is effective against a wide range of bacteria and fungi. It has a synergic effect with other antibiotics, such as tetracycline and sulphonamides. Flusulfamide is used in the treatment of bacterial diseases, such as eye infections, boils, and abscesses. This antibiotic has been used for years in veterinary medicine to treat respiratory infections in cattle and pigs. Flusulfamide inhibits the growth of bacteria by interfering with the synthesis of proteins that are vital for cell division. Research has shown that this antibiotic can be used to control resistance in some bacterial strains by blocking nicotinic acetylcholine receptors (nAChR) on the surface of bacteria. The nAChR is required for bacterial growth and its inhibition prevents protein synthesis, leading to death.
Flusulfamide is also an active substance in analytical methods for detecting resistant cultivars or pathogens.
