Description

3-Methylquinoxalin-2-ol is an antimicrobial agent that exhibits a broad spectrum of activity against bacteria, fungi, and viruses. It is effective against both Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria, as well as yeast and mycobacteria. 3-Methylquinoxalin-2-ol has been shown to be efficacious in animal models of diabetic ulcers and also reduces the incidence of infection after surgery. The substance has been shown to have excellent bactericidal activity against streptococcus faecalis in the presence of dehydroascorbic acid. 3-Methylquinoxalin-2-ol inhibits protein synthesis by binding to amino groups on proteins and blocking their access to ATP or other amino acids. This mechanism may be exploited as a drug target for the treatment of bacterial infections.
