Description

Oxolinic acid is a synthetic compound that is used as an antimicrobial agent. It inhibits the growth of bacteria by inhibiting the enzyme DNA gyrase, which is required for bacterial cell division. Oxolinic acid has been shown to be effective against tetracycline-resistant organisms, such as methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) and Streptococcus pneumoniae. This compound also has inhibitory properties on human serum and wastewater treatment processes.
