Flumequine

Catalog No. T1060   CAS 42835-25-6
Synonyms: Flumigal, R-802

Flumequine (R-802) is a broad-spectrum antibiotic that is active against both Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria. It functions by inhibiting DNA gyrase, a type II topoisomerase, and topoisomerase IV, enzymes necessary to separate bacterial DNA, thereby inhibiting cell division.

In vitro At a concentration of 100 mg/L, Flumequine reduced the average length of roots, hypocotyls, and cotyledons in the water plant Lythrum salicaria L., and diminished the count of secondary roots. After oral administration of 10 mg/kg Flumequine, the total clearance rates were 0.024 L/h.kg (cod) and 0.14 L/h.kg (dab), with elimination half-lives (t1/2 λ z) of 75 hours (cod) and 31 hours (dab). The bioavailability of Flumequine following oral administration was measured at 65% (cod) and 41% (dab). Dose-dependent DNA damage in the stomach, colon, and bladder of adult mice was observed after oral administration of 4000 ppm Flumequine for 3 hours instead of 24 hours. In Atlantic salmon, the stable apparent volume of distribution was 3.5 L/kg after intravenous administration of Flumequine, with an elimination half-life (t 1/2) of 22.8 hours, and the area under the plasma drug concentration-time curve (AUC) was 140 µg×hour/mL.
In vivo Flumequine demonstrates a minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) ranging from 0.06 μg/mL to 32 μg/mL across 12 clinically isolated Salmonella strains. The high E(max) values for most resistant strains, reaching up to 16, indicate its significant contribution to combating resistant phenotypes. Accumulation studies have shown that these high E(max) values correlate with lower levels of accumulation. Flumequine's inhibition of eukaryotic topoisomerase II, associated with the double-stranded DNA breakage reaction, is the underlying cause for its effect on bacterial gyrase, suggesting a strong correlation between its action on topoisomerase II and the bacterial gyrase inhibition.

Molarity Calculator allows you to calculate the

  • Mass of a compound required to prepare a solution of known volume and concentration
  • Volume of solution required to dissolve a compound of known mass to a desired concentration
  • Concentration of a solution resulting from a known mass of compound in a specific volume
See Example

An example of a molarity calculation using the molarity calculator
What is the mass of compound required to make a 10 mM stock solution in 10 ml of water given that the molecular weight of the compound is 197.13 g/mol?
Enter 197.13 into the Molecular Weight (MW) box
Enter 10 into the Concentration box and select the correct unit (millimolar)
Enter 10 into the Volume box and select the correct unit (milliliter)
Press calculate
The answer of 19.713 mg appears in the Mass box

Calculate the dilution required to prepare a stock solution
The dilution calculator is a useful tool which allows you to calculate how to dilute a stock solution of known concentration. Enter C1, C2 & V2 to calculate V1.

See Example

An example of a dilution calculation using the Tocris dilution calculator
What volume of a given 10 mM stock solution is required to make 20ml of a 50 μM solution?
Using the equation C1V1 = C2V2, where C1=10 mM, C2=50 μM, V2=20 ml and V1 is the unknown:
Enter 10 into the Concentration (start) box and select the correct unit (millimolar)
Enter 50 into the Concentration (final) box and select the correct unit (micromolar)
Enter 20 into the Volume (final) box and select the correct unit (milliliter)
Press calculate
The answer of 100 microliter (0.1 ml) appears in the Volume (start) box
