Fluoroquinolones as potential photochemotherapeutic agents: covalent addition to guanosine monophosphate.
The triplet aryl cation photochemically generated from fluoroquinolones bearing a fluoro atom at position 8 attacks guanosine monophosphate (k(r) > 10(9) M(-1)s(-1)) and forms covalent adducts. The reaction is a model for the implementation of oxygen-independent photochemotherapy.
متن کاملAntimicrobial Peptides as Infection Imaging Agents: Better Than Radiolabeled Antibiotics
Nuclear medicine imaging techniques offer whole body imaging for localization of number and site of infective foci inspite of limitation of spatial resolution. The innate human immune system contains a large member of important elements including antimicrobial peptides to combat any form of infection. However, development of antibiotics against bacteria progressed rapidly and gained popularity ...

متن کاملFreeze-dried cold kit for preparation of 99mtc-ciprofloxacin as an infection imaging agent
Introduction: Radiolabeled antibiotics are being used for the specific diagnosis of infection by exploiting their specific binding properties to the bacterial components, thereby making it possible to differentiate infection from sterile lesions. The aim of this work was to prepare and evaluate a freeze-dried kit of ciprofloxacin designed for the labeling with ...
متن کاملApplication of Electrochemical Methods for Analysis of Fluoroquinolones Antibacterial Agents and Fluoroquinolones-DNA Interactions
This mini review describes the results regarding the voltammetric determination of micromolar, submicromolar and nanomolar concentrations of various fluoroquinolones antibacterial agents using both traditional hanging mercury drop electrode, carbon paste electrode, glassy carbon paste electrode and chemically modified electrodes. We concentrate on the interaction of quinolones with DNA in solut...
