DETAILS

Description (English)
Research Area: Infection
Biological Activity:
Norfloxacin(Norxacin) 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.This mechanism can also affect mammalian cell replication.
