| Bioactivity | Amphotericin X1 is an 13-O-methyl derivative of Amphotericin B with good antifungal activity. Amphotericin X1 inhibits Candida albicans 33/079, C.parapsilosis 937A, Cryptococcus neoformans 451, Aspergillus niger 57A and A.fumigatus with MIC values of 1 μg/mL, 8 μg/mL, 1 μg/mL, 2 μg/mL and 2 μg/mL, respectively[1]. |
| Target | MIC: 1 μg/mL (Candida albicans 33/079), 8 μg/mL (C.parapsilosis 937A), 1 μg/mL (Cryptococcus neoformans 451), 2 μg/mL (Aspergillus niger 57A) and 2 μg/mL (A.fumigatus) |
| Invitro | Amphotericin X1 (compound 4) shows interesting antifungal activity combined with a pronounced reduction in haemolytic activity (EH50 of 42 μg/mL) against mammalianerythrocytes in vitro[1]. |
