| Bioactivity | Efinaconazole-d4 is the deuterium labeled Efinaconazole. Efinaconazole (KP-103) is a triazole antifungal agent and againsts T. mentagrophytes SM-110 and C. albicans ATCC 10231 with MICs of 0.0039 μg/mL and 0.00098 μg/mL, respectively[1]. Efinaconazole has a potent in vitro activity against fungal pathogens including dermatophytes, Candida and Malassezia species[1]. |
| Invitro | Stable heavy isotopes of hydrogen, carbon, and other elements have been incorporated into drug molecules, largely as tracers for quantitation during the drug development process. Deuteration has gained attention because of its potential to affect the pharmacokinetic and metabolic profiles of drugs[1]. |
