Bioactivity | Sulfadimethoxine 1000 μg/mL in methanol (Sulphadimethoxine 1000 μg/mL in methanol) is a sulfonamide antibiotic that inhibits the enzyme dihydropteroate synthase, thereby blocking dihydrofolic acid synthesis and disrupting folic acid production in prokaryotic organisms. Its antimicrobial activity extends to both Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria, as well as Chlamydia. Resistance to this compound may arise through alterations in dihydropteroate synthase or the activation of alternative pathways for folic acid synthesis. |
