Product Data:
Biological target: Nalidixic acid sodium salt, a quinolone antibiotic, is effective against both gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria.
In vitro activity: Sodium nalidixate inhibited the cell growth and division of several respiratory competent strains of Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Reference: Mol Gen Genet. 1976 Jul 5;146(1):95-100. https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/785214/
In vivo activity: Nalidixic acid preferentially suppressed growth in soft agar of transformed Balb/3T3 mouse cells induced by methylcholanthrene. Nalidixic acid suppressed growth in soft agar of NIH/3T3 mouse cells transformed by an activated c-Ha-ras, without affecting the amount of ras p21 proteins as detected by an immunoblotting analysis using a monoclonal antibody.
