Description of Actagardin

Actagardin is a tetracyclic antibiotic.

Actagardin is a tetracyclic antibiotic produced by several species of Actinoplanes.

In vitro: During the repeated fermentations of actagardin, two new compounds, named D and E, were isolated. Compound D was found to be twice as active as actagardin against Streptococcus pyogenes C 203 and four times more active than actagardin against Staphylococcus aureus ATCC 6538, S. pneumoniae UC 41, and S. aureus TOUR in the in-vitro tests [1].

In vivo: Animal study showed that compound D was also more effective than the parent compound actagardin against experimental infections in mice with either S. pyogenes C 203 or S. aureus TOUR, after sc administration. However, compound D was ineffective at doses up to 150 mg/kg when given orally to mice infected with S. pyogenes C 203. Moreover, compound D (LD50 1,250 mg/kg, mice, ip) was about 2.5 times more toxic than actagardine (3,310 mg/kg). In addition, compound E showed practically no in vitro activity up to 50 μg/ml against the tested organisms [1].

Clinical trial: So far, no clinical study has been conducted.

Calculation results:

Working concentration: mg/ml;

Method for preparing DMSO master liquid: mg drug pre-dissolved in μL DMSO ( Master liquid concentration mg/mL, Please contact us first if the concentration exceeds the DMSO solubility of the batch of drug. )

Method for preparing in vivo formulation: Take μL DMSO master liquid, next addμL PEG300, mix and clarify, next addμL Tween 80, mix and clarify, next add μL ddH2O, mix and clarify.

Method for preparing in vivo formulation: Take μL DMSO master liquid, next add μL Corn oil, mix and clarify.

Note: 1. Please make sure the liquid is clear before adding the next solvent.
2. Be sure to add the solvent(s) in order. You must ensure that the solution obtained, in the previous addition, is a clear solution before proceeding to add the next solvent. Physical methods such as vortex, ultrasound or hot water bath can be used to aid dissolving.
3. All of the above co-solvents are available for purchase on the GlpBio website.
