Biological target:
Amorolfine HCl is an antifungal reagent.
In vitro activity:
Amorolfine was more effective than fluconazole and bifonazole against microconidia and chlamydospores and was slightly more potent against chlamydospores and blastospores than terbinafine after 4 days of incubation and at concentrations of ≥10 μg ml(-1). Reference: Mycoses. 2015 Oct;58(10):610-9. https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/26334024/
In vivo activity:
Voriconazole and amorolfine exhibit synergistic activity against infections caused by Fusarium spp., indicating that they may represent an effective approach to antifungal disease treatment. In isolation, amorolfine and voriconazole exhibited MIC values ranging from 4 to 16 μg/mL and 2 to 8 μg/mL, respectively. However, these MIC values fell to 1-2 μg/mL and 0.5-2 μg/mL, respectively, when amorolfine and voriconazole were administered in combination.

Note: There can be variations in solubility for the same chemical from different vendors or different batches from the same vendor. The following factors can affect the solubility of the same chemical: solvent used for crystallization, residual solvent content, polymorphism, salt versus free form, degree of hydration, solvent temperature. Please use the solubility data as a reference only. Warming and sonication will facilitate dissolving. Still have questions? Please contact our Technical Support scientists.
