Description:

WARNING: This product is for research use only, not for human or veterinary use.

Econazole is a broad spectrum ketoconazole-like azole based antifungal agent which is also potent against Gram positive bacteria. It is used topically in dermatomycoses as well as orally and parenterally. Econazole kills or prevents the growth of fungus or yeast by inhibiting the production of substances vital for their growth and function. Econazole interacts with 14-α demethylase, a cytochrome P-450 enzyme necessary to convert lanosterol to ergosterol. As ergosterol is an essential component of the fungal cell membrane, inhibition of its synthesis results in increased cellular permeability causing leakage of cellular contents. Econazole may also inhibit endogenous respiration, interact with membrane phospholipids, inhibit the transformation of yeasts to mycelial forms, inhibit purine uptake, and impair triglyceride and/or phospholipid biosynthesis.
