MedKoo Cat#: 414711 | Name: Flurithromycin

Description:

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

Flurithromycin is a fluorinated semisynthetic macrolide antibiotic derived from erythromycin A, optimized for enhanced acid stability and tissue penetration. It binds the 50S ribosomal subunit at domain V of 23S rRNA, inhibiting peptidyl transferase and blocking protein elongation. Flurithromycin shows potent bioactivity against Gram-positive bacteria and select Gram-negative species, with improved MICs against erythromycin-resistant strains.
