Piroctone

Catalog No.: A27491
Antimicrobial Agent
Piroctone is a potent hydroxypyridone antimicrobial agent primarily targeting fungal pathogens, particularly effective against Candida species. It inhibits hyphal induction in Candida albicans, contributing to its antifungal properties. Additionally, Piroctone efficiently chelates intracellular iron, inducing cytotoxic effects in neuroblastoma cells. This compound is applicable in antimicrobial research and studies focusing on neuroblastoma.
