Product Description


Mechanism of Action

Chlorosal (salicylanilide derivative) is an antimicrobial agent that disrupts bacterial oxidative phosphorylation. By uncoupling electron-transport chains, it collapses proton gradients across microbial membranes, inhibiting ATP synthesis and causing cell death. It shows strong activity against gram-positive bacteria and some fungi.

Benefits and Advantages

Used in mitochondrial‑uncoupling research, antimicrobial‑resistance modelling, oxidative‑stress assays, membrane‑potential measurements and salicylanilide SAR investigations.

Side Effects and Risks

Risks include dermal irritation, hepatotoxicity at systemic exposure, mitochondrial toxicity in mammalian cells and environmental persistence. Handle with uncoupler‑class compound precautions.
