Chemistry:SPR741
From HandWiki
SPR741 is an experimental antibiotic related to Polymyxin B. It shows activity against a number of bacterial pathogens, especially Acinetobacter baumannii and Klebsiella pneumoniae, acting as an antibiotic adjuvant which disrupts the outer membrane of Gram-negative bacteria and allows other antibiotics to more effectively penetrate into the cell.[1][2][3][4]
