2. Control of Microbial Growth
Sterilizing Agents--kill everything (e.g.
heat, radiation)
Disinfectants--kill most things. Too
strong for living tissues (e.g. lysol, NH3)
Antiseptics--milder in action. Can be
used topically, but not ingested. (e.g.
alcohol, iodine)
Chemotherapeutics--can be ingested
(e.g. penicillin, sulfa drugs)

3. Medicines with anantimicrobial
activity are divided into two groups:
1 –non-selective antimicrobial agents,
causes mostdestructive effect on the
majority of microorganisms
(antiseptics and disinfectants).
2 -selective antimicrobial drugs
(chemotherapeutic agents).

4. ORIGINS OF ANTISEPTICS
Joseph Lister (1827 -1912)
Realised that deaths from operations mostly occurred
from infection contracted during the operation as a result
of unclean practices.
He started using Carbolic acid (phenol) during operations
to maintain aseptic conditions with significant
improvements.
Like Semmelweiss he initially encountered opposition,
but use of his methods by the Germans during the Franco-
Prussian war in 1870 provided his major breakthrough
and over the next 10 years, the practise of aseptic surgery
became accepted.

5. ►narrow-spectrumand effective only against a
limited variety of pathogens or broad-
spectrum, affecting many different types of
pathogens
►bactericidalif they kill the susceptible
bacteria or bacteriostaticif they inhibit the
growth of bacteria
Antimicrobials could be

6. Antiseptics and disinfectants
-a group of drugs that are able to inhibit the growth, development
or leads to death of microorganisms in the environment
surrounding the patient or on the surface of the body.
Antiseptics -(anti-against;septicas-putrid). This is a group of
medicines that are used to eliminate pathogens in the wound
(skin, mucous membranes) in the gastrointestinal tract and
urinary tract. Causes bacteriocidal or bacteriostatic effect
depending on the concentration.
Disinfectants-used for disinfection of medical instruments,
utensils, facilities, equipment, etc. Disinfection -a complex of
measures aimed at prevention of infection in the wound (in the
body as a whole) or to prevent the spread of infection.
•Draw a sharp line between antiseptics and disinfectants is not
always possible, because many substances used in low
concentrations as antiseptics, and higher -for disinfection.

7. Requirements for antiseptics
and disinfectants.
Must have a broad spectrum of action;
Rapid onset of action;
Should have a small latency period;
Should have a high activity;
Must be chemically resistant;
High availability and low cost;
Lack of local irritant or allergic effects on tissues;
Minimal absorption from the place of their application;
Low toxicity.

8. Sources of antiseptics
►Early antiseptics were probably
vegetable extracts
Many spices contain antibacterial
agents
►Essential oils extracted from
plants often have antibacterial
properties
►Lister used carbolic acid which
chemically is a solution of phenol
Phenol was originally extracted from
coal tar.
Coal tar preparations are still used
today in therapeutic soaps and
shampoos.
•To characterize the antimicrobial activity of the antiseptic
agents used phenol ratiowhich indicates action force of
the antimicrobial agent in comparison with the phenol.
•The difference between antiseptics and disinfectants -The
objectives of their application.

Anionic detergentsinclude ordinary soaps (sodium or
potassium saltsof fatty acids).
As antiseptics mainly used cationic surfactants:
benzalkonium chloride, cetylpyridinium chloride,
miramistim.
Benzalkonium chloridehas antibacterial, antiprotozoal and
spermicidal action (spermicidal effect develops in two stages:
first -the destruction of the flagellum, and then -the gap of the
sperm head, which makes it impossible to fertilization).

34. II. Synthetic chemotherapeutic
agents
Sulfonamides
Quinolones and Fluroquinolones
Nitrofuran derivatives

35. Sulfonamides
Sulfa drugs (SA) -synthetic chemotherapeutic agents,
which are derivatives of sulfanilamide, or amides of
sulfonic acid.
The first preparation of SA: Red Streptocid (1935).
Common
properties of SA:
-Sulfa nucleus;
-Mechanism of
action;
-Spectrum of
antibacterial action.

36. Classification of SA
1. Preparations with the resorptive (system) actions
which are well absorbed in the intestine, creating high
concentrations in the blood and other tissues:
short-actingdrugs (period of half of absorption less
than 10 hours are applied 3-4 times per day,
sometimes even 4-6 times a day in an amount of 4-6
g/day):
-Sulfadimezin;
-Etazol;
-Norsulfazol;
-Urosulfan.

37. Classification of SA
drugs with intermediate action(t1/2 = 10 -24 hours):
-Sulfazin;
-Sulfamethoxazole.
• long-acting(t 1/2 = 24-28 hours):
-Sulfadimetoxin;
-Sulfapiridazin;
-Sulfamonomethoxine.
extremely long-acting(t 1/2 of 48 hours):
-Sulfalen.

38. 2. Preparations of the intestinal action, which are
slowly and incompletely absorbed from the GIT, they
are use for the treatment of intestinal infections (t 1/2
<10 hours).
-Ftalazol;
-Sulgin;
-Ftazin;
3. SA for topical application (readily soluble in water
and is used topically in the eye drops for the
prevention and treatment of gonococcal eye disease
in newborns, as well as for the treatment of
conjunctivitis, blepharitis, corneal ulcers and other
pathologies of the eye).
-Sulfacil-sodium.
Classification of SA

39. Mechanism of action
Certain microbes require paraaminobenzoic
acid(PABA) to synthesize dihydrofolicacid
which is required to produce purines and
ultimately nucleic acids.
Sulfonamides, chemical analogs of PABA, are
competitive inhibitors of dihydropteroate
synthetase.
Sulfonamides therefore are reversible inhibitors
of folic acid synthesis and bacteriostaticnot
bacteriocidal.

40. Mechanism of action

41. Conditions necessary for the manifestation of
the antibacterial action of the SA:
-microorganisms can use SA instead of PABA in the case when
the concentration of the drug in tissues in 2000-5000
times higherthan the concentration of PABA;
-SA efficiency sharply decreases in the presence of pus,
blood and tissue breakdownproducts due to the PABA high
concentration in these products;
-SA have antimicrobial action only against those
microorganisms which are themselves synthesized DHFA;
-In SA resistant microorganisms observed increased synthesis
of PABA;
-The use of the SA in low concentrationscontributes to
the formation of resistant strains of microorganisms and leads
to inefficiency of the SA.

42. SA antimicrobial spectrum
Currently used SA have broad spectrum, they
inhibit gram-positive and gram-negative
bacteria:Streptococcus pneumoniae, beta-
haemolytic streptococci,E. coli, klebciella,
shigella, salmonella, enterobacter, gonococci,
meningococci, and pneumococci;
Nocardia,
Chlamidia,
Protozoa (toxoplasmaand malarial plasmodia).

43. SA pharmacokinetics
 Absorption.Slightly in the stomach and mainly in
the small intestine. Within 30 minutes after the
administration of the SA are found in urine. The
bioavailability is 70-90%.
 Biotransport.Reversibly bind to serum albumin,
an agent which is directly proportional to the degree
of hydrophobicity of the molecule of the drug. SA can
displace from its association another protein drugs,
particularly NSAIDs and endogenous substances
(bilirubin).
 Distribution.Pass through the blood-tissue,
placenta and blood-brain barriers. Also passes into
breast milk.

44. Biotransformation.
Phase I reactions-acetylation, hydrogen substitution in
the group NH2-acetic acid residue, thereby forming
acetylated derivatives which do not have antimicrobial
activity in an acidic medium and form crystals that
disrupts the function of the kidney (crystalluria).
Reaction Phase II–formation of double binding with
glucuronic acid.
Excretion.Advantageously, urine, saliva, to a lesser
extent and intestinal contents, but also breast milk.
Are displayed in the form of metabolites and unchanged.
SA pharmacokinetics

45. Clinical uses of SA
Infections of urinary tract
GIT infections
Respiratory tract infection
Pharingitis, gingivitis
Chlamidial infections
Wounds, burns
Toxoplasmosis
Malaria
For systemic treatment cotrimoxazoleis more often
used nowadays
Sufonamides are used for prevention of infections.

46. Side effects of sulfonamides
-occur in 3 -5% of patients and more frequently in children and the
elderly. Complications due to overdose, and patients with
hypersensitivity to the SA.
1.The central nervous system: nausea, vomiting, dizziness, headache
(central genesis), depression, increased fatigue.
2.Blood:leukopenia, thrombocytopenia, agranulocytosis,
methemoglobinemia, hemolytic anemia.
3. Kidneys:oliguria, proteinuria, hematuria, crystalluria.
4. Allergic reactions:fever, itching, rash, pain in the joints.
Prevention of crystalluria:
-Drink plenty of liquids (3-5 liters per day);
-drink alkaline mineral water or milk during SA using.
Contraindications: Toxic and allergic reactions to drugs.

47. 1 -Combination with 5-aminosalicylic acid:
SALAZOSULFOPIRIDIN
SALAZOPIRIDAZIN
2 -combined with Trimethoprim:
Biseptol (trimethoprim + sulfamethoxazole)
Sulfaton (trimethoprim + sulfadimezin)
Combined sulfa drugs

48. Combined sulfa drugs
(BISEPTOLUM).
The mechanism of
action of the combined
drug on the principle of
combined violations
of nucleic acid
synthesis in two
points:
1. at the level of DHFA
inclusion in PABA
synthesis;
2. at the level of THFA
formation from DHFA.

49. Combined sulfa drugs
(BISEPTOLUM) .
The second (additional) mechanism is achieved by
use of Trimethoprim (TMP) -antimalarial drug.
TMP has a similar antimicrobial activity with the SA
and is superior in activity in the 20-100 times. The
most justifiable is a combination of TMP with
sulfamethoxazole in the ratio of 1: 5.
Thus, the combined preparation ‘Biseptol-480’
created, which is a combination of TMP with
sulfamethoxazole 1: 5 (80 mg + 400 mg).
This combination has a bactericidal effect, although
each of the components exhibits -bacteriostatic.

50. Features of combined SA drugs
-Effective even in the case of resistance to SA;
-Resistance to the combined drugs develops
slowly;
Side effects:
