Biological Activity
Oxyclozanide is a salicylanilide anthelmintic agent that acts as an uncoupler of mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation. It disrupts the proton gradient across the inner mitochondrial membrane, thereby inhibiting ATP synthesis and impairing cellular energy metabolism. This loss of mitochondrial membrane potential leads to downstream disruption of cellular homeostasis and anti-parasitic activity.

Q: Why does a DMSO stock precipitate in media/saline?
A: It is caused by unheated aqueous media (supersaturation), local solvent shock, or incorrect mixing sequence.
How to fix it?
- Preheat media/saline to 37°C.
- Mix rapidly (pipette/vortex) upon addition.
- For complex mixes, always add the aqueous phase last.
- Re-dissolve minor precipitates with a 37°C water bath and sonication (≤30 min).
