Antifungal Compound Library

Description: The high rates of morbidity and mortality caused by fungal infections are associated with the current limited antifungal arsenal and the high toxicity of the compounds. Additionally, identifying novel drug targets is challenging because there are many similarities between fungal and human cells. The most common antifungal targets include fungal RNA synthesis and cell wall and membrane components, though new antifungal targets are being investigated. Nonetheless, fungi have developed resistance mechanisms, such as overexpression of efflux pump proteins, overexpression and changes in drug targets and biofilm formation, emphasizing the importance of discovering new antifungal drugs and therapies. Due to the limited antifungal arsenal, researchers have sought to improve treatment via different approaches, such as the combination of antifungal drugs, development of new formulations for antifungal agents and modifications to the chemical structures of traditional antifungals, etc.

Layout: 96-well storage tube or 96-well plate: 1st and 12th column are left empty.384-well plate: the first two columns and the last two columns are left empty.Compounds with different concentrations or dissolved in different solvents will be put on separate plates.This way of layout may increase the number of plates because there could be three solvents and three concentrations. If you have other requirements, please let us know.

Container: 96- or 384-well Plate with Peelable Foil Seal; 96-well Format Sample Storage Tube With Screw Cap and Optional 2D Barcode
