Based on 2 publication(s) in Google Scholar
Rifamycin sodium (Rifamycin SV monosodium) is an orally active ansamycin antibiotic. Rifamycin sodium inhibits DNA-dependent RNA synthesis. Rifamycin sodium has antibacterial activity against Mycobacterium tuberculosis. Rifamycin sodium interferes with hepatic bile acid metabolism. Rifamycin sodium has anti-inflammatory effects. Rifamycin sodium can be used in the study of Mycobacterium tuberculosis, Bacteroides fragilis infection, and Lipopolysaccharide (HY-D1056B3)-induced inflammation.

Biological Activity
Rifamycin (10 μM; 30 s) sodium mainly inhibits sodium-independent Taurocholate (HY-N0545) uptake in short-term cultured rat hepatocytes[2].
Rifamycin (10-100 μM; 15 min) sodium effectively inhibits Oatp2-mediated Taurocholate uptake in Xenopus oocytes expressing Na+/Ntcp[2].
Rifamycin (1-100 μM; 24 h) sodium inhibits the synthesis of cytokines and chemokines from lipopolysaccharide-activated monocytes and macrophages[3].
Rifamycin sodium (0.16 μg/ml; 2 weeks of culture) inhibits the growth of M. tuberculosis and its drug-resistant mutants in TB broth containing 10% serum albumin[4].
MedChemExpress (MCE) has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.
Rifamycin (12.5-25 mg/kg; peritoneal lavage) sodium can improve the survival rate of rats with experimental intraperitoneal infection and significantly reduce the number of intraperitoneal bacteria and adhesion formation[6].
Rifamycin (5-40 mg/kg; esophageal gavage; once a day, 5 days a week; 4 weeks) sodium shortens oral treatment duration in a mouse model of Mycobacterium ulcerans disease[8].
Rifamycin (0.1 mL; intraaural administration; twice daily; 10 days) sodium does not cause hearing loss in adult or weanling rats[9].
Rifamycin (1 mg i.v. bolus followed by 4 mg i.v. infusion; 70 min) sodium interferes with three major steps of Bile acid metabolism in rats with intravenous Sodium cholate (HY-N0324A) infusion, resulting in a significant decrease in bile acid uptake and excretion[10].
Rifamycin (10-160 mg/kg; s.c.; single dose) sodium is approximately 11 times less effective than Metronidazole (HY-B0318) in a mouse Bacteroides fragilis thigh infection model[11].

Select the appropriate dissolution method based on your experimental animal and administration route.
- For the following dissolution methods, please ensure to first prepare a clear stock solution using an In Vitro approach and then sequentially add co-solvents:
- To ensure reliable experimental results, the clarified stock solution can be appropriately stored based on storage conditions. As for the working solution for In Vivo experiments, it is recommended to prepare freshly and use it on the same day.
- The percentages shown for the solvents indicate their volumetric ratio in the final prepared solution. If precipitation or phase separation occurs during preparation, heat and/or sonication can be used to aid dissolution.
