Identification
Name Proflavine
Accession Number DB01123 (APRD00535)
Type small molecule
Description 3,6-Diaminoacridine. Topical antiseptic used mainly in wound dressings. [PubChem]
Structure
Categories (*)
Molecular Weight 209.2465
Groups approved
Monoisotopic Weight 209.095297367
Pharmacology
Indication Topical antiseptic used mainly in wound dressings.
Mechanism of action Proflavine acts by interchelating DNA (intercalation), thereby disrupting DNA synthesis and leading to high levels of mutation in the copied DNA strands. This prevents bacterial reproduction.
