Description

Crystalline Solid4-(Aminomethyl)benzenesulfonamide acetate (Sulfamylon)is a homologue of the sulfanilamide molecule. It is not atrue sulfanilamide-type compound, as it is not inhibited byPABA. Its antibacterial action involves a mechanism thatdiffers from that of true sulfanilamide-type compounds. This compound is particularly effective against Clostridiumwelchii in topical application and was used duringWorld War II by the German army for prophylaxis ofwounds. It is not effective orally.


Mafenide acetate is a carboxylic acid.|Mafenide Acetate is the acetate salt form of mafenide, a synthetic sulfonamide analog of para-aminobenzoic acid (PABA) with topical anti-infective activity. Mafenide acetate competes with PABA for the bacterial enzyme dihydropteroate synthase, thereby preventing the incorporation of PABA into dihydrofolic acid, thereby interferes with normal folic acid metabolism. As a result, de novo synthesis of pyrimidines, which requires folate metabolites, is impeded and subsequently DNA synthesis is affected. Mafenide acetate is bacteriostatic against many gram-negative and gram-positive organisms, including Pseudomonas aeruginosa and certain strains of anaerobes.|A sulfonamide that inhibits the enzyme CARBONIC ANHYDRASE and is used as a topical anti-bacterial agent, especially in burn therapy.
