Documented Uses

• Derivatives of oxazolidin-2-one. They represent an important class of synthetic antibiotic agents. [ChemIDplus]
• Substances that prevent infectious agents or organisms from spreading or kill infectious agents in order to prevent the spread of infection.
• Compounds which inhibit the synthesis of proteins. They are usually ANTI-BACTERIAL AGENTS or toxins. Mechanism of the action of inhibition includes the interruption of peptide-chain elongation, the blocking the A site of ribosomes, the misreading of the genetic code or the prevention of the attachment of oligosaccharide side chains to glycoproteins.
