Description
Ethylhydrocupreine (Optochin) is a quinine derivate with antimicrobial activity against S. pneumoniae. Ethylhydrocupreine also possesses antimalarial activity against Plasmodium falciparum, with an IC50 of 25.75 nM. Ethylhydrocupreine is a Gallus gallus taste 2 receptors (ggTas2r1, ggTas2r2 and ggTas2r7) agonist.

How to use
In Vitro:
The mutation rate to Ethylhydrocupreine (Optochin) resistance is estimated using fluctuation analysis in three capsulated S. pneumoniae strains (S. pneumoniae D39 NCTC 7466, S. pneumoniae R6 ATCC BAA-255 and S. pneumoniae ATCC 49619). The exposure to subinhibitory concentrations of penicillin increased the mutation rate (expressed as mutation per cell division) to Ethylhydrocupreine (Optochin) resistance between 2.1- and 3.1-fold for all three strains studied.
In Vivo:
The injection of 1 cc. of a 24 hour dextrose blood broth culture of virulent Type I pneumococci into the right pleural cavity of guinea pigs produces acute suppurative pleuritis on both sides associated with suppurative pericarditis. The injection of 1 cc. of 1:500 solutions of Ethylhydrocupreine hydrochloride into each pleural cavity of guinea pigs at varying intervals up to 24 hours after pleural infection has usually shown a marked curative influence. Similar results are observed with dogs.
