Rifamycin

Rifamycin (Rifamycin SV) is an orally active ansamycin antibiotic. Rifamycin inhibits DNA-dependent RNA synthesis. Rifamycin has antibacterial activity against Mycobacterium tuberculosis. Rifamycin interferes with hepatic bile acid metabolism. Rifamycin has anti-inflammatory effects. Rifamycin can be used in the study of Mycobacterium tuberculosis, Bacteroides fragilis infection, and Lipopolysaccharide -induced inflammation[1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11].
