In Vitro | Terbinafine has a primary fungicidal action in vitro against most fungal pathogens, including dermatophytes, and dimorphic and filamentous fungi. Terbinafine specifically inhibits fungal ergosterol biosynthesis at the point of squalene epoxidation. The treated fungal cells rapidly accumulate tlic intermediate squalene and become deficient in the end-product of the pathway, ergosterol[1]. |
In Vivo | Terbinafine is not only active after topical application but is very effective in experimental dermatophytoses following oral administration. In fungi infected guinea-pigs, the skin temperature dropps dramatically after the fourth treatment of terbinafine[2]. |
Animal Admin | Guinea-pigs: The backs (lumbar regions) of guinea-pigs, which have been mechanically depilated, are infected with 0.1 mL Sabouraud's dextrose 2% broth containing 106 c.f.u. of Truhophyton mentagrophytes. The treatments commence 48 h post-inoculation. The test compounds (Terbinafine) are suspended in 2% tylose and Tween 80 and administered via a stomach tube once daily on 9 consecutive days, or dissolved in a mixture of polyethylene glycol 400 and etbanol and spread on the infected part ot the body in a volume of 0.4 mL with a Hrigalski spatula once daily for 1-7 consecutive days[2]. |
