Colistin sulfate, also known as Polymyxin E sulfate, is an antibiotic belonging to the polypeptide class. It is a white to off-white, water-soluble powder with potent antibacterial activity.

 

1. Medical Use: Colistin sulfate is primarily used to treat infections caused by Gram-negative bacteria, particularly in cases where other antibiotics have failed. It is administered via injection, either intramuscularly or intravenously.
2. Veterinary Medicine: It is also used in veterinary medicine to treat similar infections in animals, such as livestock and pets.
3. Research: In scientific research, colistin sulfate is employed to study bacterial resistance mechanisms and the effects of antibiotics on bacterial growth.

1. Antibacterial Activity: Colistin sulfate exhibits strong antibacterial activity against most Gram-negative bacteria, including Escherichia coli, Salmonella, Shigella, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, and others. It works by binding to the lipopolysaccharide and phospholipids in the outer membrane of Gram-negative bacteria, disrupting their structure and leading to cell death.
2. Narrow Spectrum: Unlike some broad-spectrum antibiotics, colistin sulfate has a narrow spectrum of activity, targeting specific Gram-negative bacteria. This reduces the risk of disrupting the normal balance of microbial flora in the body.
3. Last Resort Antibiotic: Due to the increasing incidence of multidrug-resistant bacteria, colistin sulfate is often used as a last resort antibiotic when other treatments have failed. However, its use should be carefully monitored to prevent the development of further resistance.
