| 摘要 |
A method of inhibiting the growth of a bacterial species in a human or non-human vertebrate employs the antimicrobial (i.e., antibiotic) properties of 5-aminosalicylates. These antimicrobial properties are also employed in an antimicrobial method of inhibiting the growth of a bacterial species in a foodstuff and in foodstuffs containing a 5-aminosalicylate compound. Pharmaceutical compositions, foodstuffs, food containers, food-handling implements, cleansers, polishes, paints, sprays, soaps, or detergents comprise 5-aminosalicylate compounds, such as mesalamine, sulphasalazine, olsalazine, ipsalazine, salicylazobenzoic acid, balsalazide, or conjugated bile acids, including ursodeoxycholic acid-5-aminosalicylic acid. The present pharmaceutical compositions can be formulated for ingestive, colonic, or topical non-systemic delivery systems or for any systemic delivery systems. Formulation can be for human or veterinary administration. Using the method and pharmaceutical preparations the growth of bacterial species, such as Clostridium perfringens, Clostridium difficile, Clostridium botulinum, and Clostridium tetani can be inhibited.
