Bioactive small molecules are organic compounds that have a low molecular weight (900 daltons). Most pharmaceutical drugs are small molecules. Larger structures such as nucleic acids, proteins, and many polysaccharides are not small molecules.
Sulfachloropyridazine Sodium is the sodium salt of Sulfachloropyridazine, a sulfonamide antibiotic. It has been used to treat the bacteria causing urinary tract infections and is commonly used in aquaculture and animal husbandry. Sulfachloropyridazine...
