About Taurolidine:
The results showed that Taurolidine has certain efficacy against mixed infection with Escherichia coli and Salmonella,its external use medicine can be used in sepsis.
Taurolidine is a broad-spectrum antibiotic and has been used to treat infectious diseases in clinics.In recent years,it is reported that Taurolidine has the anticancer activities. Although the mechanism has not completely known,the present research results show that Taurolidine's anti-tumor effects may be achieved by enhancing apoptosis,inhibiting angiogenesis and tumor adherence,down-regulating pro-inflammatory cytokine levels,and stimulating the immune system in response to surgically.
