NCIt synonyms : Triclorocarbanilide; Carbanilide, 3,4,4'-trichloro-; 3,4,4'-Trichlorodiphenylurea; N-(4-Chlorophenyl)-N'-(3,4-dichlorophenyl)urea; TCC;
NCIt definition : A triclosan analogue with an antibacterial property. Triclocarban exerts its effect
by inhibiting the activity of enoyl-(acyl-carrier protein) (ACP) reductase, widely
distributed in bacteria, fungi and plants. ACP reductase catalyses the last step in
each cycle of fatty acid elongation in the type II fatty acid synthase systems. As
a result, this agent interrupts cell membrane synthesis and leads to bacterial growth
inhibition.;
