Zanamivir flu drug, molecular model C016 / 5801
Zanamivir flu drug, molecular model. Zanamivir is an antiviral drug (commonly known by its trade name Relenza). It is administered in spray form for inhalation, and reduces the length of an attack of influenza (flu) if taken early in the course of the disease. It works by blocking the enzyme neuraminidase, which is found on the surface of the influenza virus. The molecular formula is C12.H20.N4.O7. Atoms are represented as spheres and are colour-coded: carbon (white), hydrogen (white), nitrogen (blue) and oxygen (red)

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the molecular model of Zanamivir, a highly effective antiviral drug used in the treatment of influenza. Known by its trade name Relenza, this medication is administered through inhalation as a spray and has been proven to reduce the duration of flu symptoms when taken early on during the illness. The image beautifully illustrates the intricate structure of Zanamivir, with atoms represented as color-coded spheres. Carbon and hydrogen are depicted in white, nitrogen in blue, and oxygen in red. The molecular formula C12. H20. N4. O7 further emphasizes its chemical composition. Zanamivir works by blocking neuraminidase, an enzyme found on the surface of influenza viruses. By inhibiting this crucial enzyme's activity, Zanamivir prevents viral replication and spread within the body. This visually striking artwork not only highlights the pharmaceutical significance of Zanamivir but also represents a breakthrough in medical science. With its precise depiction of molecular biology and pharmacology principles, it serves as a valuable tool for researchers studying biochemical processes related to antiviral drugs. Created by RAMON ANDRADE 3DCIENCIA/SCIENCE PHOTO LIBRARY, this stunning print captures both scientific accuracy and artistic flair. Its clean white background allows viewers to focus solely on understanding the structural intricacies that make Zanamivir such an essential weapon against influenza outbreaks worldwide.
