Polychlor works by attaching to the bacterial ribosome (obstructing peptidyl transferase enzyme) and inhibits protein synthesis. Thus it ceases the growth of bacteria by interfering with protein synthesis.
It has a polypeptide bactericidal antibiotic that works by attaching to the cell wall of susceptible bacteria and alters the permeability of the superficial and inward membranes to k+ and na+ ions. Thus it kills the bacteria..
