Antibiotics

This solution contains 10,000 units/mL of penicillin and 10,000 μg/mL of streptomycin. The antibiotics penicillin and streptomycin are used to prevent bacterial contamination of cell cultures due to their effective combined action against gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria.

Gibco™ Antibiotic-Antimycotic is used to prevent bacterial and fungal contamination. This solution contains 10,000 units/mL of penicillin, 10,000 μg/mL of streptomycin, and 25 μg/mL of Gibco Amphotericin B.

Gentamicin sulfate is a water-soluble antibiotic drug originally purified from the fungus Micromonospora purpurea. Gentamicin acts by binding to the 30S subunit of the bacterial ribosome leading to inhibition protein synthesis and death in susceptible bacteria.

The antibiotics penicillin and streptomycin are used to prevent bacterial contamination in cell cultures due to their effective combined action against gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria. Penicillin was originally purified from the fungi Penicillium and acts by interfering directly with the...

Blasticidin S is a peptidyl nucleoside antibiotic isolated from Streptomyces griseochromogenes. It is a potent inhibitor of protein synthesis in in bacteria and eukaryotes, while also active against fungi, nematodes, and tumor cells.

Puromycin Dihydrochloride is an aminonucleoside antibiotic produced by Streptomyces alboniger. Puromycin works by inhibiting peptidyl transfer on both prokaryotic and eukaryotic ribosomes; resistance is conferred by the expression of the pac gene.

The antibiotics penicillin and streptomycin are used to prevent bacterial contamination of cell cultures due to their effective combined action against gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria. Penicillin was originally purified from the fungi Penicillium and acts by interfering directly with the...

Gibco™ Zeocin™ Selection Antibiotic is a formulation of phleomycin D1, a glycopeptide antibiotic produced by Streptomyces verticillus. Zeocin™ Selection Antibiotic acts by binding to and cleaving DNA, leading to cell death.

Geneticin™ Selective Antibiotic (G418 Sulfate) is produced by the bacterium Micromonospora rhodorangea and acts by binding the ribosome, thus inhibiting protein synthesis in both prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells. Resistance to Geneticin™ Selective Antibiotic (G418 Sulfate) is conferred by the E.

Hygromycin B is a water-soluble antibiotic purified from the bacterium Streptomyces hydroscopicus. Gibco™ Hygromycin B is used as a bacterial selection antibiotic in the concentration range of 200–500 μg/mL. This product is supplied as a 50 mg/mL solution.

Carbenicillin Disodium Salt is a semi-synthetic penicillin antibiotic with a carboxyl and benzyl group. Its mechanism of action is the same as ampicillin. It interferes with cell wall synthesis of gram-negative bacteria while displaying low toxicity to plant tissues.

The antibiotics Penicillin, Streptomycin, and Neomycin are used to prevent bacterial contamination of cell cultures due to their effective combined action against gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria.

Actinomycin D is a nonfluorescent DNA intercalator that exhibits high GC selectivity and causes distortion at its binding site. Binding of the nonfluorescent actinomycin D to nucleic acids changes the absorbance of the dye. Actinomycin D has been used for chromosome banding studies.

Kanamycin Sulfate is a water-soluble antibiotic originally purified from the bacterium Streptomyces kanamyceticus. Kanamycin acts by binding to the 30S subunit of the bacterial ribosome and inhibiting protein synthesis in susceptible bacteria.

Ampicillin is an antibiotic in the broad-spectrum penicillin group. Ampicillin differs from penicillin only by the presence of an amino group, which facilitates penetration through the outer membrane of some gram-negative bacteria.
