Antibiotic Antimycotic Solution (100X)

Antibiotic Antimycotic Solution (100X) for prevention of contamination by bacteria, yeasts and moulds.

Penicillin G from Penicillium notatum and streptomycin from Streptomyces griseus prevent together against gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria bacterial contamination of cell cultures. Penicillin G acts by interfering directly with turnover of bacterial cell wall and indirectly by triggering release of enzymes that alter the cell wall. Streptomycin works by attaching to the 30S subunit of the bacterial ribosome, which leads to an inhibition of protein synthesis and the subsequent death of bacteria.

Amphotericin B interferes with fungal membrane permeability by forming channels in the membranes and causing small molecules to leak out. Antimicrobial spectrum: Gram-negative bacteria, Gram-positive bacteria, fungi and yeasts. Recommended for use in cell culture applications at 10mL/L.
