Product descriptionAntibiotic-Antimycotic 100X is a sterile, frozen reagent formulated to prevent growth of Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria, yeasts and fungi in cell and tissue culture. The solution combines penicillin, streptomycin and amphotericin B to provide a broad antimicrobial spectrum.
Composition and mode of action- Penicillin: inhibits bacterial cell wall synthesis.
- Streptomycin: inhibits prokaryotic protein synthesis by preventing the transition from the initiation complex to the elongating ribosome and can cause miscoding.
- Amphotericin B: interacts with fungal membrane sterols to form channels, altering membrane permeability and causing leakage of small molecules.
Applications- Prevention of bacterial and fungal contamination in cell and tissue culture.
