Ampicillin Sodium Salt
Canvax Ampicillin Sodium Salt, molecular biology grade antibiotic for bacterial selection and cloning.
Ampicillin Sodium Salt is a broad-spectrum, β-lactam antibiotic widely used as a selective agent in molecular biology and bacterial cell culture research. Closely related to penicillin, it differs by the presence of an amino group that enhances its antibacterial spectrum against both Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria.
This antibiotic inhibits bacterial cell wall synthesis by inactivating transpeptidases, making it a reliable tool for maintaining sterility and selecting ampicillin-resistant plasmid-bearing cells. Manufactured under stringent quality control standards, Canvax ensures consistent lot-to-lot performance and reliable results in sensitive research applications.
This product is for Research Use Only. Not for human or veterinary use. It is widely used in bacterial cell culture as a selective agent. Inhibits bacterial cell-wall synthesis by inactivating transpeptidases on the inner surface of the bacterial cell membrane.
