Thermo Fisher, J66886.03, Ceftiofur sodium, 95%

Quantity: 1 g
Unit Size: Each
ApplicationsCeftiofur sodium is resistant to the antibiotic resistance enzyme beta-lactamase, and has activity against Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria. E. coli strains resistant to ceftiofur have been reported. The bactericidal activity of ceftiofur results from the inhibition of cell wall synthesis via affinity for penicillin-binding proteins. The PBPs are transpeptidases which are vital in peptidoglycan biosynthesis. Therefore, their inhibition prevents this vital cell wall component from being properly synthesized.SolubilityFreely soluble in aqueous solutionNotesResearch Use only: Not intended for animal or human diagnostic or therapeutic use.
