Gibco™ Penicillin-Streptomycin-Neomycin (PSN) Antibiotic Mixture
Prevents bacterial contamination of cell cultures due to effective combined action against gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria
Brand: Gibco™ 15640055
Description
Penicillin was originally purified from fungus Penicillium and acts by interfering directly with turnover of bacteria cell wall and indirectly by triggering the release of enzymes that alter cell wall. Streptomycin was originally purified from Streptomyces griseus and Neomycin from Streptomyces fradiae. Streptomycin and Neomycin act by binding to the 30S subunit of the bacterial ribosome leading to inhibition of protein synthesis and death in susceptible bacteria.
- Solution contains 5 mg of penicillin, 5 mg of streptomycin, and 10 mg of neomycin per ml in 0.85% saline
