Alkali Scientific Carbenicillin, Disodium Salt, 1 G

Supplier: Alkali Scientific CAR001CP
Carbenicillin Disodium Salt is a beta-lactam antibiotic used in microbiological research for its ability to inhibit bacterial cell wall synthesis. It interferes with the formation of peptidoglycan cross-links, leading to weakened cell walls and bacterial lysis. Carbenicillin is commonly used in molecular biology for the selection of plasmid-containing bacteria, particularly in cloning and transformation experiments. Compared to ampicillin, it offers improved stability and reduced satellite colony formation. This compound is widely applied in cell culture and microbiology laboratories for maintaining selective pressure in bacterial cultures and supporting studies involving gene expression, recombinant DNA technology, and antimicrobial activity.
