Carbenicillin disodium salt (CAS 4800-94-6) is a semi-synthetic -lactam antibiotic commonly employed in biomedical research As a -lactam it inhibits bacterial cell-wall biosynthesis by irreversibly binding and inactivating bacterial transpeptidase enzymes thereby preventing the cross-linking of peptidoglycan layers required for cell wall integrity Carbenicillin is predominantly utilized against gram-negative bacteria although it also retains limited activity toward some gram-positive strains Due to its resistance to -lactamase-mediated degradation carbenicillin can substitute ampicillin for selecting plasmids encoding the bla (ampicillin resistance) gene in bacterial cultures
