Supplier: Research Products International Corp C563005.0
Cefuroxime Sodium Salt is a second-generation cephalosporin antibiotic. Cefuroxime inhibits bacterial cell wall synthesis by binding to penicillin-binding proteins (PBPs). This interference disrupts the final stages of peptidoglycan synthesis in the bacterial cell wall, leading to structural instability and eventual cell lysis.
Cefuroxime is effective against a wide spectrum of bacteria, both Gram-positive and Gram-negative. In microbiology and research settings, it is sometimes used as a selective agent in culture media to isolate bacteria that are sensitive to this antibiotic. Additionally, Its inclusion allows for the specific growth of bacteria lacking resistance to cefuroxime.
