Research Products International Corp Cephalothin Sodium Salt, 250 Milligrams

Supplier: Research Products International Corp C594500.25
Cephalothin Sodium Salt is a first-generation cephalosporin antibiotic. It inhibits bacterial cell wall synthesis by binding to penicillin-binding proteins (PBPs). This disruption interferes with the final stages of peptidoglycan synthesis in the bacterial cell wall, leading to structural instability and eventual cell lysis.
Additionally, Cephalothin sodium salt is often used as a selective agent in culture media to isolate bacteria that are sensitive to this antibiotic. Its inclusion in culture medium allows for the specific growth of bacteria lacking resistance to cephalothin.
