Penicillin G Potassium Salt, MP Biomedicals™

Description

Active against gram-positive and gram-negative aerobic and anaerobic bacteria. Penicillin G Potassium Salt, MP Biomedicals is a narrow spectrum antibiotic. It inhibits cell wall synthesis by binding to penicillin binding proteins (PBPs), which inhibits pe

Penicillin G is the drug of choice for Streptococcus pneumoniae, groups A, B, C and G streptococci, nonenterococcal group D streptococci, viridans group streptococci, and non-penicillinase producing staphylococcus.

Penicillin G potassium salt is used to study murosomes of staphylococci and the penicillin-induced lysis of Streptococcus mutans. It is stable against hydrolysis by β-lactamases, such as penicillinases and cephalosporinases.
