Alkali Scientific Mitomycin C, 5 Mg
Mitomycin C is a potent antitumor antibiotic derived from Streptomyces caespitosus and widely used in molecular biology and cell biology research. It functions as a DNA cross linking agent that inhibits DNA synthesis and induces cell death by forming covalent cross links within DNA strands. Researchers use Mitomycin C to study DNA damage, DNA repair pathways, and cellular stress responses. Because it can induce DNA cross links in both dividing and non dividing cells, it is valuable for investigating mechanisms of genome stability, replication inhibition, and cytotoxicity in controlled laboratory studies. The reagent is commonly applied in experimental protocols involving DNA adduct formation, cell cycle studies, and molecular biology assays requiring reliable DNA cross linking activity.
