产品介绍

Vancomycin Hydrochloride, USP (syn: Vancomycin HCl) is a glycopeptide antibiotic derived from Streptomyces orientalis that was discovered in 1953 from a soil sample found in Borneo. It is effective against Gram-positive bacteria such as Staphylococcus aureus, including MRSA. Vancomycin HCl is commonly used in selective media for isolation of Gram-negative bacteria as well as studies of nanoparticle transport and antibiotic resistance.

Vancomycin HCl acts as a bacterial cell wall synthesis inhibitor by preventing the transfer and addition of NAM/NAG-peptides that make up the peptidoglycan cell wall structure. 

Vancomycin HCl has low cell toxicity in plant cells and has been used in conjunction with Cefotaxime or Carbenicillin to stop the growth of Agrobacterium in plant cell culture and transformation.
