Ampicillin Sodium Salt
Model Number IB02040
For research use only. Not for human, veterinary, or therapeutic use. Sold as a laboratory selection reagent. CAS 69-52-3. Used in molecular biology to select E. coli carrying ampicillin-resistance plasmids during cloning.
Ampicillin Sodium salt is an antibiotic in the broad-spectrum penicillin group. Ampicillin differs from penicillin only by the presence of an amino group, which facilitates penetration through the outer membrane of some gram-negative bacteria. Ampicillin acts by interfering directly with the turnover of the bacterial cell wall and indirectly by triggering the release of enzymes that further alter the cell wall.

Additional Item Description:
Ampicillin Sodium salt is an antibiotic in the broad-spectrum penicillin group. Ampicillin differs from penicillin only by the presence of an amino group, which facilitates penetration through the outer membrane of some gram-negative bacteria.
Ampicillin acts by interfering directly with the turnover of the bacterial cell wall and indirectly by triggering the release of enzymes that further alter the cell wall. Ampicillin is an antibiotic used to inhibit cell wall biosynthesis by interrupting peptidogly can cross-linking. Ampicillin can be used in cell culture applications.
Ampicillin Sodium Salt is in powder form which makes it an economical choice for cell culture and molecular biology applications.
