Product Information
| Description: | Gentamicin, an orally active aminoglycoside antibiotic, inhibits the growth of both gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria and to inhibit several strains of mycoplasma in tissue culture. Gentamicin inhibits DNase I with an IC50 of 0.57 mM. The free form of the compound is prone to instability, it is advisable to consider the stable salt form (Gentamicin Sulfate) that retains the same biological activity. |
| Stability and Solubility Advice: | Information concerning product stability, particularly in solution, has rarely been reported and in most cases we can only offer a general guide. We recommend that stock solutions, once prepared, are stored aliquoted in tightly sealed vials and used within 1 month. Avoid repeated freeze and thaw cycles. Storage conditions for some special products should refer to their storage details. |
