Description

General description

Chemical structure: aminoglycoside

Application

Amikacin is an aminoglycoside antibiotic commonly used in the treatment of drug-resistant mycobacteria . It is used to study organism-directed delivery of antibiotics as well as drug resistance .

Biochem/physiol Actions

Amikacin prevents bacterial protein synthesis by binding to the 30S ribosome subunit and inducing mRNA misreading.

Packaging

Bottomless glass bottle. Contents are inside inserted fused cone.

Other Notes

Keep container tightly closed in a dry and well-ventilated place.
