General description
Carbenicillin is commonly used in cell biology applications to prevent the growth of bacterial contaminants. It is also used in microbiology to select for bacteria that have been transformed with a vector harboring the gene encoding beta-lactamase, which makes them resistant to carbenicillin.
Application
- in the preparation of Luria-Bertani (LB) agar plates and media
- as a selective agent in the culture media to prevent the growth of bacterial contaminants
- in a study focused on the development of monoclonal antibodies
Biochem/physiol Actions
Antimicrobial spectrum: Active against Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria
Features and Benefits
- Broad-spectrum antibiotic with bactericidal and beta-lactamase resistant activity
- Effective against a wide range of bacteria, including Pseudomonas aeruginosa
- Commonly used in Cell Biology and Biochemical applications
- Offers greater stablility than ampicillin
