Description

Autoclavable. Stable over a wide pH range at 37C for up to 15 days., M.W. 463.0 (C2, free base)., Broad-spectrum cell culture antibiotic that is non-toxic to viruses and mammalian cells at anti-bacterial and anti-mycoplasmal concentrations. Its extended stability and the slow development of bacterial resistance allow long-term virus and tissue culture studies. Composed of three closely related compounds: gentamycin C1, C1a, and C2. Reduces sphingomyelinase activity in fibroblasts. Molecular weight of C2 free base = 463.0., Broad-spectrum cell culture antibiotic that is nontoxic to viruses and mammalian cells at antibacterial and antimycoplasmal concentrations. Its extended stability and slow development of bacterial resistance allow long-term virus and tissue culture studies. Composed of three closely related components: gentamycin C1, C1a, and C2. Reduces sphingomyelinase activity in fibroblasts. M.W. refers to C2 free base form.
