Product Introduction:

This product is a chloramphenicol solution with a concentration of 50mg/ml, which can be added to bacterial liquid or solid culture base to culture bacteria containing chloramphenicol resistance genes.

Chloramphenicol, a bacterial broad-spectrum antibiotic, inhibits mRNA translation on the 50S ribosome during peptide bond formation catalyzed by peptide bond transferase, thereby inhibiting the growth of gram-negative and Gram-positive bacteria. In addition, chloramphenicol also has Rickettsial microbial resistance and psittacosis - lymphogranuloma chlamydia resistance, so chloramphenicol can be used for bacterial screening.

Acetylation of the chloramphenicol acetyltransferase gene (CAT gene) can resist resistance to chloramphenicol. Based on this principle, in molecular biology experiments, chloramphenicol can be used as a screening drug to screen transformed cells containing chloramphenicol resistance genes.

Recommended effective working concentration of 5-50μg/ml.

Note :

(1) For cell experiments, after dissolution, disposable needle filter must be used to remove bacteria.

(2) For your safety and health, please wear a lab coat and wear disposable gloves.
