Carbenicillin, Disodium Salt

Carbenicillin Disodium Salt is a broad-spectrum β-lactam antibiotic belonging to the penicillin class. It inhibits bacterial cell wall synthesis by binding to penicillin-binding proteins (PBPs), leading to disruption of peptidoglycan formation and bacterial cell lysis. The disodium salt form enhances solubility in aqueous solutions, making it suitable for laboratory and microbiological applications.

In research and laboratory settings, Carbenicillin Disodium Salt is commonly used for antimicrobial susceptibility testing, bacterial growth studies, and as a selective agent in culture media for strains carrying carbenicillin resistance markers, particularly in molecular biology and plasmid selection experiments.

This product is intended for laboratory research use only and is not for human or veterinary therapeutic applications.
