Novobiocin Sodium Salt

Novobiocin Sodium Salt is an aminocoumarin-class antibiotic that inhibits bacterial DNA gyrase, an essential enzyme for DNA replication, transcription, and repair. By interfering with DNA supercoiling, it prevents bacterial growth and proliferation, primarily targeting Gram-positive bacteria.

In laboratory and microbiological research, Novobiocin Sodium Salt is commonly used for antimicrobial susceptibility testing, studies of DNA replication and topoisomerase function, and investigations into bacterial growth and resistance mechanisms. The sodium salt form enhances solubility for use in aqueous laboratory solutions.

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