Description

Fradicin CAS NO 1403-61-8 is a polypeptide antibiotic complex primarily known for its potent antimicrobial activity against Gram-positive bacteria. This compound is valued for its role as a selective agent in microbiological research and as a preservative in sensitive formulations. It is particularly relevant for manufacturers and researchers in the pharmaceutical, biotechnology, and diagnostic sectors requiring high-purity antimicrobial components.

Application

• As a selective agent in cell culture media and microbiological growth media.
• Preservative component in pharmaceutical and cosmetic formulations susceptible to Gram-positive bacterial contamination.
• Research tool in molecular biology and biochemistry for studying bacterial cell wall synthesis and antibiotic resistance mechanisms.
• Use in diagnostic kits and reagents as an antimicrobial stabilizer.
• Potential application in animal feed additives for gut health management (subject to regional regulatory approvals).
• Component in topical ointments and creams for veterinary or dermatological use.

Quality Control

Our Fradicin is produced and tested under a rigorous quality management system. Each batch is analyzed to ensure it meets stringent specifications for identity, purity, and biological activity. A comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) is provided with each shipment, detailing results from tests including assay, potency, and impurity profiles. We support compliance with cGMP and relevant pharmacopeial standards for active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs).

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry place at controlled room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive) nature, the container must be kept tightly sealed after opening to prevent absorption of atmospheric moisture, which may affect stability and potency.
