Description

Syringomycin is a potent cyclic lipodepsinonapeptide antibiotic produced by certain strains of the plant pathogen *Pseudomonas syringae*. This compound is of significant interest due to its unique mode of action, forming voltage-dependent ion channels in plasma membranes, which leads to rapid cell death. It serves as a critical research tool in plant pathology, biochemistry, and antimicrobial studies for investigating host-pathogen interactions and membrane biophysics. Global industries engaged in agricultural research, antifungal agent development, and fundamental life science research are the primary users of this specialized biochemical.

Application

• Plant Pathology Research: Used as a model phytotoxin to study plant-microbe interactions, disease mechanisms, and plant defense responses.
• Antimicrobial Studies: Serves as a reference standard in bioassays to evaluate antifungal activity against various plant and human pathogens.
• Membrane Biophysics: Employed in research to investigate the formation and properties of ion channels in lipid bilayers and cellular membranes.
• Biochemical Research: Utilized as a specific agent to study programmed cell death (apoptosis) and calcium signaling in eukaryotic cells.
• Agrochemical Development: Acts as a lead compound or benchmark in the discovery and development of novel biofungicides.
• Educational & Reference Standard: Supplied to academic and institutional laboratories for teaching and as a high-purity analytical standard.

Quality Control

Our Syringomycin is produced and handled under strict quality management protocols to ensure batch-to-batch consistency and purity for research applications. Each lot is characterized using advanced analytical techniques including HPLC and mass spectrometry. A comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA), detailing purity, identity, and biological activity, is provided with every shipment to support your research integrity and compliance needs.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store at -20°C or below. This product is hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive). Allow the vial to warm to room temperature in a desiccator before opening to prevent condensation and moisture uptake. For long-term storage, keep under inert atmosphere.
