Description

Beromycin is a potent anthracycline-class antibiotic compound, identified by CAS No. 12674-15-6, valued for its significant antitumor and antimicrobial activities. Its core value proposition lies in its ability to intercalate with DNA and inhibit topoisomerase II, making it a critical intermediate and reference standard in pharmaceutical research and development. This product is essential for researchers and manufacturers in the oncology drug development, microbiology, and advanced chemical synthesis sectors.

Application

• Pharmaceutical Intermediate: Serves as a key building block in the synthesis of novel anthracycline-based chemotherapeutic agents.
• Biomedical Research: Used as a reference standard and active compound in studies targeting DNA replication, cancer cell apoptosis, and antibiotic mechanisms.
• Antimicrobial Agent Development: Investigated for its potential in creating new antibiotics against resistant bacterial strains.
• Biochemical Tool: Employed in enzymatic assays and as a molecular probe to study topoisomerase II function and inhibition.
• Academic & Industrial R&D: Fundamental for discovery chemistry and pharmacology programs in both university and corporate settings.

Quality Control

Our Beromycin is produced and handled under strict quality management protocols to ensure batch-to-batch consistency and reliability for research applications. Each lot undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including identity confirmation and purity assessment via advanced chromatographic methods. A Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing specific results is provided with every shipment to support your quality assurance and regulatory documentation needs.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry place at a controlled room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive) nature, the container must be kept tightly sealed in a dry environment to prevent degradation. For long-term storage, consider desiccants or inert atmosphere.
