Description

Kasugamycin Phosphate is a water-soluble derivative of the aminoglycoside antibiotic kasugamycin, designed for enhanced stability and bioavailability. This compound is valued for its potent antibacterial and antifungal activity, particularly against a range of plant pathogens. It is a critical active ingredient for the agricultural industry, serving as a key component in crop protection formulations. Researchers and manufacturers in the agrochemical and pharmaceutical sectors rely on its specific mode of action for developing effective solutions.

Application

• Agricultural Bactericide & Fungicide: Primary use in controlling bacterial and fungal diseases in crops such as rice (e.g., rice blast), fruits, and vegetables.
• Crop Protection Formulations: A key active ingredient in the manufacture of soluble concentrates (SL), wettable powders (WP), and other foliar spray formulations.
• Plant Disease Management: Effective in integrated pest management (IPM) programs due to its specific activity and low phytotoxicity at recommended doses.
• Research & Development: Used in biochemical and microbiological research to study antibiotic mechanisms of action and resistance.
• Seed Treatment: Application for protecting seeds from soil-borne pathogens during germination and early seedling growth.
• Post-Harvest Treatment: Potential use in protecting stored agricultural products from fungal decay.

Quality Control

Our Kasugamycin Phosphate is produced under a strict quality management system to ensure batch-to-batch consistency and high purity. Each lot is accompanied by a comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing key parameters such as assay, impurity profile, and moisture content. We adhere to relevant agricultural chemical standards and can provide material suitable for GMP manufacturing upon request.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area at a controlled room temperature (15-25°C). This material is hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive). Keep the container tightly sealed in a dry environment to prevent absorption of moisture and caking.
