Description

Arbekacin Sulphate is a semi-synthetic aminoglycoside antibiotic derived from kanamycin B. This compound is valued for its potent activity against a broad spectrum of Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria, including methicillin-resistant *Staphylococcus aureus* (MRSA). It is primarily utilized by pharmaceutical manufacturers and research institutions in the development of injectable antibiotic formulations and advanced antimicrobial research.

Application

• Pharmaceutical Active Ingredient (API): Core component in the formulation of injectable antibiotic drugs for serious systemic infections.
• Antimicrobial Research: Used as a reference standard or active compound in microbiological studies and the development of new therapeutic agents.
• Veterinary Medicine: Employed in the development of treatments for bacterial infections in animals.
• Laboratory Reagent: Serves as a high-purity biochemical reagent for enzymatic and cellular pathway studies.

Quality Control

Our Arbekacin Sulphate is manufactured under strict quality management systems. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including HPLC for purity, microbial limits testing, and specific identification assays, to ensure it meets high-grade pharmaceutical standards. Certificates of Analysis (COA) detailing all specifications are available upon request.

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 low-humidity environment to prevent degradation.
