Description

Staphylococcin CAS NO 53026-91-8 is a specialized bacteriocin, a proteinaceous toxin produced by certain strains of *Staphylococcus* bacteria, with potent antimicrobial activity. This compound is of significant interest for its targeted inhibitory effects against closely related bacterial strains, making it a valuable tool for microbiological research and development. It is primarily utilized by researchers in the life sciences, pharmaceutical development, and industrial microbiology sectors for studying bacterial competition, developing novel antimicrobial agents, and exploring probiotic mechanisms.

Application

• Microbiological Research: Used as a model bacteriocin to study microbial ecology, inter-bacterial competition (allelopathy), and quorum-sensing mechanisms.
• Pharmaceutical R&D: Serves as a lead compound or a tool for screening and developing new narrow-spectrum antibacterial therapies with minimal impact on beneficial microbiota.
• Food Safety & Preservation: Investigated for potential application as a natural biopreservative to control pathogenic or spoilage bacteria in food systems.
• Probiotic Studies: Employed to understand and enhance the competitive exclusion properties of probiotic formulations.
• Diagnostic Development: Can be used in the development of specific assays or kits for bacterial strain typing and identification.
• Academic & Institutional Laboratories: Essential reagent for advanced studies in bacteriology, molecular biology, and antimicrobial resistance.

Quality Control

Our Staphylococcin is produced and handled under stringent quality management protocols to ensure batch-to-batch consistency and biological activity. Each lot is subjected to rigorous analytical testing, including purity assessment and functional activity assays. A comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing identity, purity, potency, and microbiological status is provided with every shipment to support your research and regulatory documentation needs.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store at -20°C or below for long-term stability. This product is hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive). Allow the vial to equilibrate to room temperature in a desiccator before opening to prevent condensation and moisture uptake. For short-term use, store at 2-8°C.
