Description

Rotamicillin CAS NO 55530-41-1 is a semi-synthetic penicillin derivative, specifically an amidinopenicillin, known for its broad-spectrum antibacterial activity. This compound is valued for its efficacy against a range of gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria, making it a critical intermediate in advanced pharmaceutical synthesis. It is primarily required by manufacturers in the pharmaceutical and biotechnology sectors for the production of specialized antibiotic formulations and active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs).

Application

• Pharmaceutical API Synthesis: Key intermediate in the manufacture of broad-spectrum penicillin-based antibiotics.
• Veterinary Medicine: Used in formulating antibacterial treatments for livestock and companion animals.
• Research & Development: Serves as a reference standard and building block in microbiological and pharmacological research.
• Advanced Antibiotic Formulations: Integral in developing combination therapies and next-generation antibiotic drugs.
• Bulk Drug Substance Production: Supplied to contract manufacturing organizations (CMOs) for large-scale pharmaceutical production.

Quality Control

Our Rotamicillin is produced under strict quality management systems to ensure batch-to-batch consistency and reliability. The product undergoes rigorous analytical testing, including HPLC for purity and identity confirmation, to meet the stringent requirements for pharmaceutical intermediates. Certificates of Analysis (COA) documenting full specifications are provided with every shipment to support your quality assurance protocols.

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). Due to its hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive) nature, the container must be kept tightly sealed after opening to prevent degradation from atmospheric moisture.
