Description

Cefsulodin Monobactam CAS NO 86710-50-1 is a specialized monocyclic β-lactam antibiotic belonging to the monobactam class, distinct from penicillins and cephalosporins. It is valued for its potent and specific activity against Pseudomonas aeruginosa and is a critical tool for microbiological research and diagnostic applications. This high-purity compound is essential for pharmaceutical R&D, clinical laboratories, and the development of novel antibacterial agents and susceptibility testing standards.

Application

• Microbiological Research: Used as a selective agent in culture media to study Pseudomonas aeruginosa and its resistance mechanisms.
• Clinical Diagnostics: A key component in antibiotic susceptibility test (AST) discs and gradient strips for determining bacterial resistance profiles.
• Pharmaceutical Reference Standard: Serves as a certified reference material (CRM) for quality control and assay development of antibiotic formulations.
• Biochemical Studies: Employed to investigate the structure and function of bacterial penicillin-binding proteins (PBPs) and β-lactamases.
• Veterinary Medicine: Applied in research for developing treatments for bacterial infections in animals.

Quality Control

Our Cefsulodin Monobactam is manufactured under strict quality management systems. Every batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing including HPLC for purity, identification by IR and NMR spectroscopy, and stringent limits for residual solvents and impurities. Certificates of Analysis (COA) detailing all specifications are provided to ensure compliance with research and pharmaceutical grade requirements.

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 nature, the container must be kept in a desiccated environment to prevent moisture absorption, which can affect stability and potency.
