| Biochem/physiol Actions: | Neomycin is an aminoglycoside antibiotic, produced by Streptomyces containing a minimum of 85% neomycin B. It acts as a selection agent for prokaryotic cells transformed using the neo selectable marker gene. Neomycin trisulfate is used to study the cytototoxic side effects of antibiotics, platelet-derived growth factor responses in certain fibroblasts and extraction of nuclear phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate-interact Mode of action: This product acts by binding to the 30S and 50S subunits, causing miscoding and inhibiting initiation and elongation during protein synthesis. Neomycin also blocks voltage-sensitive Ca2+ channels without affecting the Na+/Ca2+ antiporter in neurons. Antimicrobial spectrum: Neomycin acts against both gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria |
| Disclaimer: | This solution is formulated to contain 10 mg/mL neomycin in 0.9% sodium chloride. It is stable at 37 °C for 5 days and should be otherwise stored at 2-8°C. |
