Application Notes
Pencillin G is a beta-lactam antibiotic with board spectrum of activity against Gram-positive bacteria, Gram-negative cocci and some bacteria, spirochaetes and actinomycetes.2 Its mode of action is to inhibit the final stage of bacterial cell wall synthesis by binding to and inactivating the transpeptidase during the peptidoglycan production.2,3
Minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) of penicillin G has been reported for many bacteria. MIC of penicillin G for S. pneumonia and S. pyogenes is 128 µg/mL4, B. subtilis is 0.8 µg/mL, S. aureus is 0.34 µg/mL , E. coli is 0.56 µg/mL, P. flourescens is 1.34 µg/mL, and H. pylori. is 0.92 µg/mL.5
PhytoTechnology Laboratories® also carries Penicillin G Solution at 10 mg/mL (Prod. No. P6767) which can be used with our PhytoSelect Basal Medium (Prod. No. P6800) for the selection of Xanthomonas campestris.
Please Note: It is the sole responsibility of the purchaser to determine the appropriateness of this product for the specific plants that are being cultured and applications that are being used.
