Related Product Information for Amphotericin B USP antibiotic
Amphotericin B is a polyene antifungal agent for yeast, mold and mycoplasma. It was first isolated by Gold, et a., from Streptomyces nodosus in 1955. It is an amphoteric compound composed of a hydrophilic polyhydroxyl chain along one side and a lipophilic polyene hydrocarbon chain on the other. Amphotericin B is poorly soluble in water. Amphotericin B binds to sterols, preferentially to the primary fungal cell membrane sterol, ergosterol. This binding disrupts osmotic integrity of the fungal membrane, resulting in leakage of intracellular potassium, magnesium, sugars, and metabolites and then cellular death.

Used in the preparation of baculoviral stocks.

Product Notes

The Amphotericin B USP (Catalog #AAA651198) is an Antibiotic and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "Amphotericin B USP, Antibiotic" to become dispersed throughout the inside of the vial, particularly around the seal of said vial, during shipment and storage. We always suggest centrifuging these vials to consolidate all of the liquid away from the lid and to the bottom of the vial prior to opening. Please be advised that certain products may require dry ice for shipping and that, if this is the case, an additional dry ice fee may also be required.
