Gibco™ Ampicillin, sodium salt, irradiated 

Description

Ampicillin differs from penicillin only by the presence of an amino group, which facilitates penetration through the outer membrane of some gram-negative bacteria. Ampicillin acts by interfering directly with the turnover of the bacteria cell wall and indirectly by triggering the release of enzymes that further alter the cell wall.

• Used as selective antibiotic for resistant bacteria, generally at concentration of 10-25μg/ml for liquid media and 35-50μg/ml for plates
• Product is provided as powder
• Made into stock solution at 10mg/ml in water
• Ampicillin is not used to prevent bacterial contamination of cell cultures due to concerns of mammalian and insect cell toxicity
