Melford Streptomycin Sulfate
Description
Streptomycin Sulfate is an aminoglycoside antibiotic that inhibits bacterial protein synthesis by binding to the 30S ribosomal subunit, disrupting the initiation complex and leading to misreading of mRNA.
Streptomycin is employed in microbiology for selective bacterial isolation and antibiotic sensitivity testing to assess the susceptibility of bacterial strains. Ideal for studying bacterial susceptibility patterns and antibiotic resistance. Its inclusion in culture media aids in selectively isolating bacteria susceptible to this antibiotic.
