    Description

    Gentamicin, an aminoglycoside antibiotic, inhibits the growth of both gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria and to inhibit several strains of mycoplasma in tissue culture. Gentamicin inhibits DNase I with an IC50 of 0.57 mM[1][2][3][4].

    IC50 & Target

    Aminoglycoside

     

    In Vitro

    Gentamicin is a more effective in vitro bacterial inhibitor than combined penicillin-streptomycin, is nontoxic to tissue culture monolayers, and does not inhibit virus replication[2].
    Gentamicin has been used with success as an additive in commercial mycology media to inhibit growth of bacteria and has been shown to be bactericidal for a wider range of organisms (Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Proteus sp., and Streptococcus faecalis) than penicillin and streptomycin[2].
    Gentamicin does not interfere with the production of cytopathic effect by certain echoviruses and polioviruses in tissue culture, is nontoxic to Rhesus monkey kidney, HeLa, and human amnion cells, and is stable at autoclave temperatures[2].

    In Vivo

    Gentamicin (10 mg/kg; s.c.; every 12 h for a total of six doses) improves survival and alters the inflammatory profile in a murine model of depsis from P. aeruginosa[3].

    MedChemExpress (MCE) has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.

    Animal Model: FVB/N mice (6-10-week-old; ~20 g) received an intratracheal injection of a solution containing the ATCC 27853 strain of P. aeruginosa[3].
    Dosage: 10 mg/kg
    Administration: Subcutaneous injection (s.c.); every 12 h for a total of six doses
    Result: Survival at 7 days was 100% for mice. Down-regulated the proinflammatory cytokines, IL-6.

    Help & FAQs
    • Do most proteins show cross-species activity?

      Species cross-reactivity must be investigated individually for each product. Many human cytokines will produce a nice response in mouse cell lines, and many mouse proteins will show activity on human cells. Other proteins may have a lower specific activity when used in the opposite species.
