Cat. No.: HY-17579S
Synonyms: FK463-d11 ammonium
Micafungin-d11 ammonium (FK463-d11 ammonium) is the deuterium labeled Micafungin ammonium. Micafungin (FK463) is an antifungal agent and can inhibit β-1,3-glucan synthase. Micafungin inhibits 1,3-β-glucan biosynthesis in fungal cell walls. Micafungin can be used for the research of fungal infection, such as candida infections and aspergillosis .

Infection

Aculeacin A is a β-1,3-glucan synthase inhibitor. Aculeacin A is an antifungal antibiotic. Aculeacin A inhibits cell wall glucan synthesis in growing yeast cells, induces cell lysis, osmotic fragility, cell aggregation and abnormal cell morphology, without affecting the synthesis of proteins, nucleic acids or mannan. Aculeacin A acts only on growing yeast cells and has a narrow antifungal spectrum, mainly targeting Candida and Torulopsis species. Aculeacin A shows reduced activity in human serum and exhibits a paradoxical dose-response pattern. Aculeacin A has an inoculum effect against some Candida albicans strains, and its activity is pH-stable. Aculeacin A can be used in studies of fungal infections, such as those caused by Candida, Torulopsis and other species .
