General description
Antibiotic Antimycotic Solution is formulated to contain 10,000 units penicillin, 10 mg streptomycin and 25μg Amphotericin B per mL, and is solubilized in a proprietary citrate buffer. It is recommended for use in cell culture applications at 10mL/L. Antibioticantimycotic solution is generally used to prevent the growth of harmful microorganisms including bacteria and fungi in cell culture media.
Application
Antibiotic antimycotic solution has been used:
- as a supplement in different types of cell culture media.[1][2][3]
- as a component of phosphate buffer saline (PBS) sterile solution to prevent contamination of periodontal ligament fibroblasts (PDLF) tissues that are isolated and cultured in the experiments.[4]
- as a component of storage solution for preserving tracheal segments harvested for subsequent experimental investigation.
Biochem/physiol Actions
Mode of Action: Penicillin acts by inhibiting bacterial cell-wall synthesis. Streptomycin inhibits prokaryote protein synthesis by preventing the transition from initiation complex to chain-elongating ribosome and causes miscoding. Amphotericin B interferes with fungal membrane permeability by forming channels in the membranes and causing small molecules to leak out.
Antimicrobial spectrum: Includes Gram-negative bacteria, Gram-positive bacteria, fungi and yeasts.
Antimicrobial spectrum: Includes Gram-negative bacteria, Gram-positive bacteria, fungi and yeasts.

Hello, Could you please confirm that the antibiotic/antimycotic is tested for sterility as this does not appear on your CoA.
1 answer-
This product is sterile filtered through a 0.1 μm membrane. However, sterility testing is not performed on the finished product.

I am looking at the SDS for product number A5955, Antibiotic Antimycotic soln. I do not see Amphotericin B in composition of ingredients (3.2 mixtures). I want to know why. Thank you.
1 answer-
Section 3 of SDS shows only the hazardous component information. Product# A5955 contains microgram amounts of Amphotericin B. At this concentration it is non-hazardous, hence section 3 of SDS does not list Amphotericin B.
