Description

General description

Lithium mupirocin is isolated from Pseudomonas fluorescens. At lower concentrations, it has bacteriostatic characteristics, while at higher concentrations it is bacteriocidal. Mupirocin is active against gram-positive bacteria such as Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA), Lactobacilli, Lactococci, Streptococci and Leuconostocs. Mupirocin has been used to study mupirocin resistance in Mycoplasma bacteria. Mupirocin inhibits the isoleucyl-tRNA synthetase, which finally results in inhibition of protein and RNA synthesis. Mupirocin lithium salt is freely soluble in water.

Application

Lithium mupirocin supplement is used for selective enumeration of Bifidobacteria from fermented milk products along with the TOS-propionate agar according to ISO 29981:2010 and IDF 220:2010
