General description
Chemical structure: ß-lactam
Application
Amoxicillin is used to study the oxygen dependent antimicrobial systems of polymorphonuclear leukocytes (PMNLs), the risk of resistance development in Helicobacter pylori, and various dosing strategies against Streptococcus pneumoniae and Pneumococcal pneumonia [1][2][3][4]. It is also used to study the synthesis of bacterial cell walls at the level of peptidoglycan polymer chain cross-linking involving bacterial transpeptidase.
Biochem/physiol Actions
Amoxicillin is a broad-spectrum, β-lactam antibiotic. It is a 4-hydroxy analog of ampicillin with similar ranges of actions and utility to ampicillin. Amoxicillin inhibits the cross-linkage between linear peptidoglycan polymer chains that are the major component of both Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria.
Other Notes
Keep container tightly closed in a dry and well-ventilated place.

Bonjour, je n'ai pas trouvé de fiche pour savoir comment solubiliser à 10 mg/ml de l'amoxicilline A8523 ? Je veux traiter des souris par voie intraperitoneale, et je ne peux pas injecter plus de 100µl. Merci . Catherine
1 answer-
This product is soluble at 50 mg/mL in 1M Ammonium Hydroxide. This stock may then be diluted in a physiologic buffer. This product is not tested for in vivo or in vitro use. Stock solutions would require filter sterilization before use. Also, note that this product tends to have a high moisture content.
It is advised to review the lot-specific Certificate of Analysis to accurately prepare a stock solution.Helpful?
