General description

Chemical structure: macrolide

Application

Spiramycin is a macrolide antibiotic that is commonly used to treat infections of soft tissues. It has been used to treat bronchopulmonary infections in adults [1] and has been used to study septicemia in mice [2].

Biochem/physiol Actions

Spiramycin is a 16-membered ring macrolide antibiotic from Streptomyces ambofaciens. It inhibits bacterial protein synthesis at the level of peptidy-tRNA dissociation from ribosomes. It is mainly used against Gram-positive bacteria.

Quality

A mixture of Spiramycin I, II and III.

Other Notes

Keep container tightly closed in a dry and well-ventilated place.
