Gentamicin sulfate (Centicin; Refobacin; Septigen sulfate; Uromycine; Oksitselanim; Lyramycin) is a potent aminoglycoside antibiotic widely used in the intensive care unit (ICU) to treat several types of bacterial infections such as bone infections, endocarditis, pelvic inflammatory disease, meningitis, pneumonia, urinary tract infections, and sepsis among others. It has activity against both gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria and can inhibit several strains of mycoplasma in tissue culture. Gentamicin also inhibits DNase I with an IC50 of 0.57 mM. Gentamicin sulfate is a complex of three different closely related aminoglycoside sulfates, Gentamicins C1, C2, and C1(subA), obtained from Micromonospora purpurea and related species.
ln Vitro |
Gentamicin is harmless to tissue culture monolayers, does not affect viral replication, and is a more effective antibiotic activator than combined penicillin-streptomycin [2]. Gentamicin has been demonstrated to be bactericidal against a broader range of organisms (Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Proteus spp., and Streptococcus faecalis) and has been successfully employed as an additive in mycology to limit the growth of bacteria. generates streptomycin and penicillin [2]. Gentamicin is stable at autoclaving temperatures, harmless to rhesus monkey kidney, HeLa, and human amniotic cells, and does not interfere with the cellular effects generated by some polioviruses and echoviruses in tissue cultures [2]. Several Micromonospora species generate gentamicin [3]. RNA [3].

ln Vivo |
Injectable and mouse formulations of gentamicin sulfate have shown strong antimicrobial activity against Y. pestis in infection models using mice [3]. Mice treated with gentamicin sulfate (0.27 g/kg) demonstrated a marked decrease in bacteria on foreign bodies [4]. 】.

Calculation results
Working concentration: mg/mL;
Method for preparing DMSO stock solution: mg drug pre-dissolved in μL DMSO (stock solution concentration mg/mL). Please contact us first if the concentration exceeds the DMSO solubility of the batch of drug.
Method for preparing in vivo formulation::Take μL DMSO stock solution, next add μL PEG300, mix and clarify, next addμL Tween 80, mix and clarify, next add μL ddH2O,mix and clarify.
(1) Please be sure that the solution is clear before the addition of next solvent. Dissolution methods like vortex, ultrasound or warming and heat may be used to aid dissolving.
(2) Be sure to add the solvent(s) in order.
