Product Description
Kanamycin sulfate, the sulfate salt of Kanamycin (Kanamycin A; Kantrex; Kanamycine), is an aminoglycoside bacteriocidal antibiotic effective against gram-positive and negative bacteria and mycoplasma. It has been used for the prevention and treatment of chicken pullorum, colibacillosis, enteritis and other diseases, and has a significant effect on systemic sepsis, respiratory tract infection, peritonitis, etc. caused by drug-resistant bacteria.Aminoglycosides like kanamycin irreversibly bind to specific 30S-subunit proteins and 16S rRNA. Specifically Kanamycin binds to four nucleotides of 16S rRNA and a single amino acid of protein S12.
Kanamycin sulfate (CAS# 25389-94-0) is the sulfate salt of Kanamycin (Kanamycin A), an aminoglycoside bacteriocidal antibiotic effective against Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria and mycoplasma. It works by binding to the bacterial 30S ribosomal subunit, causing misreading of mRNA and inhibiting protein synthesis. Kanamycin sulfate is an orally active antibacterial agent that inhibits translocation and causes misencoding by binding to the 70S ribosomal subunit. It has been used for the prevention and treatment of various infections, including systemic sepsis, respiratory tract infection, and peritonitis.
Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
Targets
Kanamycin sulfate is an aminoglycoside antibiotic that binds irreversibly to the bacterial 30S ribosomal subunit. Specifically, the antibiotic is located between the 16S rRNA and S12 protein within the 30S subunit. This leads to interference with the translation initiation complex, misreading of mRNA, thereby inhibiting protein synthesis and ultimately producing a bactericidal effect. Kanamycin sulfate inhibits translocation and causes misencoding by binding to the 70S ribosomal subunit. Its primary target is the bacterial ribosome, making it effective against a broad range of bacteria.
ln Vitro
In vitro, different strains of mycobacteria show good antibacterial activity (MIC=1–5 μg/mL) when treated with kanamycin sulfate (0.1–100 μg/mL; 2 weeks)[1].
In vitro, Kanamycin sulfate (0.1-100 μg/mL; 2 weeks) shows good antibacterial activity against different strains of mycobacteria, with MICs of 1-5 μg/mL. It demonstrates strong antibacterial activity against multiple mycobacterium strains (H37Rv, H2, H37RvR-PAS, Ravenel, and BCG), with MICs of 1 μg/mL and 5 μg/mL for the Kirchbergand strain. The compound is effective against Gram-negative bacteria and Gram-positive Staphylococcus aureus and S. epidermis. Its in vitro activity is characterized by its ability to inhibit bacterial protein synthesis.
ln Vivo
In the lung and spleen of mice, kanamycin sulfate (2, 4 mg/kg; s.c.; once daily, six times a week for three weeks) inhibits the growth of bovine tubercle bacilli[1].
Kanamycin sulfate (1.25, 5 mg/kg; s.c.; single (at 3 h after infection)) increases the survival rate of mice while also inhibiting the growth of K. pneumonia DT-S in the lung, trachea, and blood of the mice in proportion to the dose administration[2].
In vivo, Kanamycin sulfate (2, 4 mg/kg; subcutaneous; once daily, six times a week for three weeks) inhibits the growth of bovine tubercle bacilli in the lung and spleen of mice. It also increases the survival rate of mice and inhibits the growth of K. pneumoniae DT-S in the lung, trachea, and blood in proportion to the dose administered (1.25, 5 mg/kg; subcutaneous; single dose at 3 hours after infection). These findings demonstrate the compound's in vivo antibacterial efficacy against systemic and respiratory infections.
Enzyme Assay
In vitro enzyme/receptor binding assays for Kanamycin sulfate involve measuring its binding to the bacterial ribosome. Kanamycin binds to the 30S ribosomal subunit. Specifically, the antibiotic is located between the 16S rRNA and S12 protein within the 30S subunit. Binding assays can be performed using purified ribosomes or ribosomal subunits and radiolabeled Kanamycin to determine the binding affinity. These assays confirm the mechanism of action as a ribosomal inhibitor. The compound's ability to inhibit protein synthesis can also be assessed using cell-free translation assays.
Cell Assay
Cell Line: mycobacteria Ravenel, Kirchbergand, H37Rv, H2, and BCG.
Concentration: 0.1-100 μg/mL
Incubation Time: 2 weeks
Result: demonstrated strong antibacterial activity against multiple mycobacterium strains (H37Rv, H2, H37RvR-PAS, Ravenel, and BCG), with MICs of 1 μg/mL and 5 μg/mL for the Kirchbergand strain, respectively.
In vitro cellular assays for Kanamycin sulfate typically involve determining the minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) against a panel of bacterial strains. The broth microdilution method is the standard assay format. Bacterial cultures are grown in appropriate media and exposed to serial dilutions of the compound. After incubation, the MIC is determined as the lowest concentration that inhibits visible bacterial growth. Kanamycin sulfate shows good antibacterial activity against mycobacteria with MICs of 1-5 μg/mL. Time-kill kinetics assays may also be performed to evaluate the bactericidal activity.
Animal Protocol
Animal Model: Model of infected bovine tubercle bacilli (Ravenel strain) in inbred strain normal mice (14–16 g)[1].
Dosage: 2, 4 mg/kg
Administration: Subcutaneous injection; once daily, 6 times a week for 3 weeks.
Result: demonstrated a notable impact on preventing the in vivo spread of tuberculosis, particularly in mouse lungs.
In vivo animal models for Kanamycin sulfate typically involve infecting mice with pathogenic bacteria such as Mycobacterium tuberculosis or Klebsiella pneumoniae, followed by administration of the compound. In the bovine tubercle bacilli (Ravenel strain) infected mouse model, Kanamycin sulfate is administered subcutaneously at doses of 2 or 4 mg/kg once daily, six times a week for three weeks. Efficacy is assessed by measuring bacterial load in the lungs and spleen, as well as survival rates. Other models may involve K. pneumoniae infection with single-dose administration.
ADME/Pharmacokinetics
Kanamycin sulfate is an aminoglycoside sulfate salt with a molecular weight of 582.575 g/mol and a molecular formula of C18H38N4O15S. It is derived from Streptomyces kanamyceticus and is an antibiotic complex composed of three components: the major component kanamycin A and minor components kanamycin B and C. The drug binds irreversibly to the bacterial 30S ribosomal subunit, inhibiting protein synthesis. Its pharmacokinetic profile is similar to that of Kanamycin base, with rapid absorption after intramuscular injection and poor oral absorption.
Toxicity/Toxicokinetics
Kanamycin sulfate is an aminoglycoside antibiotic with well-characterized toxicity, including nephrotoxicity and ototoxicity. These adverse effects are associated with its accumulation in the kidneys and inner ear. The drug can cause renal tubular damage and hearing loss, which may be irreversible. Toxicity is dose-dependent and is more likely with prolonged use or in patients with pre-existing renal impairment. Kanamycin sulfate should be used with caution and monitored closely for signs of toxicity. Its safety profile is similar to other aminoglycosides such as gentamicin and streptomycin.
