Kanamycin, also known as kanamycin A, is an aminoglycoside bacteriocidal antibiotic, available in by mouth, intravenous, and intramuscular forms, and used to treat a wide variety of infections. Kanamycin is isolated from the bacterium Streptomyces kanamyceticus and its most commonly used form is kanamycin sulfate. Kanamycin interacts with the 30S subunit of prokaryotic ribosomes. It gives birth to substantial amounts of mistranslation and indirectly inhibits translocation during protein synthesis. Price and Availability

Kanamycin sulfate, purity 98%, is in stock. Current shipping out time is about 2 weeks after order is received.
