    Kanamycin B Sulfate, EvoPure®

    $87.00

    Kanamycin B Sulfate, EvoPure® is a highly purified (≥99.0% pure) sulfate salt form of Kanamycin B. Kanamycin B and C are minor components of the Kanamycin complex, with Kanamycin A being the major component. 

    Kanamycn B is a close structural analog of DAA2 and it has an unmethylated 3’-amino group so it can be tested as a surrogate substrate for 3’-deamination.

    Kanamycin is a semi-synthetic, broad-spectrum aminoglycoside antibiotic. Kanamycin was isolated from the soil bacterium Streptomyces kanamyceticus in 1957 by Hamao Umezawa at the institute of Microbial Chemistry (Tokyo). Kanamycin inhibits protein synthesis in bacteria and Mycoplasma. It is used to select for transformants (bacteria, fungi, plant, mammalian) which have been successfully transformed with a plasmid containing a Kanamycin resistance gene. 

    Kanamycin B Sulfate, EvoPure® is freely soluble in water. It is practically insoluble in ethanol, DMSO, acetone, chloroform, ether and ethyl acetate.

    We also offer:

    • Kanamycin Sulfate (K008)
    • Kanamycin Acid Sulfate, BP (K004)
    • Kanamycin Acid Sulfate, EP (K029)
    • Kanamycin A sulfate, EvoPure® (K013)

    Kanamycin EvoPure® products are available as highly purified fractions. Each compound is fully characterized by spectral analysis and a comprehensive C of A is provided which includes HPLC, MS, HNMR and FTIR data. They can be used to study the effects of a specific fraction.
