    Lydicamycin

    $592.72 - $2,068.72

    Lydicamycin belongs to a novel structural class with highly selective antibiotic activity. Recent research has shown that Lydicamycin and the related metabolites, TPU-0037A and TPU-0037C, are highly active against MRSA. Lydicamycin is also closely related to BN 4515N which was isolated from a strain of Microtetraspora as a neuritogenic agent.

    Lydicamycin is soluble in ethanol, methanol, DMF or DMSO. Poor water solubility.

    Molecular Formula C47H74N4O10
