Ampicillin sodium salt is a reagent for transformed cells expressing beta-lactamase. It acts as a structural analogue of acyl-D-alanyl-D-alanine, acylates the transpeptidase enzyme and prevents the cross-linking of the peptidoglycan of the cell wall necessary for the growth of the bacterium.

The original Alfa Aesar product / item code or SKU reference has not changed as a part of the brand transition to Thermo Scientific Chemicals.

General Description

• Ampicillin sodium salt is a semi-synthetic derivative of penicillin with a broad-spectrum antibacterial activity against several species, including Bacillus subtilis, Staphylococcus aureus, Escherichia coli, and Ralstonia solanacearum

• It can inhibit bacterial cell wall synthesis by binding to penicillin-binding proteins, inhibiting peptidoglycan synthesis, which is an essential component of the bacterial cell wall

Application

• Ampicillin sodium salt has been used as a reagent for transformed cells that express β-lactamase

• It can be used to select for ampicillin resistance in mutated and transformed cells

• Ampicillin sodium salt acts as a structural analog of acyl-D-alanyl-D-alanine, acylates the transpeptidase enzyme preventing the cross-linking of the cell wall peptidoglycan, which is necessary for the growth of the bacterium
