Description

White powderChEBI: Organic potassium salt of benzylpenicillin.


Benzylpenicillin potassiumwas the first crystalline penicillin produced on an industrial scale , . It is produced in the pure state by the addition of phenylacetate to a culture of Penicillium chrysogenum. The crystalline benzylpenicillin potassium contains 1598 U/mg.


Penicillin G potassium salt is also known as Potassium benzylpenicillin, it is white crystalline powder, odorless or slightly specific odor, hygroscopic. Soluble in water, physiological saline, glucose solution. The aqueous solution of it is easy to fail when placed at room temperature, and it will fail rapidly in the presence of acid, alkali, oxidant, etc. Penicillin G potassium salt has good antibacterial effect on Streptococcus such as Streptococcus hemolyticus, Streptococcus pneumoniae and Staphylococcus without penicillinase.


ChEBI: Penicillin G potassium salt is organic potassium salt of benzylpenicillin. It is an antibiotic substance produced by Penicillium sp. Antibacterial. It contains a benzylpenicillin(1-).


Penicillin G Potassium is the potassium salt form of penicillin G, a broad-spectrum penicillin antibiotic. Penicillin G potassium binds to penicillin binding proteins (PBP), the enzymes that catalyze the synthesis of peptidoglycan, which is a critical component of the bacterial cell wall. This leads to the interruption of cell wall synthesis, consequently leading to bacterial cell growth inhibition and cell lysis.

Penicillin G potassium salt Use and Manufacturing

Methods of Manufacturing

A series of experiments was carried out in which to 1000 ml of an activated- carbon-treated extract containing approximately 100, 000 Oxford Units Penicillin G per ml in n-butylacetate, a 50percent (w/w) solution of KTo 1000 ml of an activated-carbon-treated extract containing approximately 100, 000 Oxford Units Penicillin G per ml (1 Oxford Unit equals circa 0.6 microgram of penicillin G) in n-butylacetate, a 30percent (w/w) solution of K

Uses

An antibiotic substance produced by Penicillium sp. Antibacterial.


Penicillin G is a narrow spectrum antibiotic derived from Streptococcus pneumoniae. Penicillin G potassium salt is used as a cell culture additive as an antibiotics. Use to inhibit the synthesis of bacterial cell walls by inhibition of the cell wall peptidoglycan chain cross-lining. It is the drug of choice for groups A, B, C and G streptococci, nonenterococcal group D streptococci, viridians group streptococci, and non-penicillinase producing staphylococcus. The potassium salt has been used to study murosomes of staphylococci and the penicillin-induced lysis of Streptococcus mutans.

Drug Function and Efficacy

Penicillin has good antibacterial effect on hemolytic streptococci and other streptococci, Streptococcus pneumoniae and non-penicillinase-producing staphylococci. It has moderate antibacterial effect on enterococci. Neisseria gonorrhoeae, Neisseria meningitidis, Corynebacterium diphtheriae, Bacillus anthracis, Actinomyces bovis, Streptobacillus candida, Listeria monocytogenes, Leptospira and Treponema pallidum are sensitive to this product. This product also has certain antibacterial activity against Haemophilus influenzae and Bordetella pertussis, and other Gram-negative aerobic or facultative anaerobic bacteria are less sensitive to this product. This product has good antibacterial effect on Clostridium, Peptostreptococcus anaerobic bacteria and melanin-producing Bacteroides, but has poor antibacterial effect on Bacteroides fragilis. Penicillin exerts its bactericidal effect by inhibiting bacterial cell wall synthesis.

This ingredient has been used in drugs with the following functions (note: it does not mean that the ingredient itself has the following health functions)
