Description

Rifamycin sodium (Rifamycin SV monosodium) belongs to the family of ansamycin antibiotics and has been isolated from the fermentation of A. mediterranei or its mutants. Rifamycin sodium displays a broad spectrum of antibiotic activity against Gram-positive and, to a lesser extent, Gram-negative bacteria[1].


Rifamycin Sodium is a sodium salt of rifamycin, an antibiotic produced by Streptomyces mediterranei which is used to treat mycobacterium infections.
