| Use of | Properties Name Gentamicin Synonym More Synonyms Gentamicin Biological Activity Related Catalog Research Areas >> Infection Signaling Pathways >> Anti-infection >> Bacterial In Vitro Gentamicin is a more effective in vitro bacterial inhibitor than combined penicillin-streptomycin, is nontoxic to tissue culture monolayers, and does not inhibit virus replication[2]. Gentamicin has been used with success as an additive in commercial mycology media to inhibit growth of bacteria and has been shown to be bactericidal for a wider range of organisms (Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Proteus sp., and Streptococcus faecalis) than penicillin and streptomycin[2]. Gentamicin does not interfere with the production of cytopathic effect by certain echoviruses and polioviruses in tissue culture, is nontoxic to Rhesus monkey kidney, HeLa, and human amnion cells, and is stable at autoclave temperatures[2]. Gentamicin is produced by various species of the genus Micromonospora[3]. Gentamicin C1a binds in the major groove of the A-site of the RNA[3]. References [1]. Xu W, et al.
