Produktinformation

• Name: Nafcilllin sodium monohydrate
• Marke: Biosynth
• Beschreibung: Nafcillin sodium monohydrate is a beta-lactam antibiotic, which is derived from the penicillin class of antimicrobials. It is specifically a semi-synthetic penicillin and is commonly sourced through chemical synthesis to enhance its stability and spectrum of activity. Nafcillin primarily exerts its bactericidal effects by inhibiting bacterial cell wall synthesis. It achieves this through its strong affinity for penicillin-binding proteins (PBPs), which are essential for maintaining the bacterial cell wall structure. By disrupting the formation of peptidoglycan cross-links, nafcillin effectively weakens the bacterial cell wall, leading to cell lysis and death, especially in gram-positive bacteria such as Staphylococcus aureus, including methicillin-sensitive strains (MSSA).
