Produktinformation

• Name: 4-Epichlortetracycline
• Marke: Biosynth
• Beschreibung: 4-Epichlortetracycline is a metabolite of chlortetracycline, which is derived from the Streptomyces genus of bacteria. It is structurally related to tetracycline antibiotics but differs specifically in its epimerization at the fourth position. This alteration results in a product with significantly reduced antibacterial activity compared to its parent compound. The mechanism of action primarily involves ribosomal binding, inhibiting protein synthesis in susceptible bacteria; however, the epimerization here compromises this efficacy.
