Información del producto

• Nombre: D-Gluconic acid lithium salt
• Sinónimos: Lithium D-gluconate
• Marca: Biosynth
• Descripción: D-Gluconic acid lithium salt is a cationic compound that has been shown to inhibit the growth of bacteria by forming a covalent linkage with the ribose in RNA. This inhibits the enzyme activity of the cell and prevents transcription and replication. The chemical formula for this compound is CH3CH2OH-CH2COOH+Li+→CH3CH2OLi+H2O, where D-gluconic acid is carboxylate anion and lithium ion is cation. Electrophoresis studies have shown that this compound binds to proteins, which may be due to its hydrophilic properties. X-ray diffraction data has revealed that it forms a crystalline structure. This compound can be used as an antimicrobial agent against Group P2 Gram-positive cocci (e.g., Enterococcus faecalis) and other infectious diseases such as Staphylococcus aureus, Streptococcus pneumonia
