Henricin

CAS: 107783-46-0

Henricin is an antibacterial product, which is derived from bacteriophage sources. It functions through a unique mode of action, targeting and degrading the structural components of bacterial cell walls, specifically during the synthesis phase. This results in compromised bacterial structural integrity leading to cell lysis. Henricin's applications span a variety of scientific and medical fields, primarily in the treatment and study of bacterial infections resistant to conventional antibiotics. Its specificity for bacterial targets makes it a valuable tool in microbiological research, enabling scientists to dissect bacterial growth mechanisms without affecting eukaryotic cells. Furthermore, its use is being explored in agricultural settings as a biocontrol agent to reduce pathogenic bacteria in crops, thereby enhancing yield without relying on chemical pesticides. Henricin’s development represents a significant advancement in the utilization of phage technology, offering potential solutions to the growing challenge of antibiotic resistance.
