Product Information

• Name: Clindamycin-2,4-diphosphate
• Brand: Biosynth
• Description: Clindamycin-2,4-diphosphate is a phosphorylated derivative of the antibiotic clindamycin, which is a semi-synthetic lincosamide antibiotic originally derived from Streptomyces lincolnensis. Its mode of action involves the inhibition of bacterial protein synthesis by binding to the 50S ribosomal subunit, thereby preventing peptide chain elongation during translation. This mechanism effectively disrupts protein production in susceptible bacteria, leading to their growth inhibition or death.
