Product Information

• Name: Validamycin (technical)
• Brand: Biosynth
• Description: Validamycin (technical) is an antifungal agent, which is a natural product derived from the actinomycete Streptomyces hygroscopicus. This compound functions through a specific mode of action by inhibiting the enzyme trehalase, crucial for the breakdown of trehalose into glucose. Consequently, this disruption in the carbohydrate metabolism weakens fungal structure and growth.
