Product Information

• Name: Norvancomycin trifluoroacetate
• Synonyms: N-Demethylvancomycin trifluoroacetate
• Brand: Biosynth
• Description: Norvancomycin trifluoroacetate is an antibiotic compound, which is a glycopeptide derived from the bacterium Amycolatopsis orientalis. Its mode of action involves inhibiting bacterial cell wall synthesis. Specifically, Norvancomycin disrupts the cross-linking of peptidoglycan layers in the bacterial cell wall by binding to the D-alanyl-D-alanine terminus of cell wall precursors. This disruption weakens the bacterial cell wall, ultimately leading to cell lysis and death, thereby exerting a bactericidal effect.
