Product Information

• Name: 1-Chloro-4-methylpentan-2-one
• Brand: Biosynth
• Description: 1-Chloro-4-methylpentan-2-one is a chemical compound that inhibits bacterial growth by binding to the 50S ribosomal subunit. It has been shown to inhibit methicillin resistance in Staphylococcus aureus, and also has an antibacterial effect on other gram-negative bacteria. 1-Chloro-4-methylpentan-2-one is active against both gram positive and gram negative organisms, but the spectrum of activity is limited because it is not active against acid fast bacteria such as Mycobacterium tuberculosis or Mycobacterium avium complex. 1CMTD has been shown to be stable in its crystalline form and can be administered orally.
