• Brand: Biosynth
• Description: Omega-(Trifluoroacetyl)acetophenone is a chemical compound that has biological properties and can be used as a reagent. It binds to the penicillin-binding protein, which inhibits the production of cell wall enzymes and prevents bacterial growth. Omega-(Trifluoroacetyl)acetophenone also binds to receptors on the outside of bacteria, inhibiting the production of proteins necessary for bacterial growth. This compound has been shown to inhibit the growth of Staphylococcus aureus, Escherichia coli, Klebsiella pneumoniae, and Streptococcus pyogenes in vitro.; ; This molecule also has synergistic effects with other antibiotics such as penicillin and ampicillin. When combined with these antibiotics, omega-(Trifluoroacetyl)acetophenone was found to be more effective at inhibiting bacterial growth than either drug alone.; Omega-(Trifluoroacetyl)acetophenone also
