Product Information

• Name: Althiomycin
• Brand: Biosynth
• Description: Althiomycin is a macrolide antibiotic, which is derived from Actinobacteria, specifically the genus Streptomyces. Its mode of action involves binding to the 50S subunit of the bacterial ribosome, thereby inhibiting protein synthesis. This mechanism effectively suppresses bacterial growth by interfering with the translation process, ultimately leading to pathogen elimination.
