Description

Phenylethyl b-D-galactopyranoside is a galactose compound that can be hydrolyzed by esterases in the presence of water. It is toxic to organisms, such as E. coli and S. typhimurium, at high concentrations and can be used for the treatment of infections caused by these bacteria. Phenylethyl b-D-galactopyranoside has been shown to have a permeability effect on cells, which may be due to its ability to inhibit the production of ATP in the cell membrane by blocking specific enzymes that are responsible for ATP synthesis.
