Name: Gentamicin C2b Sulfate, EvoPure®
Price: 594.00 USD

- Overview
  - Gentamicin C2b Sulfate, EvoPure® is one of several components in the Gentamicin C complex, along with Gentamicin C1 and C1a, the group C complex comprising ~ 80% of Gentamicin and has the highest degree of antimicrobial activity. The higher antimicrobial activity of the group C Gentamicins is thought to arise from the lack of hydroxy groups on the 3’ and 4’ positions of the purpurosamine (2-amino-hexose) fragments.
    EvoPure® products have been fully characterized by spectral analysis and are shipped with a comprehensive certificate of analysis containing lot-specific HPLC, MS, HNMR, and FTIR data.
