Description
Pristinamycin is a high-purity antibiotic compound with a minimum assay of 98 %, intended for microbiological use. It is identified by CAS number 270076-60-3 and the empirical formula C₄₅H₅₄N₈O₁₀, with a molar mass of 866,96 g/mol. The material is supplied as a 10 mg fill in glass, giving laboratories a compact quantity for stock solutions, selective media work and related culture protocols. Identity and purity data from manufacturer Carl ROTH support its role as a defined reference antibiotic in research and quality-control settings. Pristinamycin is suited to susceptibility testing setups, method development and panels that require a consistent streptogramin-type standard. The stated minimum purity and clearly documented molecular parameters help ensure reproducible preparation of working concentrations. As a specialised microbiology reagent, it complements broader antibiotic collections used in environmental, food and clinical laboratory workflows. Careful weighing and handling according to good laboratory practice are recommended when preparing dilutions from this solid material for plate or broth applications.

Questions about Pristinamycin, min. 98 %, for microbiology, 10 mg, glass
What is this article?
Pristinamycin, min. 98 %, for microbiology, 10 mg, glass is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Carl Roth for laboratory use. It sits in Antibiotics & antimycotics, inside Biochemicals & reagents, in Microbiology lab supplies.
An antibiotic or an antimycotic for laboratory use is specified by potency, often micrograms per milligram, and by the spectrum it is used for in media. A hydrate and a free base differ in mass. Sterile solutions ready for culture and the dry powder are different articles. This is not a medicine for a patient.
A biochemical is a molecule of life, sold as a reagent: an amino acid, a sugar, a nucleotide, a lipid, an enzyme, an antibiotic. The difference from a bulk chemical is that the use is a biological one, and the impurities that matter are the ones that change that use. An enzyme is specified by activity, not only by mass. An antibiotic is specified by potency. Papers are on PubMed. Structures are on PubChem. Strains and lines that consume these reagents are at ATCC.
