Carbenicillin (Disodium), USP Grade

Carbenicillin Disodium is a superior β-lactam antibiotic optimized for molecular biology and plant transformation research. More chemically stable than ampicillin, it delivers consistent plasmid selection with reduced satellite colony formation and extended antibiotic activity in liquid or solid media. Its compatibility with plant regeneration systems also makes it a preferred reagent for post-transformationAgrobacteriumelimination. From recombinant bacterial expression to cleanin vitroculture, GoldBio’s Carbenicillin Disodium ensures reproducibility and reliability across diverse laboratory workflows.Carbenicillin is a member of the penicillin β-lactam antibiotics. However, unlike most β-lactams, carbenicillin disodium is limited to primarily gram-negative bacteria includingPseudomonas aeruginosaand common enteric species. It can be used in selection protocols and is often preferred over ampicillin due to its increased stability. This allows for less contamination of unwanted bacterial colonies. In addition, carbenicillin has been used to regulate bacterial growth in plants, yielding low regeneration frequencies. It can be used in genetic transformation
