Normocin™ is an innovative antibiotic formulation designed to prevent cell lines from mycoplasma, bacterial and fungal contaminations. Normocin™ can be routinely added in the cell culture medium in combination with Penicillin/Streptomycin to broaden the anti-bacterial spectrum.
Key Features:
Active against both Gram+ and Gram- bacteria, mycoplasmas and fungi
Can be used in combination with Penicillin/Streptomycin
Non-toxic to the cell line being treated
Normocin™ contains three compounds. Two of these compounds act on Gram+ bacteria, Gram- bacteria, and mycoplasmas by blocking DNA and protein synthesis. The third compound eradicates yeasts and fungi by disrupting ionic exchange through the cell membrane.
