Antibiotic User Manual

Introduction

Antibiotics refer to a class of secondary metabolites with anti-pathogen or other activities produced by microorganisms (including bacteria, fungi, actinomycetes) or higher animals and plants in the process of life.

Mechanism

The bacteriostatic or bactericidal effect of antibiotics is mainly aimed at killing the mechanism that "bacteria have but humans (or other animals and plants) do not"。

Application

1)Screening of stably transfected cell lines

    The most common application of antibiotics in molecular biology experiments is to screen and maintain cultured prokaryotic or eukaryotic cells carrying resistance genes.The corresponding resistance gene is introduced into the cell by gene recombination technology, so that it can acquire the drug resistance of the resistance gene, so as to achieve the purpose of screening or maintaining growth.

    2) Cell culture

    Cell contamination is almost an inevitable problem encountered in the process of cell culture. Bacteria and fungi are extremely common pollutants in cell culture experiments. Antibiotics can be used in cell culture experiments to prevent or treat cell contamination by fungi and bacteria.

    3) Plant protectant

    Fungi and bacteria can cause a variety of plant diseases. Another broad application of antibiotics is as plant protection agents. At a certain dose concentration, it is used alone or in combination to protect plants from the harm of pathogenic infection.

    4) Animal intestinal flora research

    Animal gastrointestinal microbes can participate in a variety of host metabolic processes and play a crucial role in maintaining the body's healthy homeostasis. Specific types of antibiotics can interfere or regulate the number, types and activities of animal intestinal flora, so as to study the impact of changes in intestinal microorganisms on certain metabolic processes.

    Product usage advice

    Antibiotics are physiologically active substances, and various antibiotics usually act on pathogenic bacteria at very low concentrations, but the specific working concentration needs to be changed according to cell type, medium, growth conditions, cell metabolic rate and experimental purpose. Therefore, it is recommended to establish a kill curve, that is, a dose-response curve, to determine the optimal screening concentration for the experimental system used for the first time.
