Molecular Formula : C14H24N2O7 · 2HCl · 5H2O


It exerts bactericidal effect by inhibiting protein synthesis at prokaryotic ribosomal level. It binds to 30S ribosomal subunit and interferes with the translocation of peptidyl tRNA, thereby inhibiting protein synthesis.
In cell culture, it is used as an anti-bacterial agent to prevent contamination. Spectinomycin is used as a selection agent for resistant bacteria and plant cells.

Directions :

For cell culture applications, spectinomycin is used at concentration of 7.5 to 20mg/L.
Preparation instructions:
Spectinomycin dihydrochloride pentahydrate is soluble in water (50mg/ml). Spectinomycin solutions are sterilized by filtering through a sterile membrane filter with a porosity of 0.22micron or less.
