Plasmocin™ is used to cure cell lines infected by mycoplasma and related cell wall-less bacteria.Plasmocin™ can also be used as a routine addition in liquid media to prevent mycoplasma and more generally bacterial contamination in small and large animal cell cultures.
Plasmocin™ is a well-established antimycoplasma reagent. It contains two bactericidal components strongly active against mycoplasmas that allow their elimination in only 2 weeks.
The first component acts on the protein synthesis machinery while the second acts on the DNA replication. These two specific and separate targets are found only in mycoplasmas and many other bacteria and are completely absent in eukaryotic cells.
- Active on both free mycoplasmas and intracellular forms
- No resistance in liquid cultures of mycoplasmas
- No apparent adverse effect on cellular metabolism
- Active at low concentrations on a broad range of Gram positive and negative bacteria
- Eliminates mycoplasma in as little as 2 weeks
- Treat up to 25 cell lines in T75
Plasmocin™ is provided as a yellow solution at different concentrations:
- 2.5 mg/ml (Plasmocin™ Prophylactic)
