Vancomycin

Manufactured by GlaxoSmithKline
Visit Supplier

Vancomycin is a glycopeptide antibiotic used in the treatment of various bacterial infections. It is primarily used against Gram-positive bacteria, including Staphylococcus aureus and Clostridium difficile. Vancomycin functions by inhibiting cell wall synthesis in susceptible bacteria, leading to cell lysis and death.

Vancomycin MIC Determination by Broth Microdilution

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The MIC of vancomycin against the isolates was determined by broth microdilution method as recommended by the CLSI (2016). Standard powders of the antibiotic (vancomycin) were obtained from GlaxoSmithKline Pharmaceutical Companies. The MIC of vancomycin against the isolates was determined using the procedure described by Wayne (2002) . Readings were taken and recorded according to the guidelines of CLSI ( 2016).

Titanium (IV) nitrate tetrahydrate (Ti(NO3)4.H2O, ≥99.9%), pure grade of polyethylene glycol (PEG), analytical-grade acetone (anhydrous, ≥99.0%), ethanol (96%), 3% of glutaraldehyde in phosphate, 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide (MTT), lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) rhodamine 123 dye, acridine orange/ethidium bromide (AO/EtBr) dye, dichloro dihydro fluorescein diacetate (DCFH-DA), and anhydrous sodium sulfate were acquired from Sigma-Aldrich (Hamburg, Germany). Ciprofloxacin (5 μg/disc, MASTDISCS™, Mast Diagnostics Ltd.), vancomycin (Glaxo SmithKline Pharmaceuticals Ltd.), and gentamycin (Alpha Laboratories Ltd.) were purchased from local drug stores.

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
