Molarity Calculator

Kanamycin (Kanamycin A) is an orally active antibacterial (gram-negative/positive bacteria) agent, inhibits translocation and causes misencoding by binding to the 70 S ribosomal subunit. Kanamycin shows good inhibitory activity to both M. tuberculosis (sensitive and drug-resistant ) and K. pneumonia, which can be used in studies of tuberculosis and pneumonia.

Cell Viability Assay[1]

Cell Line: mycobacteria H37Rv, H2, H37RvR-PAS, Ravenel, Kirchbergand and BCG.
Concentration: 0.1-100 μg/mL
Incubation Time: 2 weeks
Result: Showed good antibacterial activity to various strains of mycobacteria (H37Rv, H2, H37RvR-PAS, Ravenel, and BCG) with MICs were 1 μg/mL and 5 μg/mL for strain of Kirchbergand.
In Vivo

Kanamycin (2, 4 mg/kg; s.c.; once daily, 6 times a week for 3 weeks) inhibits growth of bovine tubercle bacilli in lung and spleen of mice[1].
Kanamycin (1.25, 5 mg/kg; s.c.; single (at 3 h after infection)) inhibits the multiplication of K. pneumonia DT-S in lung, trachea, and blood of mice and in proportion to the dose administration, and also increases the survival rate of mice[2].

MedChemExpress (MCE) has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.

Animal Model: Inbred strain normal mice (14-16 g; bovine tubercle bacilli (Ravenel strain) infected model)[1].
Dosage: 2, 4 mg/kg
Administration: Subcutaneous injection; once daily, 6 times a week for 3 weeks.
Result: Exerted a marked effect to inhibit the multiplication of the tuberculosis in vivo, especially in the lung of mice.
Animal Model: Slc:ICR male mice (4-week-old; 18-24 g; K. pneumonia DT-S infection model (by the aerosol method))[2].
Dosage: 1.25, 5 mg/kg
Administration: Subcutaneous administration; single (at 3 h after infection).
Result: Suppressed the growth of K. pneumonia DT-S in lung, trachea, and blood in proportion to the dose administration.
Resulted in 90% survival at 6 days after infection (negative control group: all died within 4 days), and cleared the K. pneumonia DT-S from lung, trachea, and blood of mice within 48 h (when dosage at 5 mg/kg).

Help & FAQs
  • Do most proteins show cross-species activity?

    Species cross-reactivity must be investigated individually for each product. Many human cytokines will produce a nice response in mouse cell lines, and many mouse proteins will show activity on human cells. Other proteins may have a lower specific activity when used in the opposite species.
