Paneticin G418, 50 mg/ml
Paneticin G418, 50 mg/ml – Selection Antibiotic (Geneticin)
Paneticin G418, 50 mg/ml, selection antibiotic for neomycin-resistant cells, ready-to-use
RUO (P06-16220)
Paneticin G418 (geneticin), 50 mg/ml is a ready-to-use aminoglycoside selection antibiotic. G418 blocks polypeptide synthesis by inhibiting the elongation step in prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells, and at higher concentrations it kills eukaryotic cells that do not carry a resistance gene. It is widely used to select and maintain cells transfected with a neomycin-resistance (neo/nptII) marker. Optimal concentrations vary by cell line, typically 200-500 µg/ml for mammalian cells.
Reliable G418 selection, ready to use. A 50 mg/ml geneticin solution for selecting and maintaining neomycin-resistant cells.
