Fungin™
The Solution for Fungal Contaminations
Description
Fungin™ is a new soluble form of Pimaricin, a polyene introduced in the 1950’s as an anti-fungal agent. This antimycotic compound kills yeasts, molds and fungi by disrupting ionic exchange through the cell membrane.
Fungin™ is cell culture tested, and may be added to media containing commonly used antibacterial agents.
Fungin™ is a highly stable compound. It is shipped at room temperature and is still active after 6 days at 37°C. Fungin™ is water soluble unlike Amphotericin B which needs to be dissolved in toxic deoxycholate.
Fungin™ exhibits no cytotoxicity to cells being treated, and no deleterious effects on cell metabolism.
The active concentration of Fungin™ can be stepped up from 10 μg/ml to 50 μg/ml if needed without displaying any negative effects.
Contents
Fungin™ is provided as a pale yellow solution at a concentration of 10 mg/ml. One 1.5 ml vial is able to treat 300 ml to 1.5 liters of medium depending on the severity of contamination.
Fungin™ is shipped at room temperature, store at -20°C. Fungin™ is stable 18 months at 4°C or -20°C.
