Protection against mycoplasma, bacteria and fungi

Normocin® is an innovative antibiotic formulation designed to prevent cell lines from mycoplasma, bacterial and fungal contaminations.
Normocin® can be routinely added in the cell culture medium in combination with Penicillin/Streptomycin to broaden the anti-bacterial spectrum.

Key Features:

  • Active against both Gram+ and Gram- bacteria, mycoplasmas and fungi
  • Can be used in combination with Penicillin/Streptomycin
  • Non-toxic to the cell line being treated

Normocin® contains three compounds. Two of these compounds act on Gram+ bacteria, Gram- bacteria, and mycoplasmas by blocking DNA and protein synthesis. The third compound eradicates yeasts and fungi by disrupting ionic exchange through the cell membrane.

Note: Normocin® is a trademark of InvivoGen registered with the United States Patent and Trademark Office.
