Bioactivity | Methicillin sodium salt (Meticillin sodium) is a β-lactam, semi-synthetic antibiotic related to penicillin antibiotic. Methicillin sodium salt inhibits penicillin-binding proteins involved in the synthesis of peptidoglycan. Methicillin sodium salt inhibits S. aureus with a MIC value of 2.1 μg/mL. Methicillin sodium salt can be used for the research of inflammation[1][2]. |
Invitro | Methicillin sodium salt (100 μg/mL; 18 h) kills S. aureus after incubation intracellular for 18 hours[1]. Cell Viability Assay[1] Cell Line: |
