Overview

Streptomycin Sulfate is an aminoglycoside-class antibiotic widely used in microbiological and pharmaceutical research. It exerts its antibacterial effect by binding to the 30S ribosomal subunit, leading to misreading of mRNA and inhibition of protein synthesis, which results in bactericidal activity under laboratory conditions.

The compound demonstrates activity against a broad range of Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria, as well as mycobacteria, making it a valuable reference antibiotic in studies of bacterial physiology, protein synthesis, and antimicrobial resistance.

Applications

  • Microbiological research and method development

  • Studies of bacterial protein synthesis and ribosomal function

  • Antimicrobial susceptibility and resistance research

  • Selective or reference agent in bacterial culture systems

Mechanism of Action

Streptomycin binds to the 30S ribosomal subunit, disrupting initiation complex formation and causing translational errors. This interference with protein synthesis leads to inhibition of bacterial growth and cell death in susceptible organisms.
