Overview

Vancomycin Hydrochloride is a tricyclic glycopeptide antibiotic widely used in microbiological and pharmaceutical research for its strong activity against Gram-positive bacteria, including Staphylococcus and Streptococcus species. It exerts its antibacterial effect by inhibiting bacterial cell wall synthesis, resulting in growth inhibition under laboratory conditions.

Due to its well-defined mechanism and resistance profile, vancomycin hydrochloride is frequently employed as a reference compound in antimicrobial research, resistance mechanism studies, and assay development.

Applications

  • Microbiology research focused on Gram-positive bacteria

  • Studies of bacterial cell wall synthesis and resistance mechanisms

  • Pharmaceutical R&D involving glycopeptide antibiotics

  • Reference standard in antibiotic potency and susceptibility assays

  • Educational demonstrations in microbiology laboratories

Mechanism of Action

Vancomycin inhibits cell wall synthesis by binding to the D-Ala-D-Ala terminus of peptidoglycan precursors, preventing proper cell wall assembly and bacterial growth in susceptible organisms.
