Application Notes
Chloramphenicol is derived from Streptomyces Venezuelae and has a broad spectrum of activity. It is often used for bacterial selection in molecular biology. Chloramphenicol is effective against grampositive and gram-negative bacteria. It functions by binding to the 50S ribosomal unit to prevent aminoacyl tRNA from binding to the ribosome which prevents elongation of protein chain.
