Biological Activity

Description Ampicillin(D-(-)-α-Aminobenzylpenicillin sodium salt) is a beta-lactam antibiotic that is part of the aminopenicillin family.
Targets
beta-lactamase [1]
In vitro

Belonging to the penicillin group of beta-lactam antibiotics, ampicillin is able to penetrate Gram-positive and some Gram-negative bacteria. Ampicillin acts as a competitive inhibitor of the enzyme transpeptidase, which is needed by bacteria to make their cell walls. Ampicillin inhibits the third and final stage of bacterial cell wall synthesis in binary fission, which ultimately leads to cell lysis.
