Immobilized Cefalexin

Cephalexin is a cephalosporin antibiotic which disrupts the synthesis of the peptidoglycan layer of bacterial cell walls. Peptidoglycan synthesis is aided by transpeptidase known as pencillin-binding proteins (PBP). Cephalexin inhibits PBP3 and other penicillin-binding proteins (PBPs). 

Immobilized Cephalexin  is made by covalently coupling cephalexin to 6% cross linked agarose and is used for isolating cephalexin binding proteins, receptors and specific antibodies.

Features:

• Cephalexin coupled to 6% cross-linked Agarose

• Coupling is covalent through linkage of amino or carboxyl group depending upon the antibiotic to the pre-activated agarose.

• Available in 5 ml and 10 ml sizes 

• Immobilized Cephalexin is used for purification of cephalexin binding proteins or receptors or specific antibodies.
