Description supplémentaire:

Colistin sulphate (CAS 1264-72-8, molecular formula C52H98N16O13·H2SO4) is a polymyxin-class antibiotic derived from Bacillus polymyxa that disrupts Gram-negative bacterial cell membranes. It is used as a veterinary feed additive and therapeutic for livestock, poultry, and aquaculture infections such as E. coli and Salmonella, and in human medicine as a last-resort treatment for multidrug-resistant infections including Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Acinetobacter baumannii; the WHO classifies it as a Critically Important Antimicrobial, and its use is regulated with enforced withdrawal periods in animals. Supplied by Ningbo Pangs Chem rather than manufactured in-house, with samples available, it is distributed to markets across North America, Europe, Australasia, the Middle East, and Africa; storage at 2-8°C, away from light, is recommended.
