Gentamicin Antibody (1.BB.894) is a mouse monoclonal IgG2a antibody that detects Gentamicin protein of non-species reactive by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). Anti-Gentamicin antibody (1.BB.894) is available as a non-conjugated isotype antibody. Gentamicin, an aminoglycoside antibiotic derived from Micromonospora purpurea and related species, plays a crucial role in treating various bacterial infections, particularly those caused by Gram-negative bacteria. Gentamicin′s mechanism of action involves binding to the bacterial 30S ribosomal subunit, which inhibits the translocation of peptidyl-tRNA from the A-site to the P-site, leading to misreading of the genetic code. This disruption prevents the synthesis of essential proteins necessary for bacterial growth and survival. Gentamicin′s unique property of being heat-stable allows retention of efficacy even after autoclaving, making Gentamicin particularly valuable in the preparation of certain microbiological growth media. With a molecular weight of 477.596 g/mol, Gentamicin must be administered intravenously, intramuscularly, or topically, as oral intake results in inactivation during absorption in the small intestine.
