Carbenicillin Disodium Salt is a broad-spectrum antibiotic that is used in biotechnology to select for and screen for cells that have been transformed with Ampicillin resistant genes. It is also used to kill bacteria in cell culture media. Carbenicillin Disodium Salt is effective against a wide range of bacteria, including gram-negative and gram-positive bacteria. It works by binding to the cell walls of bacteria and causing them to burst. This eventually leads to the death of the bacteria.
