MedKoo Cat#: 571102 | Name: Echinocandin B

Description:

WARNING: This product is for research use only, not for human or veterinary use.

Echinocandin B is a cyclic hexapeptide echinocandin antibiotic isolated from Aspergillus nidulans var. echinulatus with specific anti-yeast activity. It inhibits beta-1,3-glucan synthesis and thus attacks the cell wall of fungi.
