Pedicellin is a biochemical compound that belongs to the class of antibiotics. It is derived from a species of the Penicillium genus, which is a well-known group of fungi used in the production of antibiotics. Pedicellin has been studied for its antibacterial properties, particularly its potential ability to combat gram-positive bacteria. Similar to penicillin, Pedicellin works by inhibiting the synthesis of bacterial cell walls, ultimately leading to the destruction of bacterial cells. However, Pedicellin is less widely used or commercially known compared to other penicillin-based antibiotics, such as penicillin G.
