colistin a

Colistin A is an antibiotic generated by certain strains of the bacteria Paenibacillus polymyxa. Colistin is a mixture of the cyclic polypeptides colistin A and B and belongs to the class of polypeptide antibiotics known as polymyxins. Colistin is effecti

Colistin A sulfate hydrate, a key constituent of the polymyxin antibiotic Colistin, effectively combats infections from challenging gram-negative bacteria [1].

Colistin-1,3,5,9-tetramethanesulfonic A acid is used for the treatment of serious infections due to selected aerobic Gram-negative pathogens in patients with limited treatment options.

Colistin sulfate (Colistin sulfate (1066-17-7 free base)) is a cyclic polypeptide antibiotic from Bacillus colistinus, composed of Polymyxins E1 and E2.

Histatin 8, a salivary antimicrobial peptide derived from proteolytic fragments of histatin 3 and histatin 5, exhibits activity against A. baumannii strains, both colistin-susceptible and -resistant, at a concentration of 32 µg/ml. Additionally, it is effective against C. albicans and C. tropicalis, with minimum inhibitory concentrations (MICs) of 1 and 5 mg/ml, respectively.
