Clear solution
30%PEG400 0.5%Tween80 5%propylene glycol
30.0mg/ml Taking the 1 mL working solution as an example, add 300 μL of 100 mg/ml clarified PEG400 stock solution to 5 μL of Tween80, mix evenly to clarify it; add 50 μL Propylene glycol to the above system, mix evenly to clarify it; then continue to add 645 μL ddH2O to adjust the volume. to 1 mL. The mixed solution should be used immediately for optimal results. 
* <1 mg/ml means slightly soluble or insoluble.
* Please note that Selleck tests the solubility of all compounds in-house, and the actual solubility may differ slightly from published values. This is normal and is due to slight batch-to-batch variations.
* Room temperature shipping (Stability testing shows this product can be shipped without any cooling measures.)

Biological Activity

Description Linezolid (PNU-100766) is a synthetic antibiotic used for the treatment of serious infections.
In vitro

Linezolid inhibits initiation complex formation with either the 30S or the 70S ribosomal subunits from Escherichia coli. Linezolid inhibits complex formation with Staphylococcus aureus 70S tight-couple ribosomes. [1] Linezolid is a potent inhibitor of cell-free transcription-translation in E. coli, exhibiting 50% inhibitory concentrations (IC50s) of 1.8 mM. [2] Linezolid is an oxazolidinone, a new class of antibacterial agents with enhanced activity against pathogens. [3] Linezolid MICs vary slightly with the test method, laboratory, and significance attributed to thin hazes of bacterial survival, but all workers find that the susceptibility distributions are narrow and unimodal, with MIC values between 0.5 and 4 mg/L for streptococci, enterococci and staphylococci. Linezolid entails mutation of the 23S rRNA that forms the binding site. [4] Linezolid is an oxazolidinone whose mechanism of action involves inhibition of protein synthesis at a very early stage. Linezolid is added to 7H10 agar medium (Difco) supplemented with OADC (oleic acid, albumin, dextrose, and catalase) at 50°C to 56°C by doubling the dilutions to yield a final concentration of 0.125 μg/mL to 4 μg/mL. Linezolid shows excellent in vitro activity against all the strains tested (MICs ≤ 1 μg/ml), including those resistant to SIRE. [5]
