APPLICATIONS

Streptomycin is a Water-soluble antibiotic drug that is principally used for the treatment of tuberculosis in conjunction with other drugs like isonicotinic acid hydrazide (isoniazid). Aminoglycoside is any of a group of antibiotics derived from various species of Streptomyces or Micromonosporaceae, while some of which are produced synthetically. Aminoglycosides inhibit bacterial protein synthesis by binding with the 30S ribosomal subunit and in some cases the 50S subunit, causing miscoding and thus inhibiting initiation and elongation during protein synthesis. They include;
  • Amikacin
  • Gentamicin
  • Kanamycin
  • Neomycin
  • Netilmicin
  • Paromomycin
  • Streptomycin
  • Tobramycin

Streptomycin is the first isolated aminoglycoside antibiotic derived from Streptomyces griseus. It is effective against a wide variety of aerobic gram-negative bacilli and some gram-positive bacteria, including mycobacteria. But Its use is limited because of the emergence of resistant strains.
