Chloramphenicol is an antibiotic, isolated from strains of Streptomyces venezuelae. It blocks bacterial protein synthesis by inhibiting the peptidyl transferase activity of the 50S ribosomal subunit. The antibiotic has a broad application range against gram positive and gram negative bacteria.
Chloramphenicol is used for bacterial selection and plasmid amplification in molecular biology applications and as a selection agent for transformed cells containing chloramphenicol reistance genes.
A stock solution opf 50 mg/ml in ethanol yield a clear, very faint yellow solution. For selection of chloramphenicol-resistant Escherichia coli a concentration of 30 - 50 µg/ml are typically used.
