Gentamicin Sulfate is an aminoglycoside antibiotic that inhibits bacterial protein synthesis by binding to the bacterial ribosome. This interference disrupts the translation process, leading to the production of faulty proteins and ultimately causing bacterial cell death.
It is frequently used as a selective agent in culture media to isolate bacteria that are sensitive to this antibiotic. Its inclusion in culture medium allows for the specific growth of bacteria lacking resistance to gentamicin.
