Product Description: Amphotericin B-13C6 is 13C labeled Amphotericin B (HY-B0221). Amphotericin B is a polyene antifungal agent against a wide variety of fungal pathogens. It binds irreversibly to ergosterol, resulting in disruption of membrane integrity and ultimately cell death.
Applications: Cancer-programmed cell death
Formula: C41 13C6H73NO17
