Product Description

Mynox® Gold is a further development of the classic Mynox®. Mynox® Gold is a combination of a standard antibiotic ciprofloxacin with the biological Mynox® reagent surfactin. One application includes an initial treatment that eliminates most mycoplasmas without affecting the cells. The follow-up treatments destroy the remaining mycoplasmas. The mode of action of Mynox® Gold is based on a biophysical mechanism to integrate into the membrane of mycoplasmas and thereby impair their integrity.

Benefits

  • Functionality test

    Technical Note on the functional testing of Mynox® Gold. Removal of mycoplasma from a Vero cell line contaminated with mycoplasma.

  • Low resistance risk

    The combination of the standard antibiotic ciprofloxacin and the Mynox® reagent surfactin virtually eliminates the possibility of resistance to Mynox® Gold when eliminating mycoplasmas.

  • Highly effective

    The eradication efficiency is close to 100 %.

  • Mycoplasma removal from virus stocks

    Protocol for the pre-treatment of virus stocks available as a Technical Note.

Recommended Use

Mynox® Gold is intended for research use only and not for clinical applications. Not applicable for the direct treatment of cells that serve as host cells for Chlamydia or other bacterial host cells. The level of antibiotics in the product may affect the integrity of the parasites.
