The Carbenicillin (disodium) EZ Pak™ is the fastest and easiest way to make a set amount of sterile carbenicillin (disodium) solution. The kit includes pre-weighed carbenicillin (disodium) powder, a sterile filter, and a sterile container for the filtered solution. No need to calculate, simply add the stated amount of deionized H2O, filter, and pour into the labeled bottle for easy usage. The EZ Pak™ includes high quality GoldBio carbenicillin (disodium) and the sterile solution is ready for tissue culture, bacterial media, or any number of uses.

Carbenicillin is a member of the penicillin β-lactam antibiotics. However, unlike most β-lactams, carbenicillin disodium is limited to primarily gram-negative bacteria including Pseudomonas aeruginosa and common enteric species. It can be used in selection protocols and is often preferred over ampicillin due to its increased stability. This allows for less contamination of unwanted bacterial colonies. In addition, carbenicillin has been used to regulate bacterial growth in plants, yielding low regeneration frequencies. It can be used in genetic transformation applications to select for AmpR transformed cells.

Carboplatin is an alkylating agent that is used as a chelating agent as well as a chemotherapeutic compound for its antineoplastic effects. While the exact mechanism of antineoplastic activity is still not well understood, it is believed to behave similarly to cisplatin which binds DNA and prevents its transcription and replication.

Carboplatin is also believed to generate free radicals from the attached platinum atom. Despite the uncertainty with carboplatin’s mechanism, it has shown to be highly effective antineoplastic compound when paired with paclitaxel (GoldBio Catalog # P-925) and bevacizumab.

Carfilzomib is a second generation proteasome inhibitor that has been used in oncology research.Being a derivative of epoxomicin, carfilzomib has a tetrapeptide epoxyketone structure.

The anti-cancer activity of carfilzomib on proteasomes is attributed to irreversibly binding to a 20S subunit on proteasomes. Affinity of carfilzomib for the subunit has been shown to be fairly significant, allowing carfilzomib to be effective at targeting multiple myeloma and lymphoma.

Proteasomes degrade excess or damaged proteins in both the nucleus and cytosol by cleaving hydrophobic residue peptide bonds. When proteasomes are inhibited by carfilzomib, polyubiquinated proteins accumulate. Polyubiquinated proteins will upregulate p21 synthesis, which activates cell cycle arrest and eventually apoptosis.

Carfilzomib has also been shown to have poor solubility in aqueous solutions, but greater solubility in organic solvents such as DMSO. Aqueous solubility can be enhanced by diluting carfilzomib-organic solvent solution in aqueous buffers. Using aqueous carfilzomib in biological settings should be done in dilute concentrations to limit organic solvent presence. Because carfilzomib organic-aqueous solutions only have a shelf life of approximately 24 hours, it is recommended to make small portions for immediate use.

Caspofungin acetate is an echinocandin antifungal targeting the fungal cell membrane and inhibiting β(1,3)-D-Glucan synthase, a component necessary for cell wall synthesis. Caspofungin acetate is useful against Aspergillus and Candida species.

CCL11 is a chemokine containing four conserved cysteine residues, of which the first two are adjacent. It is expressed in dermal fibroblasts. Expression of CCL11 is induced by IL1A and TNFA and inhibited by IFNG. It is strongly and selectively chemotactic for eosinophils and induces a calcium flux response in eosinophils; thus it is involved in a variety of eosinophilic inflammatory diseases. CCL11 is a ligand for CCR1, CCR2, CCR3, CCR5, and ACKR2 (D6).

Murine CCL11 is a chemokine containing four conserved cysteine residues, of which the first two are adjacent. It is expressed in fibroblasts, epithelial cells, smooth muscle cells, and dendritic cells. Expression of CCL11 is upregulated by several proinflammatory cytokines, including IL1A and TNFA, and is inhibited by IFNG. It is strongly and selectively chemotactic for eosinophils and induces a calcium flux response in eosinophils. CCL11 is involved in a variety of eosinophilic inflammatory diseases. CCL11 is a ligand primarily for CCR3, but also CCR1, CCR2, CCR5, and ACKR2 (D6).

Rat CCL11 is a chemokine containing four conserved cysteine residues, of which the first two are adjacent. It is expressed in fibroblasts, epithelial cells, smooth muscle cells, and dendritic cells. Expression of CCL11 is upregulated by several proinflammatory cytokines, including IL1A and TNFA, and is inhibited by IFNG. CCL11 is strongly and selectively chemotactic and activating for eosinophils and is involved in a variety of eosinophilic inflammatory diseases. It also plays a role in angiogenesis and tumor growth. CCL11 is a ligand primarily for CCR3, but also CCR1, CCR2, CCR5, and ACKR2 (D6).

Murine CCL12 is a chemokine containing four conserved cysteine residues, of which the first two are adjacent. It is expressed by macrophages and in lymph nodes and thymus tissue. Expression of CCL12 is upregulated after hypoxia and during bacterial infection and allergic inflammation. It is chemotactic for peripheral blood monocytes and fibrocytes and may play a critical role in the early stages of inflammation, as well as in joint and growth plate development. CCL12 is a ligand for CCR2.
