Bacitracin zinc is a complex of zinc and bacitracin. It is a white or off-white powder with its characteristic odor and bitter taste.
It is a mixture of related cyclic peptides produced by organisms of the licheniformis group of Bacillus subtilis var Tracy.
These peptides disrupt gram-positive bacteria by interfering with the cell wall and peptidoglycan synthesis.
It is one of our USFDA-Approved pharmaceutical ingredients along with bacitracin and polymyxin b sulfate.
It is an effective narrow-spectrum antibiotic peptide with a similar antibacterial spectrum to penicillin, mainly for Gram-positive cocci and bacilli.
Zinc bacitracin also exerts a certain inhibitory effect on several Gram-negative bacteria, spirochetes, and actinomycetes with attributes of high efficiency, low toxicity, and low residue.
First thing first, we must mention it upfront, there are two types of powders:
1. high-potency type Pharm-Grade (Potency No Less Than 65IU/MG);
2. Feed-Grade or Industrial-Grade (Potency Less than 40IU/MG).
Here we mainly supply pharm-grade type used to manufacturing medicines for humans.
