What is Hygromycin B?

In scientific research

In terms of scientific research, hygromycin B is a commonly used drug for resistance screening. Its resistance gene expression product is a protein kinase, which is inactivated by phosphorylation of hygromycin B. Because hygromycin B is commonly used in eukaryotic and prokaryotic organisms. The false positive rate of B screening is low and the reproducibility is good. The screening of genetically modified organisms by hygromycin B has been widely used in laboratories.

Biological Application of Hygromycin B

1. Hygromycin B is an aminoglycoside antibiotic, which can kill bacteria, fungi and advanced eukaryotic cells by inhibiting protein synthesis.
2. Hygromycin B inhibits protein synthesis by interfering with translocation and promoting the mistranslation of 70S ribosomes.
3. The effective concentration selected for mammalian cells is usually between 50 μg/ml and 1 mg/ml; for plant cells, the effective concentration is 20-200 μg/ml; for bacteria, the effective concentration is 20-200 μg/ml; For fungi, the effective concentration is 200μg-1 mg/ml.
4. Specific antibiotics used in transfection
5. Hygromycin B phosphotransferase inactivates hygromycin B
6. Cells transfected with hph gene are resistant to hygromycin
7. Transfected cells express the gene stably or temporarily

What's Hygromycin B side effect?

(1) Although the toxicity of this product is low, long-term application can make pigs hearing and visual obstacles. Therefore, young sows for breeding cannot use this product. Sows and pigs cannot be used for more than 8 weeks.
(2) It is advisable that the concentration of the feed drug for poultry does not exceed 12 mg/kg.

Hygromycin B is recommended for: 6 weeks before delivery and lactation sows; piglets less than 6 months old (most susceptible to roundworms).

Hygromycin B has a good control effect on Ascaris gallisepticum, Heterospermum gallisepticum and Capillaria avian.

Usage and dosage

Mixed feeding 10-13g for pigs and 8-12g for poultry per 1,000 kg of feed.

Conclusion

As a pharmaceutical feed additive, hygromycin B can significantly promote weight gain and increase feed conversion rate, and is widely used in the field of livestock and poultry breeding. However, many people do not pay attention to the dosage and usage of hygromycin B, which leads to the residue of hygromycin B in food. Hygromycin B is harmful to the human body and should be avoided as much as possible.
