Ampicillin Beta-Lactamase Modified, is a unique antibiotic that is a stronger inhibitor of b-Lactamase than ampicillin, carbenicillin or methicillin. Ampicillin is modified utilizing a novel method that results in improved transformation efficiencies where higher cell density and longer incubation times traditionally result in the development of ampicillin sensitive satellite colonies. When used at a concentration of 1X, the presence of satellite colonies Identificatis reduced, even after prolonged incubation (2-4 days) and plating of competent cells at 20 fold higher density.
