| Description | Kanamycin, also known as KAN, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as 4,6-disubstituted 2-deoxystreptamines. These are 2-deoxystreptamine aminoglycosides that are glycosidically linked to a pyranose of furanose unit at the C4- and C6-positions. Kanamycin is a drug which is used for treatment of infections where one or more of the following are the known or suspected pathogens: e. coli, proteus species (both indole-positive and indole-negative), e. aerogenes, k. pneumoniae, s. marcescens, and acinetobacter species. In humans, kanamycin is involved in the kanamycin action pathway. Kanamycin is a primary metabolite. Primary metabolites are metabolically or physiologically essential metabolites. They are directly involved in an organism’s growth, development or reproduction. Based on a literature review a small amount of articles have been published on Kanamycin. |
