Apollo Scientific™ Micafungin (Sodium) is a high-purity echinocandin-class antifungal compound used extensively in pharmaceutical research, fungal cell wall biosynthesis studies, and antifungal resistance investigations. Micafungin selectively inhibits β-(1,3)-D-glucan synthase, an essential enzyme for fungal cell wall integrity, offering a mechanism of action distinct from azole antifungals.
Supplied in the sodium salt form, micafungin provides enhanced aqueous solubility and formulation consistency, making it particularly suitable for in vitro assays, pharmacological studies, and preclinical research workflows.
