Caspofungin acetate CAS 179463-17-3 is a lipopeptide antifungal drug that is a member of a new class of antifungals termed the echinocandins. The mechanism of action of Caspofungin acetate is inhibiting the enzyme (1,3)-β-D-glucan synthase and thereby disturbing the integrity of the fungal cell wall. We used premium raw material and precision instrument to process it. We also can offer fast delivery and best service to meet customers requirements.

Usage:

Caspofungin acetate is an antifungal compound that a semi-synthetic analogue of pneumocandin B0 with improved water solubility, a significant limitation in the development of the echinocandin class as pharmaceuticals. Caspofungin acts by inhibition of the synthesis of β (1,3)-D-glucan, an essential component of the cell wall of susceptible fungi
