Gentamicin sulfate is an aminoglycoside antibiotic composed of several different gentamicin components. The main components of gentamicin include members of the gentamicin C complex: gentamicin C1, gentamicin C1a, and gentamicin C2 which compose approximately 80% of gentamicin and demonstrate the highest antibacterial activity. Gentamicin A, B, X, and a few others make up the remaining 20% of gentamicin and have lower antibiotic activity than the gentamicin C complex. Gentamicin is slightly soluble in aqueous solution (~12.6 mg/mL).
