Measurement of levels of aminoglycosides and vancomycin in serum in the presence of new beta-lactam antibiotics.

چکیده
We evaluated the effect of new beta-lactam antibiotics (azlocillin, mezlocillin, piperacillin, cefotaxime, moxalactam, and cefoperazone) on assays for aminoglycosides and vancomycin. These antibiotics produced no interference in an immunoassay for gentamicin and tobramycin. The new penicillins produced no interference in a bioassay of amikacin and vancomycin with penicillinase incorporated into the assay agar. Bioassay in the presence of the cephalosporins required predigestion with cephalosporinase. We describe a method for accurate bioassay in the presence of the available cephalosporins, with the exception of moxalactam.

Heterotropic Effect of β-lactam Antibiotics on Antioxidant Property of Haptoglobin) 2-2(-Hemoglobin Complex
Haptoglobin (Hp) is a mammalian serum glycoprotein showing a genetic polymorphism with three types, 1-1, 2-2 and 1-2. Hp appears to conserve the recycling of heme-iron by forming an essentially irreversible but non-covalent complex with hemoglobin which is released into the plasma by erythrocyte lysis. As an important consequence, Haptoglobin-Hemoglobin complex (Hp-Hb) shows considerable antiox...

Introduction: Enterobacteriaceae produce the Extended-Spectrum Beta-Lactamases which is considered as an important resistant mechanism of beta-lactam antibiotics. The resistance to beta-lactam antibiotics is the main problem in the bacterial infections therapy. The prevalence of these enzymes changes in different geographical areas and with time. The present study aims to explore the frequency ...

The CSF half-lives of lipophilic agents, such as quinolones, are similar to those in serum and peak concentrations in CSF are achieved relatively quickly. In contrast, the pharmacokinetics of hydrophilic agents (beta-lactams and vancomycin) in CSF often differ from those in serum. In particular, the half-lives of these agents in CSF tend to be extended, and the time to achieve peak concentratio...

Objective(s) Resistance to the new generation of cephalosporins which is mediated by Extended-Spectrum beta-lactamases (ESBLs) has been found among Escherichia coli isolates throughout the world. These resistance genes and their producers, the micro-organisms carrying beta-lactamases, are responsible for serious clinical and therapeutic problems among inpatients and it is necessary to pay more...
