Enzymatic inactivation of residual gentamicin after membrane filtration.

چکیده
RESIDUAL GENTAMICIN ON A MILLIPORE MEMBRANE WAS INACTIVATED BY MODIFICATION WITH TWO DIFFERENT ENZYMES: gentamicin adenylyltransferase and 3-N-acetyltransferase. Both modifications allowed the growth of susceptible strains of Escherichia coli and Bacillus subtilis.

Enzymatic method for inactivation of aminoglycosides during measurement of postantibiotic effect.
To determine the postantibiotic effect of aminoglycosides, two methods are currently being used to remove the test drug: repeated washing and dilution. An enzymatic inactivation method of removing gentamicin and tobramycin was developed and compared with the dilution method. This enzymatic method provides a rapid and simple alternative method of removing aminoglycosides which results in reliabl...
متن کاملFormation of a toxic metabolite from gentamicin by a hepatic cytosolic fraction.
We have demonstrated recently that incubation of the aminoglycoside gentamicin with an hepatic post-mitochondrial fraction produces a compound toxic to sensory cells from the inner ear in short-term culture; in contrast, the parent aminoglycoside was non-toxic in vitro (Huang MY and Schacht J, Biochem Pharmacol 40: R11-R14, 1990). In the present study, we investigated the subcellular distributi...
متن کاملOzone inactivation of cell-associated viruses.
The inactivation of HEp-2 cell-associated poliovirus (Sabin 1) and coxsackievirus A9 was investigated in three experimental systems, using ozone as a disinfectant. The cell-associated viral samples were adjusted to a turbidity of 5 nephelometric turbidity units. The cell-associated poliovirus and coxsackievirus samples demonstrated survival in a continuous-flow ozonation system at applied ozone...
متن کاملFouling Mechanism Study of Nanoporous Membrane by Ultrafitration of Whey Proteins
One of the barriers during whey filtration using UF membrane is the fouling phenomenon of the membrane, which is caused by whey proteins. In this work, the UF membranes were prepared using polysufone (PSf), dimethyl formamide (DMF), 1 wt.% poly vinyl pyrrolidone (PVP) and different concentrations of LiCl via phase inversion induced by immersion precipitation. The prepared membranes were charact...
متن کاملInactivation of gentamicin by penicillins in patients with renal failure.
Kinetics of gentamicin inactivation by carbenicillin and ticarcillin were studied in vitro and in 17 patients with renal failure. In vitro, the half-life of carbenicillin in human serum at 37 C is longer (19.2 +/- 0.7 h) than ticarcillin (7.2 +/- 0.6 h). Thus, incubation of gentamicin with equal concentrations of ticarcillin or carbenicillin results in greater inactivation of aminoglycoside act...
