In vitro and in vivo microbiological evaluation of Cephapirin, a new antibiotic.

Abstract:

:The microbiological properties of cephapirin, a new semisynthetis cephalosporin, have been studied. This antibiotic, if compared with ampicillin, shows a greater activity against gram positive bacteria, a lack of sensitivity to staphlococcal beta-lactamase, and a lower sensitivity to those produced by gram-negative bacteria. Useful therapeutic of cephapirin levels can be detected in human serum 6 h after administration of 500 and 1,000 mg parenterally.

  • Carboplatin Dosing Accuracy by Estimation of Glomerular Filtration versus Creatinuria in Cancer Patients.

    abstract:BACKGROUND:The glomerular filtration rate (GFR) is essential for calculating the dose and the monitoring of carboplatin. Although GFR measurement (mGFR) by external markers is ideal, in most cases these are not employed; the most used method is GFR estimation (eGFR) by formulae, hence the need to identify the formula w...
