Antifungal Activity of Mammalian Serum Amyloid A1 against Candida albicans.

abstract：:Selection of resistance to cefamandole has been observed, and the drug has failed to protect animals lethally infected with certain Enterobacteriaceae that appeared to be highly susceptible in vitro. Using spectrophotometric assays, some of these organisms were found to produce beta-lactamases highly active against ce...
