Ceftiolene is a semisynthetic, broad-spectrum, third-generation cephalosporin with antibacterial activity. Ceftiolene binds to and inactivates penicillin-binding proteins (PBPs) located on the inner membrane of the bacterial cell wall. PBPs are enzymes involved in the terminal stages of assembling the bacterial cell wall and in Read More …

Cefteram is a semisynthetic, broad-spectrum, third-generation cephalosporin with antibacterial activity. Cefteram binds to and inactivates penicillin-binding proteins (PBPs) located on the inner membrane of the bacterial cell wall. PBPs are enzymes involved in the terminal stages of assembling the bacterial cell wall and in Read More …

Cefsulodin Sodium is the sodium salt form of cefsulodin, a semi-synthetic, third-generation cephalosporin antibiotic with a narrow spectrum of activity. Cefsulodin sodium is a pyridinium-substituted semisynthetic, broad-spectrum antibacterial used especially for Pseudomonas infections in debilitated patients. Cefsulodin has activity against Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Staphylococcus aureus Read More …

Cefpimizole is a semisynthetic, broad-spectrum, third-generation cephalosporin with antibacterial activity. Cefpimizole binds to and inactivates penicillin-binding proteins (PBPs) located on the inner membrane of the bacterial cell wall. PBPs are enzymes involved in the terminal stages of assembling the bacterial cell wall and in Read More …

Cefodizime is a third-generation, aminothiazolyl cephalosporin for parenteral use. Cefodizime has broad-spectrum activity and is stable to most beta-lactamases. Clinically, it has been shown to be effective against upper and lower respiratory tract infections, urinary tract infections, and gonorrhea. Cefodizime is a bactericidal Read More …

Cefmenoxime is a third-generation, semi-synthetic, beta-lactam cephalosporin antibiotic with antibacterial activity. Cefmenoxime binds to penicillin-binding proteins (PBPs), transpeptidases that are responsible for crosslinking of peptidoglycan. By preventing crosslinking of peptidoglycan, cell wall integrity is lost and cell wall synthesis is halted. Cefmenoxime is a cephalosporin antibiotic Read More …

Ceftizoxime is a semisynthetic, broad-spectrum, beta-lactamase-resistant, third-generation cephalosporin with antibacterial activity & safe and effective in aged patients and in patients with hematologic disorders . Ceftizoxime binds to and inactivates penicillin-binding proteins (PBPs) located on the inner membrane of the bacterial cell wall. PBPs are Read More …

Cefdaloxime Antibiotic is a beta-lactam, third-generation broad-spectrum semisynthetic,  bactericidal activity with antibacterial cephaloridine and used especially for Pseudomonas and other gram-negative infections in debilitated patients. Cefdaloxime binds to and inactivates penicillin-binding proteins (PBP) located on the inner membrane of the bacterial cell wall. PBPs Read More …

Cefcapene is a is a beta-lactam, third-generation broad-spectrum semisynthetic,  bactericidal activity with antibacterial cephalosporin with antibacterial activity. Cefcapene binds to and inactivates penicillin-binding proteins (PBPs) located on the inner membrane of the bacterial cell wall. PBPs are enzymes involved in the terminal stages of assembling Read More …

Cefmetazole is a second-generation, semi-synthetic, beta-lactam cephalosporin antibiotic with antibacterial activity. Cefmetazole binds to penicillin-binding proteins (PBPs), transpeptidases that are responsible for crosslinking of peptidoglycan. By preventing crosslinking of peptidoglycan, cell wall integrity is lost and cell wall synthesis is halted. Cefmetazole is a semisynthetic cephamycin Read More …
