Description

Cefotaxime ReadyMade™ Solution is provided as a filter-sterilized solution of Cefotaxime Sodium in water.

  • CAS Number: 64485-93-4
  • Molecular Formula: C16H16N5NaO7S2
  • Molecular Weight: 447.45 g/mo
  • Storage Conditions: -20°C
  • Form: Liquid
  • Source: Semi-synthetic (Acremonium sp.)
  • Spectrum: Cefotaxime Sodium has broad-spectrum activity against a wide variety of Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria. However, unlike many cephalosporin antibiotics, Cefotaxime Sodium is not effective against Pseudomonas aeruginosa
  • Mechanism of Action: Like β-lactams, cephalosporins interfere with PBP (penicillin binding protein) activity involved in the final phase of peptidoglycan synthesis. PBPs are enzymes which catalyze a pentaglycine crosslink between alanine and lysine residues providing additional strength to the cell wall. Without a pentaglycine crosslink, the integrity of the cell wall is severely compromised and ultimately leads to cell lysis and death. Resistance to cephalosporins is commonly due to cells containing plasmid encoded β-lactamases. Cefotaxime Sodium however, is largely resistant to β-lactamases
