High-performance liquid chromatographic analysis of cefotetan epimers in human plasma and urine [PDF]
Cefotetan, a new broad-spectrum 7 alpha-methoxycephalosporin antibiotic, was assayed in plasma and urine by means of reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatography. Commercially available cefotetan exists in two epimeric forms.

SYNTHESIS AND POLYMERIZATION OF SOME IODINE-CONTAINING MONOMERS FOR BIOMEDICAL APPLICATIONS
Triiodophenol and iothalamic acid (5-acetamido-2,4,6-triiodo-N-methyl isophthalamic acid) were converted to their acrylic derivatives by esterification with methacryloyl chloride and 2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate (HEMA), respectively.
