Abstract Intravenous β‐lactam antibiotics remain a cornerstone in the management of bacterial infections due to their broad spectrum of activity and excellent tolerability. β‐lactams are well established to display time‐dependent bactericidal activity, where reductions in bacterial burden are directly associated with the time that free drug ...

Environmental hotspots for antibiotic resistance genes
Antibiotic contamination or waste enters a variety of different environmental settings. The accumulation of antibiotics can cause a selective pressure on bacteria that encode resistance genes for their survival, generating a hotspot for resistance genes.

In Vitro Activity of Thienamycin [PDF]
The in vitro activity of thienamycin was tested against 135 aerobic and anaerobic bacteria. The compound was highly active against resistant gram-negative bacilli and penicillin-resistant Straphylococcus aureus . The antianaerobic spectrum of the drug seemed to be comparable to that of metronidazole.

Synthese einer chiralen Thienamycin-Vorstufe / Synthesis of a Chiral Thienamycine Intermediate [PDF]
Abstract A key intermediate of Kametani’s total synthesis of racemic thienamycine has now been prepared in chiral form via a 1.3-dipolar cycloadduct of a chiral nitrone and benzyl crotonate.

N-formimidoyl thienamycin (MK0787): in vitro study [PDF]
N-Formimidoyl thienamycin (MK0787) was compared in vitro with three other beta-lactam and two aminoglycoside antibiotics. It was second in activity only to cefotaxime against members of the Enterobacteriaceae and to amikacin against Pseudomonas species. It was the most active antibiotic against Staphylococcus aureus.
