[Mezlocillin concentrations in human lung tissue]. 1982

U Kroening, and S Liebig, and M Wundschock

The antibiotic concentrations were determined in 28 serum samples, 24 samples of lung parenchyma and 21 samples of the skeletal muscle from 28 patients who had undergone pneumonectomy. 5 g mezlocillin had been given i. v. as a bolus injection 30 to 150 minutes before sampling. The concentrations in the lung tissue were higher than the MICs for most bacteria for two hours. If a strain is less sensitive, a dose of more than 5 g is recommended. The concentrations in muscle tissue were also effective antibacterially.

D010406 Penicillins A group of antibiotics that contain 6-aminopenicillanic acid with a side chain attached to the 6-amino group. The penicillin nucleus is the chief structural requirement for biological activity. The side-chain structure determines many of the antibacterial and pharmacological characteristics.
