General description

Chemical structure: ß-lactam

Application

Cefdinir was used to study bacterial infections caused by Staphylococcus aureus and Neisseria gonorrhoeae and the horizontal transfer of the ftsI gene in H. influenzae.
An advanced-generation, cephalosporin antibiotic. Used for its excellent and well balanced antibacterial activities against gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Cefdinir is an advanced generation amino-2-thiazolyl cephalosporin effective against Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria. It acts by disrupting the synthesis of the peptidoglycan layer of bacterial cell walls. It is also known to inhibit human neutrophil myeloperoxidases.

Cefdinir, a new oral 2-amino-5-thiazolyl cephalosporin, inhibited the luminol-amplified chemiluminescence (LACL) response of human neutrophils stimulated by PMA but not opsonized zymosan, in a concentration-dependent but not time-dependent manner. The LACL response to opsonized zymosan in cytochalasin B-treated neutrophils was
