Purpose: The purpose of this study was to identify the effects of EMLA cream (eutectic mixture of local anesthetics, lidocaine and prilocaine) on pain during ampicillin sodium intradermal (ID) skin test, and also to assess skin reaction after the skin test. Methods: Forty-three nurse-volunteers had skin tests with 0.01ml-0.05ml ampicillin sodium antibiotics. Skin tests were done on each forearm to compare the pain level of the skin test site after application of EMLA cream with the pain level when no EMLA cream was applied. EMLA cream was applied at the ID skin test site with an occlusive dressing for one hour. Pain was evaluated using a visual analogue scale and pain sensation using the short form McGill Pain Questionnaire. The transverse diameter of the wheal and redness was read right after and at 15 minutes after the skin test. The results were compared using independent t-tests. Results: Pain score and sensation with EMLA cream treatment were significantly lower than when EMLA cream was not applied. There was no difference in skin reactions; reading of the skin test was not affected by EMLA cream. Conclusions: EMLA cream was found to be an effective local anesthetic to relieve the pain of clients having ampicillin sodium antibiotics ID skin tests.

Ampicillin and Sulbactam (2:1, w/w) are combined in formulation to provide broader antibacterial action in treatment of many infections. The development of analytical method for simultaneouly determine these two compounds was difficult because of the differences in their chemical structures and ratio in the formulation. Current published methods still have some limitations. In this study, we developed an alternative high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) assay method for simultaneously determination of ampicillin sodium and sulbactam sodium in powder for injection. Method validation of HPLC method was conducted to determine linearity, precision, accuracy, system suitability, robustness. The linearity of the calibration curves in the desired concentration range was good ($r^2$> 0.9994). RSDs of intra-day and inter-day precision obtained were less than 2.00 %. Accuracy was obtained with the recoveries in range of 98.42 % and 101.36 %. As a result of system suitability, RSD of both retention time and the peak area obtained were not more than 1.0 %. The values of plate number were more than 7000 and symmetric factors obtained were 0.8. As intermediate-precision and robustness of the developed assay, it could be expected to become valuable tools for revising the Korean Pharmacopoeia (KP XI).

Aminophylline, ceftriaxone 및 ampicillin/sulbactam (Unasyn)을 미숙아용 고영양수액제에 직접 첨가하거나 Y-site로 투여하는 경우의 안정성에 관해 조사하였다. Aminophylline 주사액 (25mg/mL) $300{\mu}l$와 ceftriaxone sodium (37.5 mg/mL) 2mL를 각각 고영양수액제 직접 첨가하였다. 또한 Y-site에서의 안정성 조사를 위해 ceftriaxone sodium (37.5 mg/mL)을 고영양수액제에 각각 1:1 및 1:2 부피비가 되도록 혼합하였고 Unasyn (25mg/mL)은 고영양수액제와 1:1의 부피비로 혼합하였다. 이상과 같이 조제한 혼합액을 $25^{\circ}C$와 $4^{\circ}C$에 보관하여 aminophylline은 48시간 동안 그리고 항생제들은 24시간 동안의 경시변화를 HPLC를 이용하여 분석하였다. Aminophylline은 위 보존조건에서 48시간동안 안정하였다(변화율 <$10{\%}$). Ceftriaxone sodium을 고영양수액제에 직접 첨가한 경우 ceftriaxone의 잔존률은 $25^{\circ}C$에서 4시간째에 $90.5{\pm}1.8{\%}$이었고 $4^{\circ}C$에는 $95.1{\pm}1.4{\%}$로 측정되었다. Y-site에서의 안정성과 관련하여 ceftriaxone sodium을 고영양수액제와 1:1로 혼합한 경우 양 보존조건에서 ceftriaxone은 24시간 동안 안정하였으나 1:2로 혼합한 경우에는 $4^{\circ}C$ 보관 시에만 안정하였고 $25^{\circ}C$에서는 24시간째에 약 $14{\%}$ 정도 분해되는 것으로 나타났다. 한편, Unasyn의 경우 ampicillin은 24시간째에 $4^{\circ}C$ 보관 시에만 안정하였고 $25^{\circ}C$에서는 24시간째에 약 $14{\%}$정도 분해되는 것으로 나타났다. 한편, Unasyn의 경우 ampicillin은 24시간째에 $4^{\circ}C$에서는 안정하였으나 $25^{\circ}C$에서는 $30{\%}$까지 감소되는 것으로 분석되었고 sulbactam은 24시간째에 온도와 관계없이 안정한 것으로 나타났다. Ceftriaxone sodium을 TPN과 Y-site 혼합 후 1-2시간 이내에 침천이 형성되었고 Unasyn의 경우에는 12시간째에 침천이 형성되었다. 혼합액의 pH나 색상은 연구기간 동안 일정하였다. 이러한 연구결과에 기초할 때, aminophylline은 고영양수액제와 혼합가능하고 ceftriaxone과 Unasyn은 고양양수액제와 혼합시 최소 1시간 동안은 안정한 것으로 평가되었다.

Alginate microspheres were prepared by the emulsification process as a drug delivery system of ampicillin sodium (AMP-Na). The preparation parameters such as the concentration of calcium chloride, the stirring time and the amount of AMP-NA were investigated. The alginate microspheres containing hydroxypropylmethylcellulose (HPMC) were found to be generally spherical, discrete and had smoother surfaces when compared to without HPMC. However, there was no significant difference in the release profile of AMP-NA from alginate microspheres prepared with or without HPMC. The concentration of calcium chloride solution and the stirring time in the preparation of alginate microspheres influenced the aggregation of alginate microspheres. The amount of AMP-NA in alginate microspheres influenced the surface morphology and the practical drug content in microspheres.

Poly(l-lactic acid)(PLLA) microspheres loaded with ampicillin sodium (AMP-Na_, .betha.-lactam antibiotic, were prepared by a w/o/w multiple emulsion-solvent evaporation method. The amounts of each component in three phases (inner water phase, organic phase, and outer water phase) wre carefully examined in the preparation of PLLA microspheres. The stirring rate, another preparation parameter, was also investigated for study on the effect of mechanical stress on the drug loading and morphology of PLLA microspheres. Most of the preparation parameters had a great influence on the drug loading, surface morphology and size distribution of PLLA microspheres. PLLA microspheres with 15.89 w/w% drug loading were subjected to the in vitro release experimet. The release of ampicillin sodium was constant at a rate of 1.68 $mug/ml/day$ per 1 mg of microspheres for 18 days initial burst effect.

Ampicillin sodium (AMP-Na) was loaded Into fibrin glue (FG) in two different ways and was tried to achieve sustained release from FG. One was loading of AMP-Na in a simple mixing and the other was loading of bovine serum albumin (BSA) microspheres which contained ANP-Na. In case of simple mixing, the release control of AWP-Na from FG was tried by variation of FBNG concentration, but failed. However, the loading of BSA mlcrosphere containing ANP-Na into FG showed sustained re- lease of AMP-Na, especially when microsphere was crosslinked with glutaraldehyde (tO.9 : 33hr). The maximum adhesive strength of FG showed at concentration of FBWG and thrombin, 5.0 % and 25-50 NIHU/ml, respectively. The concentration of Factor Xlll (0-500 U/1g of FBNG) did not affect the adhesive strength of FG. The optimal incubation time was 60 min. The AMP-Na or BSA microsphere which was loaded into FG had no significant effect on the adhesive strength of FG.

To estimate the effect of some injectable antibiotics (ampicillin sodium, cefazolin sodium, cephaloridine, cefuroxime sodium and chloramphenicol sodium succinate) on pyrogen tests, the Limulus amebocyte lysate (LAL) test and an ultrafiltration technique were used. The rabbit pyrogen test was also used in the case of cafazolin sodium. At high antibiotic concentrations, these samples which were artificially contaminated with endotoxin inhibited the gelation reaction of LAL. But the gelation reaction occurred when most of the antibiotic was removed by ultrafiltration. Likewise, cefazolin sodium interfered not only with the LAL test but also with the rabbit pyrogen test. From these results it can be said that special modification to eliminate interference should be taken into consideration for valid method of pyrogen tests in the parenteral products containing these antibiotics.

Macroorganisms capable of utilizing sodium dodecylbenzenesulfonate(SDBS, soft type) as a sole carbon source were isolated from nature by using SDBS agar plate technique. Iwolated bacteria were examined primarily for biodegradation ability of SDBS, and followed by testing for resistance to several kinds of metal compounds and antibiotics. Among them(152 strains), one strain showed a excellent SDBS-degrading ability with a resistance to amipicillin and rifampicin was selected. This bacterium was identified as Klebsiella sp. and harbored two plasmids of about 4 and 5 kilobases. SDBS-degrading ability was lost when the plasmids were cured by mitomycin C. It was revealed that the degradation of SDBS was controlled by the plasmid DNA encoding genes. The two plasmids were stably maintained in Escherichia coli C600.

Ceftizoxime sodium is a new synthetic ${\beta}$-lactam antibiotic combining potent antibacterial activity with high stability to a wide range of bacterial ${\beta}$-lactamase. This experiment was achieved to evaluate the antibacterial activities of ceftizoxime sodium againist Gram negative enteric bacteria isolated from in outpatient visiting Yeungnam university hospital and to study the emergence of drug induced bacterial varients which resist to ceftizoxime in vitro. The antibacterial activity of the ceftizoxime was compared with that of antibiotics and its effect on population of normal intestinal flora in mice was observed. The results are summarized as follows : 1. Highly effective antibacterial activity of ceftizoxime against Gram negative enteric bacilli was demonstrated and this antibacterial activity was superior to that of ampicillin. 2. Several test strains shows multiple antibiotic resistence. Among 15 strains of Escherichia coli, 1 strain was resistent to ampicillin, cefadroxyl, gentamicin, tetracycline, and 2 strains were resistent to ampicillin, cefadroxyl, tetracycline, five strains of Escherichia coli and Enterobacter cloacae was resistent to amplicillin, tetracycline and Shigella dysenteria was resistent to ampicillin, gentamicin, tetracycline. 3. The frequency of in vitro emergence of resistent varients among ceftizoxime sensitive bacteria in the presence of increasing concentrations of the compound was found to be low. 4. Plasmid was isolated in 6 of 9 strains (6 strains of Escherichia coli, Shigella dysenteriae, Enterobacter cloaceae and Salmonella typhi) That showed different antibiotic resistance. They were 5 strains of Escherichia coli and 1 strain of Shigella dysenteriae. However, plasmid could not be considered as a hallmark for antibiotic resistance by this. Further studies with curing experiment are to be accomplished for this purpose. 5. Changes in the bacterial count of normal intestinal flora following 25mg/kg/day administration of ceftizoxime over S consecutive days were not significant. In conclusion, ceftizoxime appeared to be a drug of choice in the treatment of Gram negative enteric bacilli infection.
