The binding of two cephalosporins, cephalothin and cefazoline to human serum albumin(HSA) was studied by difference spectrophotometry using a spectrophotometric probe, 2-(4'-hydroxybenzeneazo) benzoic acid. The probe is strong visible absorbing material which interacts with serum albumin to give characteristic spectrophotometric peaks and provides the basis for a convenient assay to measure free and bound amounts in the presence of serum albumin and competitive drugs. The results obtained showed that the probe and cephalosporin compete for the same binding site on human serum albumin; thus the probe can be used to gauge the displacement of cephalosporins from human serum albumin. The data were interpreted on the basis of theory of multiple equilibria. The number of binding sites of human serum albumin for 2-(4'-hydroxybenzeneazo) benzoic acid(HBAB), cephalothin and cefazoline appears to be 4. By using this technique the binding constants were found as follows: HSA-HBAB, $7.89{\times}10^{4}M^{-1}$; HSA-cephalothin, $1.09{\times}10^{3}M^{-1}$ ; HSA-cefazoline, $1.21{\times}10^{3}M^{-1}$.

To investigate the protein binding characteristics of cephalothin, the effects of ionic strength, pH and temperature on the binding of cephalothin to bovine serum albumin (BSA) were studied by UV difference spectrophotometric method. With increasing ionic strength at constant PH and temperature, association constant decreased, but the number of binding sites sites was about 2 constantly. It may be deduced that the binding process is not only due to electrostatic forces. And the increased association constant at high ionic strength is explained by conformational changes of BSA from complex to subunits. The pH effect on the affinity of interaction indicated that the binding affinity of drug is higher in the neutral region than in the alkaline region. And, at high pH value, the number of binding sites decreased from 2 to 1 because of the conformational changes of BSA in alkaline region. The decrease in binding affinity of BSA to drug with increasing temperature was characteristic of an exothermic reaction. And the negative sign of ${\Delta}G^{\circ}$ meant that the binding process occurs spontaneously under the experimental conditions. In cephalothin-BSA complex formation, since the net enthalpy change value and entropy change value are positive, it is assumed that hydrophobic bindings are predominant in this binding process.

Binding of six cephalosporins (cefotaxime, cefuroxime, cefazoline, cephalothin, cephaloridine, cephacetrile) to bovine serum albumin was studied. Fluorescence probe technique and difference spectrophotometry were employed to evaluate the nature and degree of association of cephalosporin albumin complex. 1-Anilinonaphthalene-8-sulfonate (ANS) was used as the fluorescence probe. 2-(4'-hydroxybenzeneazo) benzoic acid(HBAB) was employed as the UV spectrophotometric probe. Compentitive bindings between cephalosporins and probes were observed. The number of binding sites of bovine serum albumin for each cephalcsporin is 2. Among six cephaloporins, cefotaxime has the highest binding constant followed by cafazoline, cefuroxime, cephalothin, cephaloridine and cephacetrile.

A large number of streptococci that do not fit readily into any of the established classification schemes have been relegated to a large heterogeneous group called the Streptococcus viridans, which are members of the normal flora of the mucous membranes of the body, including the oral cavity, the nasopharynx, and genitourinary tract. This group includes S. mitis, S. oralis, S. sanguis, S. salivarius, S. milleri, etc. Surveying on the literature, it has been reported that infective endocarditis, meningitis, rhabdomyolysis, cholangitis, appendicitis caused by Streptococcus viridans, which were the most important pathogen in children with malignant hematologic disease. Various antibiotics has been chosen for treatment or prophylaxis for these infections, but were generally lower antimicrobial susceptibilities because of an abuse of antibiotics and advent of resistant group. Therefore, surveillant culture must be performed to evaluate personal antimicrobial susceptibilities of intraoral microbes for proper antimicrobial choice for dental procedures. This study examined sampling from subgingival plaque of 60 chidren's microbes. The cultured bacterial isolates, Streptococcus viridans were examined 10 antimicrobial drugs with the Kirby-Bauer agar disk diffusion method. The used drugs were Penicillin, Ampicillin, Oxacillin, Cephalothin, Imipenem, Gentamicin, Erythromycin, Vancomycin, Ciprofloxacin, Clindamycin. The results were as follows : 1. Sampling Streptococcus viridans were S. mitis(65%), S. oralis(22%), S. sanguis(5%), S. intermedius(3%), S. salivarius(2%), S acidominimus(2%), Unidentified streptococcus(2%). 2. The antimicrobial susceptibility of total Streptococcus viridans : Oxacillin< Erythromycin< Pencillin=Ciprofloxacin< Cephalothin< Ampicillin< Clindamycin< Gentamicin< Imipenem=Vancomycin. 3. The antimicrobial susceptibility of S. mitis : Oxacillin=Erythromycin< Ciprofloxacin< Cephalothin< Penicillin=Ampicillin< Gentamicin< Clidamycin< Imipenem=Vancomycin. 4. The antimicrobial susceptibility of S. oralis : Oxacillin< Erythromycin< Penicillin=Ciprofloxacin=Clindamycin< Cephalothin=Gentamicin< Ampicillin< Imipenem=Vancomycin. 5. There was no significant difference in the antimicrobial susceptibility among each Streptococcus viridans group.

The present study was conducted to investigate the incidence of pneumonic lesions with special regard to enzootic pneumonia and the microbiology of pneumoic lungs from 544 slaughter pigs during the period from October 1995 to September 1996. The incidence of enzootic pneumonic lesion was 76.3% (41s/s44) and pleurisy was detected from 7.9% of slaughter pigs. Seasonal prevalence of pneumonic lesions in slaughter pigs were in order of prevalence of 82.9% in spring, 76.8% in winter, 74.8% in autumn and 69.0% in summer, respectively. Pasteurella multocida, Streptococcus sp, Str suis, Corynebacterium sp, Actinobacillus pleuropneumoniae, Hemophilus parasuis, and Klebsiella pneumoniae were detected in order of prevalence from 16.9%, 15.9%, 7.5%, 6.0%, 1.4%, 1.0% and 0.5% of 415 pneumonic lungs, respectively. P multocida were susceptible to oxytetracycline, polymyxin-B, streptomycin, and vancomycin, while the majority of them were resistant to amoxicillin, ampicillin, cephalothin, kanamycin, and penicillin-G. Str suis were susceptible to amoxicillin, ampicillin, cephalothin, penicillin-G, although the majority of them were resistant to erythromycin, oxytetracycline, streptomycin, vancomycin. A pleuropneumoniae were susceptible to ampicillin, and cephalothin, but the majority of them were resistant to oxytetracycline.

Binding of sic cephalosporins (cefotaxime, cefuroxime, cafazoline, cephalothin, cephaloridine, cephacetrile) to human serum albumin was studied. Fluorescence probe technique and difference spectrophotometry were employed to evaluate the nature and degree of association of cephalosporin-albumin complex. 1-anilinonaphthalene-8-surfonate was used as the fluorescence probe, and 2-(4'-hydroxybenzeneazo)benzoic acid as the UV spectrophotometric probe. Competitive bindings between cephalosporins and probe were observed. For the binding of cephalosporins to human serum albumin, three binding sites were identified by fluorescence probe technique but four binding constants of cephalosporins to human serum albumin measured by fluorescence probe technique are higher than those meausred by UV spectrophotometry.

Investigation of polymorphism has become a requirement in the pharmaceutical industry because the physical properties and bioavailabilities of crystalline drugs depend on their polymorphic form. Five polymorphic modifications and one pseudopolymorphic modification of ecphalothin sodium were prepared by recrystallization, and characterized by UV spectrophotometer, DSC, TGA and X-ray crystallography. The solubilities of all modifications were examined by the disslution test. Form 2 and 1 showed higher solubilities than any other crystal forms. The modifications were also investigated for their stability after storage of 2 months at 100%, 76%, 52% and 0% humidity.
