Objectives: This study aims to examine the concentration, diversity, and antibiotic characteristics of penicillin G resistant enterobacteria present in pharmaceutical effluent. Methods: Water sampling was performed from a pharmaceutical company in Gyeonggi-do Province, Korea in March 2015. Water samples were plated in triplicate on tryptic soy agar plates with 32 mg/L of penicillin G. Penicillin G resistant enterobacteria were selected from the effluent and were subjected to 16S rRNA analysis for penicillin G resistant species determination. Identified resistant strains were tested for resistance to various antibiotics. Results: Penicillin G resistant enterobacteria were present at 6.2% as to culturable heterotrophic bacteria. Identified penicillin G resistant enterobacteria exhibited resistance to more than 10 of the antibiotics studied. These resistant bacteria are gram negative and are closely related to pathogenic species. Conclusion: Multi-antibiotic resistant bacteria in the effluent suggest a need for disinfection and advanced oxidation processes for pharmaceutical effluents.

The hydrolysis of penicillin G, carbenicillin and ampicillin in pure water at room temperature was studied by high pressure liquid chromatography electrospray ionization mass spectrometry. Hydrolysis of ampicillin did not occur under these conditions; however, penicillin G and carbenicillin were completely hydrolyzed after seven days. A short interpretation of this difference is proposed. The mass spectrometric behaviour, namely ESI response and fragmentation pathway, of hydrolyzed penicillin G and hydrolyzed carbenicillin have been also discussed.

Evidence shows that probiotic bacteria can undergo substantial structural and morphological changes in response to environmental stresses, including antibiotics. Therefore, this study investigated the effects of penicillin G (0.015, 0.03, and 0.06 mg/l) on the morphology and adhesion of Lactobacillus acidophilus ATCC 4356, including the colony morphotype, biofilm production, hydrophobicity, $H_2_O2$ formation, S-layer structure, and slpA gene expression. Whereas only smooth colonies grew in the presence of penicillin, rough and smooth colony types were observed in the control group. L. acidophilus ATCC 4356 was found to be hydrophobic under normal conditions, yet its hydrophobicity decreased in the presence of the antibiotic. No biofilm was produced by the bacterium, despite testing a variety of different culture conditions; however, treatment with penicillin G (0.015-0.06 mg/l) significantly decreased its production of $H_2_O_2$ formation and altered the S-layer protein structure and slpA gene expression. The S-protein expression decreased with 0.015 mg/l penicillin G, yet increased with 0.03 and 0.06 mg/l penicillin G. In addition, the slpA gene expression decreased in the presence of 0.015 mg/l of the antibiotic. In conclusion, penicillin G was able to alter the S-layer protein production, slpA gene expression, and certain physicochemical properties of Lactobacillus acidophilus ATCC 4356.

The influence of penicillin G infusion(7.5 units/min/kg) on the diuretic action of furosemide$(250{\mu}g/kg)$ in rabbits was studied to investigate the drug interaction between penicillin G and furosemide. The results were as follows: 1) There was no significant change in renal function in the penicillin G infused rabbits compared with the normal ratbit. 2) In comparison with the control group, a significant increase in ${\triangle}U_{flow},\;{\triangle}U_{Na}V,\;{\triangle}U-kV\;and{\triangle}U_{cl}V$ was noted by 30 minutes following the administration of furosemide in the penicillin G infused group. There was no significant difference in ${\triangle}C_{In},\;{\triangle}C_{PAH}$ between the two groups and ${\triangle}Na^+$ reabsorption rate was significantly decreased in the latter. The potentiating effect of penicillin G on the diuretic action of furosemide should be due to the increased luminal concentration of free form of furosemide, and it may be related to the competitive inhibition of plasma protein binding between the two drugs.

The stability of penicillin G potassium injection after reconstitution was evaluated in two different diluents of sodium chloride $0.9\%$ and dextrose $5\%$ in water stored at room temperature or refrigerated condition. The concentrations of penicillin G, stored for 24 hours at room temperature or for 10 days at refrigerated condition, were determined by HPLC. Also the pHs of the reconstituted solutions were monitored. The concentrations and pHs of penicillin G potassium 500,000 U/ml injection after reconstitution gradually decreased in all conditions. Stored at room temperature after reconstitution, a new peak which suspected as degradation products of penicillin G was detected in 5 hours in sodium chloride $0.9\%$, 4 hours in dextrose $5\%$ in water. At refrigerated condition, the new peak was detected in 4 days in both sodium chloride $0.9\%$ and dextrose $5\%$ in water. The degradation products of penicillin G allergy have been thought to be one of the substances responsible for evoking allergic reactions. In conclusion, the penicillin G potassium 500,000 U/ml injection after reconstitution was stable for 4 hours in sodium chloride $0.9\%$ 3 hours in dextrose $5\%$ in water solution at room temperature. At refrigerated condition, both solutions were stable for 3 days after reconstitution.

Penicillin G amidase(PGA, benzylpenicillinamidohydrolase, EC 3.5.1.11)는 penicillin G를 phenylacetic acid(PAA)와 6-aminopenicillanic acid(6-APA)로 분해하는 효소이다. Escherichia coli(E. coli) ATCC 11105의 PGA는 24 kDa의 small subunit과 65 kDa의 large subunit으로 구성되어 있고, precursor polypeptide에서 signal peptide와 spacer peptide가 절단되어 활성을 가진 heterodimer가 형성된다. 본 연구에서는 E. coli ATCC 11105에서 PCR(polymerase chain reaction)을 통해 증폭한 pga gene을 expression vector에 넣어 pET-pga plasmid를 제작하였고, 이것을 E. coli BL21 (DE3) 균주에 형질 전환하여 PGA를 발현하고 그 활성을 분석하였다. E. coli BL21(DE3)/pET-pga 균주의 고밀도 배양액을 SDS-PAGE로 분석 했을 때, PGA의 precursor, large subunit, 그리고 small subunit으로 보이는 protein band가 나타났으며, PGA가 soluble form의 precursor로 발현되어 processing을 거쳐서 large subunit과 small subunit으로 절단되기도 하고, 일부는 insoluble form의 precursor로 발현되기도 하는 것으로 생각된다. 유가배양시 온도변화 전략을 사용하여 고농도 배양에서 발현을 유도하였다. 온도변화 전략은 $37^{\circ}C$에서 $28^{\circ}C$를 거쳐 $22^{\circ}C$로 3단계로 변화시켰다. 이러한 전략으로 PGA활성은 19.6 U/mL이며 균체량은 600 nm에서 흡광도가 62까지 도달하였다.

The studies on design and synthesis of new monocyclic ${\beta}$-lactam esters 4(R/S)-(1'-methoxycarbonylpropyl- 2'(R/S)-thio)-3(R)-phenylacetamidoazetidin-2-one (3a) and 4(R/S)-(1'-methoxycarbonyl-2'-methylpropyl-2'- thio)-3(R)-phenylacetamidoazetidin-2-one (3b) were described. Compounds 3a and 3b were specifically designed to retain all penicillin substructures except the bicyclic system, which would be conceived by cleaving the C(3)-N(4) bond of penicillin G. Compounds 3a and 3b are of particular interest in the context of the structural elucidation of monocyclic ${\beta}$-lactams originated from penicillin. Key intermediates, ${\beta}$-mercapto esters 6a and 6b, were synthesized from conjugate acids 4a and 4b using three-step synthetic sequences, respectively, and 4(S)-acetoxy-3(S)-phenylacetamidoazetidin-2-one (7) was obtained from the degradation of penicillin G. Reactions of 6a and 6b with 7, thus obtained, provided the target compounds 3a and 3b, respectively.
