Product Description
Mechanism of action
Cefmenoxime hydrochloride is a third-generation cephalosporin with high stability to β-lactamases and strong activity against both gram-negative and gram-positive organisms. It targets PBPs and disrupts peptidoglycan crosslinking, leading to bactericidal cell-wall damage.
Benefits and advantages
Used in hospital-pathogen research, β-lactamase-stability studies, gram-negative susceptibility testing, cephalosporin SAR analysis, and PK/PD investigations of advanced-generation cephalosporins.
Side effects and risks
Risks include hypersensitivity, GI disturbances, hepatic enzyme alteration and selection of resistant subpopulations. Handle with antimicrobial compound safety measures.
