Abstract
FR264205 is a novel parenteral 3'-aminopyrazolium cephalosporin. Here, we compared the stability of FR264205 against AmpC beta-lactamase of Pseudomonas aeruginosa with that of ceftazidime. The effect of ampD inactivation, which causes a moderate degree of hyperinducible AmpC expression, on the minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) of FR264205 was eight-fold less than that on the MIC of ceftazidime. Hydrolysis efficiency (k(cat)/K(m)) towards FR264205 was substantially lower than that towards ceftazidime owing to a 20-fold-higher K(m) value. These results indicate that FR264205 is more stable against AmpC beta-lactamase than ceftazidime because of its low affinity.Entities:
