Antistaphylococcal activity of ceforanide and cefonicid in the presence of human serum

A L Barry et al. Antimicrob Agents Chemother. 1986 Jan.

Abstract

Tests with 52 strains of Staphylococcus aureus compared ceforanide and cefonicid. Addition of 50% human serum to the test system reduced the bacteriostatic and bactericidal activities of cefonicid, but ceforanide was not affected as greatly.
