  • $\beta$-Lactams are historically and clinically representative antibiotics used for therapeutic purposes. In early days, penicillin (penam antibiotic) and cephalosporin (cephem antibiotic) were found in culture broth of two different filamentous fungi, Penicillium chrysogenum and Acremonium chrysogenum. Since 1970, a variety of $\beta$-lactam structures have been discovered from bacterial cultures including Streptomyces species, which are known as cephamycin, cephabacin (cephem antibiotics), clavulanic acid (oxopenam antibiotic), thienamycin (carbapenem antibiotic), and sulfazecin (monobactam antibiotic).

  • An effective method for the simultaneous analysis of ${\beta}$-lactams from surface water was established. After solid-phase extraction with HLB (Hydrophilic Lipohilic Balance) cartridge at pH 2, seven ${\beta}$-lactams (amoxicillin, ampicillin, penicillin G, cefaclor, cefadroxil, cefatrizine and cephradine) were determined using LC/ESI-MS/MS. In this newly established method, correlation coefficients ($r^2$) of calibration curves for seven ${\beta}$-lactams in blank surface water appeared to be 0.9911~0.9995 in the concentration range of 0.01~1.0 ng/mL. The limits of detection (LODs) and the limits of quantificaiton (LOQs) in spiked surface water were shown to be 0.0003~0.0234 ng/mL and 0.0046~0.0778 ng/mL, respectively. The developed method is believed to serve as a rapid and reliable method for the qualitative and quantitative analysis of residual ${\beta}$-lactam antibiotics from aquatic environment.

  • New antibiotics having moieties of penicillanic acid, cephalosporanic acid and ampicillin on both ends of the central polyalkylene were synthesized by reacting 6-aminopenicillanic acid (6-APAl), 7-amino cephalosporanic acid (7-ACA) and ampicillin with hexamethylene diisocyanate and sebacoyl chloride, respecetively. Antibiacterial activities of the compounds were also investigated.

  • The emergence of extended spectrum ${\beta}$-lactamase producing bacteria is causing very serious problems in Korea. Although there have been many reports about these bacteria Isolated from patients and clinical specimens, there is no report of extended spectrum ${\beta}$-lactamase producing organisms isolated from natural environment in Korea. This study was conducted to investigate the biological characteristics and extended spectrum ${\beta}$-lactamase types of eighteen strains of extended spectrum ${\beta}$-lactamase producing Klebsiella pneumoniae and Escherichia coli isolated from a slaughterhouse in Pusan in Korea during 2002 to 2004. Extended spectrum ${\beta}$-lactamases were identified by double-disk synergy test, conjugation, isoelectric focusing values and gene sequencing. Eight strains of Klebsiella pneumoniae and two strains of Eschericha coli were isolated kom pigs and transferred extended spectrum ${\beta}$-lactamase genes to recipient Escherichia coli J53 (sodium azide resistant and ceftazidime senstive) strain by conjugation. The conjugants of extended spectrum ${\beta}$-lactamase genes were alignments and translated to amino acids by BCM and NCBI blast. Eight conjugants of Klebsiella pneumonae were typed TEM-52, and two strains of Escherichia coli, SHV-12, but CMY-1 type were not detected in this study.

  • A gas chromatography-mass spectrometric (GC/MS) procedure for the determination of amineptine (dihydro-10, 11-dibenzo[a, d] cycloheptenyl-5-amino-7-heptanoic acid) and its main metabolites in human urine was described. Amineptine has been known to be extensively metabolized by the ${\beta}$-oxidation of the heptanoic side chain with formation of pentanoic side chain metabolite ($C_5$-metabolite), and lactamizarion by internal dehydration of (${\beta}$-oxidized metabolite (${\delta}$-lactam). The detection of these compounds was based on acid hydrolysis, liquid-liquid extraction and trimethylsilylated derivatization of the carboxylic acid group. For the determination of amineptine and its metabolites in biological fluids, selected ions at the m/ 192, molecular ion and one of the characteristic ions were monitored by GC/MS. On the excretion study of amineptine in human urine, 70-90% of amineptine, ${\delta}$-lactam, and $C_5$-metabolite were found to be excreted within 4 hours and their excretion completed within 20 hours.
