| Bioactivity | Cefmetazole sodium (Sodium cefmetazole) is a semisynthetic cephamycin antibiotic with broad-spectrum antibacterial activity, covering gram-positive, gram-negative, and anaerobic bacteria. Cefmetazole sodium binds to penicillin binding proteins (PBPs), resulting in interfering bacterial cell wall biosynthesis. Cefmetazole sodium is used for the research of gynecologic, intraabdominal, urinary tract, respiratory tract and skin and soft tissue infections[1][2][3]. |
| Invitro | Cefmetazole sodium (Sodium cefmetazole) has antibiotic affinity to S. aureus with a MIC value of 1.0 mg/L and has affinity for PBP1, PBP2 and PBP3 with IC50 values of ≤0.3, 0.109 and 0.494 mg/L[1]. |
