Bioactivity Meropenem trihydrate (SM 7338 trihydrate) is a carbapenem antibiotic with broad-spectrum antibacterial activity. Meropenem trihydrate has activity against susceptible and resistant N. gonorrhoeae (MIC value of 0.02-0.06 mg/mL), H. influenzae (MIC value of 0.03-0.12 mg/mL), and H. ducreyi (MIC value of 0.015-0.12 mg/mL)[1][2].
Invitro Meropenem is intrinsically stable to dehydropeptidase-1 (DHP-1) degradation and Meropenem acts by inhibiting bacterial cell wall synthesis by binding to and inactivating penicillin-binding proteins (PBPs). Meropenem possesses broad-spectrum in vitro activity, which includes activity against many Gram-positive, Gram-negative and anaerobic bacteria; Meropenem lacks activity against Enterococcus faecium, methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus and Stenotrophomonas maltophilia[2].
