General description
Cefuroxime is a new broad-spectrum cephalosporin antibiotic, with increased stability to β-lactamases. It is actively used against gram-positive organisms, including penicillinase-producing staphylococci and non-β-lactamase-producing gram-negative bacteria.
Chemical structure: ß-lactam
Application
Cefuroxime may be used as a reference standard in the determination of cefuroxime in plasma samples using high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC).(3)
