  • Title: Non-competitive inhibition of the alcohol dehydrogenase activity in rat liver by latamoxef, cefamandole or cefoperazone.
    Author: Freundt KJ, Schreiner E, Christmann-Kleiss U.
    Journal: Arzneimittelforschung; 1986 Feb; 36(2):223-5. PubMed ID: 3516159.
    Abstract:
    High concentrations of 1 or 10 mmol/l latamoxef (LMOX), cefamandole (CMD) or cefoperazone (CPZ) in vitro non-competitively inhibit to a small extent the alcohol dehydrogenase isolated from rat liver in the presence of ethanol as a substrate, as is shown by enzyme-kinetic data evaluated in a Lineweaver-Burk diagram. This observation may serve as an approach to partially explain a possible delay of ethanol elimination from the blood after pretreatment with these beta-lactam antibiotics.
