Title: Correlation between growth inhibition and the binding of various penicillins and cephalosporins to Staphylococcus aureus. Author: Edwards JR, Park JT. Journal: J Bacteriol; 1969 Aug; 99(2):459-62. PubMed ID: 5808073. Abstract: The concentration of penicillin (or cephalosporin) required to achieve a given rate of binding to Staphylococcus aureus H correlates well with that required for inhibition of growth. This result suggests that the irreversible binding of penicillins and cephalosporins to cells is responsible for their biological activity.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
