Abstract
A simple and rapid ultra-high-performance liquid chromatography (UHPLC) method using UV detection was developed for the simultaneous determination of eight β-lactam antibiotics in human plasma, including four penicillins, amoxicillin (AMX), cloxacillin (CLX), oxacillin (OXA), and piperacillin (PIP), and four cephalosporins, cefazolin (CFZ), cefepime (FEP), cefotaxime (CTX), and ceftazidime (CAZ). One hundred-microliter samples were spiked with thiopental as an internal standard, and proteins were precipitated by acetonitrile containing 0.1% formic acid. Separation was achieved on a pentafluorophenyl (PFP) column with a mobile phase composed of phosphoric acid (10 mM) and acetonitrile in gradient elution mode at a flow rate of 500 μl/min. Detection was performed at 230 nm for AMX, CLX, OXA, and PIP and 260 nm for CFZ, FEP, CTX, and CAZ. The total analysis time did not exceed 13 min. The method was found to be linear at concentrations ranging from 2 to 100 mg/liter for each compound, and all validation parameters fulfilled international requirements. Between- and within-run accuracy errors ranged from -5.2% to 11.4%, and precision was lower than 14.2%. This simple method requires small-volume samples and can easily be implemented in most clinical laboratories to promote the therapeutic drug monitoring of β-lactam antibiotics. The simultaneous determination of several antibiotics considerably reduces the time to results for clinicians, which may improve treatment efficiency, especially in critically ill patients.

Abstract
A weak ion exchange monolithic column prepared by modifying the GMA-MAA-EDMA (glycidyl methacrylate-methacrylic acid-ethylene glycol dimethacrylate) monoliths with ethylenediamine was applied to remove matrix compounds in biological fluid. Using this monolithic column, on-line clean-up and screening of oxacillin and cloxacillin in human urine and plasma samples had been investigated. Chromatography was performed by reversed-phase HPLC on a C(18) column with ultraviolet detection at 225 nm. Results showed that the ion exchange monolithic column could be used for deproteinization and retaining oxacillin and cloxacillin in human urine and plasma, which provided a simple and fast method for assaying drugs in human urine and plasma.

Abstract
Antimicrobial efficacy in orthopedic device infections is diminished because of bacterial biofilms which express tolerance to antibiotics. Recently, the use of high doses of levofloxacin with rifampin has been recommended for staphylococcal infections. In the present study, we evaluated the efficacy of levofloxacin at doses of 50 mg/kg/day and 100 mg/kg/day (mimicking the usual and high human doses of 500 mg/day and 750 to 1,000 mg/day, respectively) and compared it to that of to linezolid, cloxacillin, vancomycin, and rifampin in a rat tissue cage model of experimental foreign-body infection by Staphylococcus aureus. The antimicrobial efficacy in vitro (by MIC, minimum bactericidal concentration, and kill curves) for logarithmic- and stationary-phase bacteria was compared with the in vivo efficacy. In vitro bactericidal activity at clinically relevant concentrations was reached by all drugs except rifampin and linezolid in the log-phase studies but only by levofloxacin in the stationary-phase studies. The bacterial count decreases from in vivo tissue cage fluids (means) for levofloxacin at 50 and 100 mg/kg/day, rifampin, cloxacillin, vancomycin, linezolid, and controls, respectively, were: -1.24, -2.26, -2.1, -1.56, -1.47, -1.15, and 0.33 (all groups versus controls, P < 0.05). Levofloxacin at 100 mg/kg/day (area under the concentration-time curve/MIC ratio, 234) was the most active therapy (P = 0.03 versus linezolid). Overall, in vivo efficacy was better predicted by stationary-phase studies, in which it reached a high correlation coefficient even if the rifampin group was excluded (r = 0.96; P < 0.05). Our results, including in vitro studies with nongrowing bacteria, pharmacodynamic parameters, and antimicrobial efficacy in experimental infection, provide good evidence to support the use of levofloxacin at high doses (750 to 1,000 mg/day), as recently recommended for treating patients with orthopedic prosthesis infections.

Abstract
In the framework of a preliminary investigation on the plasma profile of cloxacillin after oral administration, a simple and rapid LC method was developed for the direct determination of this compound in human plasma. The on-line sample clean-up was carried out using a weak anion exchanger (diethylaminoethyl groups) as restricted access material (RAM). The effects of the washing liquid pH, the ionic strength and the addition of organic modifier to the washing liquid were studied in order to obtain an efficient sample clean-up and a high recovery of cloxacillin. The separation was achieved on octadecylsilica stationary phase using a mobile phase consisting in a mixture of phosphate buffer (pH 4.0; 25 mM) and acetonitrile (72:28, v/v). The UV detection was performed at 215 nm. The most appropriate regression model of the response function as well as the limit of quantitation (LOQ) were first selected during the pre-validation step. These criteria were then assessed during the formal validation step. The LOQ was 50 ng/ml. The method was also validated with respect to analyte recovery, precision, trueness, accuracy and linearity. Finally, it was successfully applied for the analysis of the first plasma samples obtained from patients having taken an oral dose of 500 mg cloxacillin.

Abstract
Fusidic acid and cloxacillin were studied in patients who underwent joint aspiration for noninfectious disorders. Nine patients were given oral 500 mg fusidic acid tid for 72 h, the last dose being given 4, 8 or 12 h before the joint aspiration. Cloxacillin was administered in a single 2 g iv dose to 9 patients, 0.5, 4 or 8 h before the aspiration. Bactericidal activity was determined against five isolates each of methicillin-susceptible and methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus. Satisfactory activity (> or = 1:3) was detected in the serum in patients who received fusidic acid, while in the synovial fluids titres reflected borderline effectiveness (c. 1:2). Despite drug concentrations and excellent MICs, fusidic acid demonstrated markedly lower inhibitory and bactericidal activity against S. aureus than did cloxacillin.

Abstract
Cefepime (1 g), ceftazidime (1 g), and cloxacillin (2 g) were administered intravenously to 10 volunteers each. After infusion of a single dose over 30 min, blood samples were obtained at 0.5, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 8, 10, and 12 h (for ceftazidime at 0.5 and 4 h) after dosing. Drug levels were determined by the bioassay method. Serum bactericidal activity against five clinical isolates of cloxacillin-susceptible Staphylococcus aureus were determined by the microdilution method according to the National Committee for Clinical Laboratory Standards guidelines. The mean peak serum level was 76.88 +/- 24.71 mg/L for cefepime, 42.8 +/- 15.98 mL/L for ceftazidime, and 92.81 +/- 24.7 mg/L for cloxacillin. Concentrations of cefepime were detected during the whole testing period (mean trough level, 1.43 +/- 0.9 mg/L at 12 h), whereas concentrations of cloxacillin were measurable up to 5 h after administration (mean trough level, 0.90 +/- 0.97 mg/L). The mean peak reciprocal bactericidal titers were 29.41 for cefepime, 5.6 for ceftazidime, and 377 for cloxacillin. Effective bactericidal titers were detected as long as 5 h for cefepime (approximately 40% of the dosing interval) and 3 h for cloxacillin (at least 50% of the dosing interval). For ceftazidime, serum bactericidal activity was markedly lower compared with that of cefepime. Although cefepime has demonstrated an improved antistaphylococcal bactericidal activity compared with ceftazidime, it was somewhat lower than that of cloxacillin.

Abstract
A rapid and sensitive high-performance liquid chromatographic method is described for the determination of cloxacillin residues in milk and serum. Only a clean-up step after deproteinization is necessary before the analysis. The chromatographic system involves the use of a C18 column and ultraviolet absorbance detection at 225 nm. The mobile phase was acetonitrile-0.02 M KH2PO4 (21:79) at pH 5. Recoveries for cloxacillin were 83.5 and 75.7% in serum and milk, respectively. Detection limits (10 ng/ml in milk and 50 ng/ml in serum) were below the stipulated European Union maximum residue limits for cloxacillin. Thus, the described method showed the same accuracy, precision and sensitivity as the microbiological assays but without interferences caused by other drugs commonly used in therapy. Analysis of different blood and milk samples obtained at different times from dairy cows treated with an intramammary dose of cloxacillin benzatine showed undetectable cloxacillin levels both in milk and blood samples.

Abstract
We studied the influence of diclofenac on the pharmacokinetics of cloxacillin in healthy volunteers, 60 years or older, as well as the possible effect of cloxacillin and diclofenac on urinary protein excretion. In a randomized, double-blind, cross-over study 15 subjects were given 1 g cloxacillin, and placebo or 75 mg diclofenac, as single intravenous doses. Plasma concentrations of cloxacillin were followed over 10.5 hr, and urine excretion of cloxacillin over 24 hr. The effect of the drugs on urinary excretion of protein indicators of glomerular (albumin, IgG) and tubular (protein HC) function was also studied. Total plasma clearance of cloxacillin was with placebo 219 +/- 51 (mean +/- S.D.), and with diclofenac 212 +/- 39 ml/min./1.73 m2 (ns); renal clearance was 97 +/- 21 and 96 +/- 24 ml/min./1.73 m2, respectively (ns). The terminal t1/2 of cloxacillin was 1.03 +/- 0.42 hr with placebo, and 1.12 +/- 0.37 with diclofenac (ns). The mean ratio of AUC0-infinity's (cloxacillin plus diclofenac/cloxacillin plus placebo) was 1.03 (90% CI: 0.99, 1.08). Urinary excretion of the proteins was low and was not increased by cloxacillin or diclofenac. In healthy volunteers, 60 years or older, diclofenac does not alter cloxacillin pharmacokinetics, and neither cloxacillin nor diclofenac in single intravenous doses cause renal dysfunction.

Abstract
Using dynamic and equilibrium dialysis methods, it has been demonstrated that ascorbic acid (CAS 50-81-7) inhibits the binding of cloxacillin sodium (CAS 7081-44-9) to bovine serum albumin (BSA) in vitro. Normally, ascorbic acid has a lower number of binding sites and a much lower binding constant for BSA than cloxacillin sodium. There is an indication that ascorbic acid inhibits the binding of cloxacillin to BSA through a noncompetitive mechanism. The probable interactions leading to the non-competitive inhibition were suggested.

Abstract
1. Eleven patients undergoing lumbar discectomy received cloxacillin by continuous i.v. infusion, starting before the operation. During the operation several blood samples and one CSF sample were taken. 2. Mean rate constants describing the passive transfer of drug from plasma to CSF (kp) and the largely active transfer in the opposite direction (kCSF) were estimated. 3. In some subjects the CSF albumin quotient, defined as the ratio between the albumin concentration in CSF and in plasma times 1000, was slightly elevated (up to 23) which caused a significant increase in the value of kp. 4. The estimate of mean kp for healthy individuals was 0.065 h-1, which corresponds to a half-life of 10 h. The estimate of mean kCSF was 2.10 h-1. This predicts a steady-state CSF drug concentration which is 3% of the unbound plasma drug concentration. 5. There was a significant lag between the time courses of plasma and CSF drug concentrations, presumably reflecting the time for drug to move from the choroid plexus to the lumbar sampling site. 6. Four other patients received cloxacillin for prophylactic or therapeutic reasons by continuous i.v. infusion. In three of those patients the albumin quotient was normal or slightly elevated and the steady-state CCSF/Cu ratio was similar to the predicted normal value. 7. These findings indicate that eradicating staphylococci from CSF in cases of meningitis with a low degree of inflammation may be difficult.

Abstract
After a 30 min i.v. infusion of 1 g cloxacillin, the concentrations of this antibiotic were measured in plasma and synovial tissue samples from 11 patients undergoing total hip replacement. Assuming passive distribution between plasma and tissue the rate constants of distribution were estimated. The mean half-life of distribution was 22 min. The concentration of free drug in synovial tissue was estimated to be 77% of the total tissue concentration. The maximum tissue drug concentration after an i.v. bolus dose is predicted to occur at about 37 min.

Abstract
Concentrations of cloxacillin in plasma and deep thoracic muscle tissue were measured in 10 patients who underwent elective coronary bypass surgery or valve replacement. One g of cloxacillin was administered after the induction of anaesthesia and 1 g cloxacillin was added to the oxygenator pump priming fluid before the start of the procedure. Blood and tissue samples were obtained before, during and after cardiopulmonary bypass. The relation between unbound plasma concentrations and total tissue contents of the drug was calculated. It was shown that measurement of the free plasma concentration may provide fairly reliable information on the free concentrations of cloxacillin in the tissues, and that determination of tissue contents may therefore not be necessary. Due to the administration of the second dose of cloxacillin at the start of cardiopulmonary bypass free tissue contents were just adequate in most patients. However, to obtain adequate tissue concentrations after bypass it is recommended that a third dose of the antibiotic be administered before the end of the operation.

Abstract
The in vivo efficacy of daptomycin, a new cell wall-active anti-gram-positive-bacterial agent, was compared to those of cloxacillin and vancomycin in a rat model of Staphylococcus aureus endocarditis. Both methicillin-susceptible S. aureus (MSSA) and methicillin-resistant S. aureus (MRSA) strains were used. When therapy was initiated early (8 h) after infection, at the time when valvular bacterial counts were relatively low (approximately 10(6) CFU/g of vegetation), 3 days of therapy was found to be effective against the MSSA strains whatever the antibiotic regimen. In contrast, when the onset of therapy was delayed up to 15 h after infection, so that higher bacterial counts could develop on the valves (approximately 10(9) CFU/g of vegetation), a longer period of treatment (6 days) was required to cure infection. Under these conditions after 3 days of therapy, daptomycin was more effective than cloxacillin and vancomycin against the MSSA strains. Similarly, daptomycin showed a greater activity than vancomycin against the MRSA strain after 3 days of treatment, but after 6 days both antibiotics were equally effective. Decreasing doses of daptomycin showed decreasing activity: 10 mg/kg of body weight every 12 h (q12h) was better than 5 mg/kg q12h, whereas 5 mg/kg q24h (providing drug levels in blood detectable only during the first 12 h) failed to cure infection. In vitro, daptomycin was highly bactericidal at high concentrations (25 and 60 micrograms/ml, corresponding to peak levels in serum after doses of 5 and 10 mg/kg, respectively) and bacteriostatic at lower concentrations (0.5 to 2.5 micrograms/ml, corresponding to trough levels in serum). In conclusion, against low-bacterial-count S. aureus endocarditis, daptomycin showed an efficacy similar to those of vancomycin and cloxacillin. Against high-bacterial-count S. aureus endocarditis, daptomycin showed a higher bactericidal activity than cloxacillin (against the MSSA strains) and vancomycin (against both the MSSA and MRSA strains).

Abstract
To determine the magnitude of cloxacillin loss during surgical procedures involving significant blood loss and high fluid replacement, we compared the pharmacokinetics of cloxacillin in children during craniomaxillofacial surgery with the disposition of the drug in healthy young adult volunteers with intact circulation. Blood loss during craniofacial operations may exceed blood volume, in some cases by as much as three times. Hemodynamic replacement with electrolyte solutions and blood products, which do not contain the drug, further dilute cloxacillin concentrations. In the patients that we studied, mean drug loss was estimated at 71%. Cloxacillin concentrations in serum fell below the lower range of the MIC for Staphylococcus aureus during significant portions of the surgical procedures. Thus, the traditional dosing of cloxacillin during prolonged operations with massive blood loss is inadequate. A more frequent dosing interval or priming of all replacement fluids with the drug may be required to maintain therapeutic levels. Our findings suggest that massive blood loss is likely to have a dramatic effect on the level of any drug with a small distribution volume. If such a drug is essential to the patient's well-being (e.g., antibiotics, antiarrhythmics, and anticonvulsants), it must be replaced promptly.

Abstract
Disposition kinetics of cloxacillin were examined in calves after topical administration of benzathine cloxacillin and single IV administration of sodium cloxacillin, and the susceptibility of 17 field isolates of Moraxella bovis was measured. For the IV pharmacokinetic phase, sodium cloxacillin was administered at dosage of 10 mg/kg of body weight to male Holstein calves (n = 6, weighing 146 to 170 kg), and serum concentration of cloxacillin was measured thereafter for 10 hours. For the ocular pharmacokinetic phase, 6 calves were given either of 4 benzathine cloxacillin topical formulations consisting of 50-, 125-, 250-, or 375-mg doses. Treatment was repeated every 10 days until all 4 benzathine cloxacillin dosages were tested in the same 6 calves. Blood and tears were collected for 72 hours after each benzathine cloxacillin formulation was administered, and the concentration of cloxacillin in each specimen was measured, using a bioassay. The minimal inhibitory concentration of cloxacillin for 17 field isolates of M bovis was determined by use of an agar pour-plate dilution assay. After single IV administration of sodium cloxacillin, its half-life, body clearance, and volume of distribution were 19.5 +/- 12.8 minutes, 18.3 +/- 2.2 ml/min.kg, and 496 +/- 290 ml/kg, respectively. After topical administration of benzathine cloxacillin, cloxacillin concentration in lacrimal fluid peaked between 30 and 45 minutes and ranged between 963 micrograms/ml and 3,256 micrograms/ml for the 125- and 375-mg doses, respectively. There was no detectable cloxacillin activity in the lacrimal fluid of any calf by 36 hours after topical administration of benzathine cloxacillin, and cloxacillin was not detected in the serum at any time.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

Abstract
Serum levels of cloxacillin and benzylpenicillin were monitored in 35 consecutive adult patients undergoing elective open-heart surgery. Serial serum samples were analyzed during a 24-hour period. After oral intake of cloxacillin and phenoxymethylpenicillin on the preceding evening, very low concentrations remained in serum at the start of operation. Such preoperative medication is inappropriate. Intravenously administered cloxacillin (2 g) and benzylpenicillin (3 g) appeared to be adequate during the first 4 hours of surgery, as the serum half-life of the drugs was twice as long in the patients as in healthy adults, but repetition of the doses is recommended for further antibiotic protection during surgery.

Abstract
A simple reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatography method using probenecid as internal standard was used for the quantitation of serum cloxacillin in eight Asian patients. The method does not require the extraction of the antibiotic from serum and the percentage recovery of cloxacillin was 96-103%. The presence of ampicillin, fusidic acid, benzylpenicillin, and gentamicin in serum appeared not to interfere with the method. The day-to-day coefficient of variation of the method over 6 months for 4-120 micrograms/ml ranged between 6.2 and 11.5%. In the eight patients in whom cloxacillin was administered intravenously or orally, there was great interindividual and intra-individual variation in the serum concentrations attained. The highest concentration of 85 micrograms/ml was obtained in a sample taken 1.5 h after an intravenous dose of 1 g. The lowest concentration of less than 1 microgram/ml was from a sample taken 6 h after an oral dose of 500 mg.

Abstract
A rapid, specific and sensitive high pressure liquid chromatographic (HPLC) assay for the simultaneous determination of ampicillin and cloxacillin in serum and urine is developed. Ampicillin, cloxacillin and cephalexin (internal standard) were eluted from a 6.5 mu Synchropack RPP reversed phase column at ambient temperature using a mobile phase comprised of methanol:water (3/7v/v) and containing 0.011 M sodium-n-octane sulphonate, 0.005 M NaH2PO4 and 1.3% v/v of 0.5 M HCl (pH 2.7). The analysis time required no longer than 11 min. Equations are presented for the linear relationships between the peak height ratios of ampicillin/cephalexin and cloxacillin/cephalexin over the range 10-80 micrograms/ml (ampicillin) and 5-25 micrograms/ml (cloxacillin), respectively. The sensitivity limits for ampicillin and cloxacillin in serum and urine were 5 micrograms/ml and 1 microgram/ml, respectively. Quality criteria such as accuracy, precision and specificity were studied extensively. We investigated the applicability of the HPLC assay for the developed simultaneous determination of the cumulative amounts of ampicillin and cloxacillin, excreted unchanged in urine after an oral dose containing 500 mg ampicillin and 500 mg cloxacillin to a human volunteer.

Abstract
A 3 X 3 factorial design has been used to study the effects of pH and acetonitrile concentration of the eluents on the retention and resolution of cloxacillin, flucloxacillin and dicloxacillin on a C18 column. The logarithm of the capacity factors of these solutes have been found to vary linearly with the pH and quadratically with the acetonitrile content. The equations generated have been employed to predict experimental conditions necessary for an optimum separation. The chromatographic condition selected has been applied to the quantitation of flucloxacillin in human plasma using dicloxacillin as the interval standard. Sample preparation consists of protein precipitation and solid-phase extraction. The detection limit of the assay at 220 nm for flucloxacillin is in the region of 0.1 microgram/ml. This assay has been employed in a study of the relative bioavailability of two commercial flucloxacillin sodium capsules in ten healthy volunteers.

Abstract
We investigated the diffusion of penicillin-G, cloxacillin, clindamycin, and netilmicin into synovial fluid and membrane in rabbits. Purulent arthritis was induced in the right knee of each rabbit by inoculation of Staphylococcus aureus phage type 3C, whereas sterile saline was injected into the left knee to serve as a control. Two days later, concentrations of antibiotics were determined in serum, synovial fluid, and membrane after an intramuscular single dose. All four drugs diffused readily into infected joints, whereas the corresponding concentrations in the normal joints were 2-3 times lower. Clindamycin showed the highest intraarticular penetration, cloxacillin the lowest. The lower penetration of cloxacillin corresponded to its higher protein binding in rabbit serum. Considering the sufficient local concentrations achieved, parenteral treatment obviates the need for local instillation of these antibiotics.

Abstract
The concentrations of cefamandole, cloxacillin and fusicid acid were measured in the serum and heart tissue of 100 recipients of these drugs before cardiac surgery. During cardiopulmonary bypass, mean (+/- standard deviation) peak concentrations in serum of all patients were 63.0 +/- 34.0 micrograms of cefamandole per ml, 30.8 +/- 17.7 micrograms of cloxacillin per ml, and 32.4 +/- 10.8 micrograms of fusidic acid per ml. Mean (+/- standard deviation) concentrations in atrial appendages taken 1 h (+/- 15 min) after infusion were 21.3 +/- 11.0 micrograms of cefamandole per g, 23.8 +/- 17.3 micrograms of cloxacillin per g, and 10.7 +/- 4.2 micrograms of fusidic acid per g. No cloxacillin could be detected in 5 of 39 heart specimens. Mean tissue-to-serum ratios at 1 h for cefamandole, cloxacillin, and fusidic acid were respectively 0.35, 0.73, and 0.33. Fusidic acid, a drug which is highly effective in vitro against both methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus and Staphylococcus epidermidis, was detectable in heart tissue in concentrations which were 12 times higher than the MICs of this agent against these resistant microorganisms.

Abstract
Prophylactic use of antibiotics in open-heart surgery for insertion of prosthetic valves is common, because of the serious consequences of postoperative staphylococcal infections, most notably prosthetic valve endocarditis. To ensure effective antibiotic cover during surgery, the penetration of cloxacillin and benzylpenicillin into the heart muscle and valves was studied intraoperatively. Both antibiotics were given intravenously (respective initial doses 2 g and 6 g) at induction of anesthesia to ten patients undergoing replacement of aortic or mitral valve, and the same doses were repeated after 4 hours. Serial serum samples and tissue samples from the right atrial auricle and the excised heart valve were analyzed for antibiotic concentrations. The mean serum concentrations of cloxacillin were 204 +/- 93 mg/l 10 min after the initial dose and less than or equal to 26 mg/l 30 min before the second dose. The corresponding values for benzylpenicillin were 323 +/- 145 and 43 +/- 24 mg/l. The cloxacillin concentrations in the auricle just before the start of extracorporeal circulation ranged from 4.5 to 80 mg/kg and (later) in the excised heart valves they were 8.5 to 45 mg/kg. The benzylpenicillin range was 16 to 153 mg/kg in auricle and 13 to 87 mg/kg in valve tissue. The authors conclude that the employed doses of the penicillins are adequate cover against the staphylococci which may be implicated in postoperative infections.

Abstract
Because of reports of lowered antibiotic serum concentrations in patients with cystic fibrosis (CF), a bioavailability and pharmacokinetic study of cloxacillin was conducted in 12 control and 16 patients with CF after intravenously and orally administered doses of cloxacillin 25 mg/kg. The patients had mild to moderate CF and were in stable condition. Significantly lower serum concentrations in CF were a result of a 78% increase in total body clearance (P less than 0.005) and a 38% increase in the apparent volume of distribution (P less than 0.025). The bioavailability in CF (0.50) was not significantly different than in controls (0.38), but more variability was seen in the group with CF. After the intravenously given dose the fraction of cloxacillin excreted in the urine unchanged was similar in controls (0.644) and patients with CF (0.547). Compared with that in the control subjects, the mean renal clearance in patients with CF was 30% greater (P less than 0.10) and the nonrenal clearance was 144% greater (P less than 0.07). Enhanced nonrenal clearance explains most of the demonstrated difference between serum concentrations in controls and patients with CF after identical weight-adjusted doses. The data suggest enhanced cloxacillin biotransformation in CF.

Abstract
Rabbits with established staphylococcal endocarditis, injected twice at an interval of 2 h with either 0.5 mg of cloxacillin per kg or saline, were sacrificed 2.5 h after the second injection. Vegetations were excised, weighed, and cultured, and ultrathin sections were prepared and examined by light microscopy, transmission electron microscopy, and scanning electron microscopy. Several affected valves were examined histologically. Concentrations of cloxacillin in serum were determined 1 and 3 h after dosage. Staphylococci grown on membranes placed on agar containing 0.09 micrograms of cloxacillin per ml and in broth at the same cloxacillin concentration (one-third of the MIC) were examined by transmission electron microscopy. The mean numbers of CFU per gram of vegetations from control and treated rabbits were 2.28 X 10(10) and 1.31 X 10(10), respectively. Vegetations of treated rabbits contained staphylococci of normal size and form as well as organisms two to six times larger than normal with multiple cross walls. Larger bacterial cells were usually located in areas close to blood; cells of normal size were usually embedded in fibrin. The structures of these staphylococci and those grown on membranes in the presence of 0.09 micrograms of cloxacillin per ml were comparable but were different from those grown in broth containing this concentration of cloxacillin. Concentrations of cloxacillin in serum were 0.166 micrograms/ml at 1 h and 0.286 micrograms/ml at 3 h after dosage. The similarities in ultrastructure between staphylococci in vegetations of treated rabbits and staphylococci grown on membranes suggest that the vegetations contained approximately 0.09 micrograms of cloxacillin per g. Thus, antibiotic penetration from blood into vegetations and diffusion into fibrin were limited.
