Description

Piperacillin is a semisynthetic broad-spectrum β-lactam antibiotic which exhibits potent bactericidal activity against Gram-negative bacteria as well as select Gram-positive strains through penicillin-binding proteins. Piperacillin is most commonly used in combination with the β-lactamase inhibitor Tazobactam[1][2][3].

In Vitro

Piperacillin (12.5 μg/mL, 24h) inhibits 92% of isolates of Pseudomonas aeruginosa, 82% of Serratia marcescens, 73% of Escherichia coli, 61% of Klebsiella spp, and 42% of Enterobacter spp, most Proteus spp. were extremely susceptible. Piperacillin fails to inhibit the growth of gram-negative bacilli when large inocula were used (minimum inhibitory concentration > 25 μg/ml) [2].

MedChemExpress (MCE) has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.

In Vivo

Piperacillin (100 mg/kg, i.v., 4 times a day, 5 d) in combination with Tazobactam (HY-B1418)(12.5 mg/kg, i.v., 4 times a day, 5 d) prolongs survival in mice with low inoculum of K. pneumoniae[3].

MedChemExpress (MCE) has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.

Animal Model: BALB/c low inoculum model of K. pneumoniae, KEN-11 strain [3]
Dosage: 100 mg/kg
Administration: Intravenous injection (i.v.), 4 times a day, 5 d, in combination with Tazobactam (12.5 mg/kg, i.v., 4 times a day, 5 d)
Result: Enabled all mice survived whereas all control mice died by 5 d, decreased the number of bacteria in lungs compared with control group[.
Observed no bacteria in the blood of most mice (except for two mice at the early phase) while bacteria were observed in the blood of control group.
Observed few inflammatory cells in the alveoli whereas an influx of numerous inflammatory cells were observed in the control group.

In Vivo:

Select the appropriate dissolution method based on your experimental animal and administration route.

For the following dissolution methods, please ensure to first prepare a clear stock solution using an In Vitro approach and then sequentially add co-solvents:
To ensure reliable experimental results, the clarified stock solution can be appropriately stored based on storage conditions. As for the working solution for in vivo experiments, it is recommended to prepare freshly and use it on the same day.
The percentages shown for the solvents indicate their volumetric ratio in the final prepared solution. If precipitation or phase separation occurs during preparation, heat and/or sonication can be used to aid dissolution.

  • Protocol 1

    Add each solvent one by one:  10% DMSO    40% PEG300    5% Tween-80    45% Saline

    Solubility: ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (4.83 mM); Clear solution

    This protocol yields a clear solution of ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (saturation unknown).

    Taking 1 mL working solution as an example, add 100 μL DMSO stock solution (25.0 mg/mL) to 400 μL PEG300, and mix evenly; then add 50 μL Tween-80 and mix evenly; then add 450 μL Saline to adjust the volume to 1 mL.

    Preparation of Saline: Dissolve 0.9 g sodium chloride in ddH₂O and dilute to 100 mL to obtain a clear Saline solution.
  • Protocol 2

    Add each solvent one by one:  10% DMSO    90% (20% SBE-β-CD in Saline)

    Solubility: ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (4.83 mM); Clear solution

    This protocol yields a clear solution of ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (saturation unknown).

    Taking 1 mL working solution as an example, add 100 μL DMSO stock solution (25.0 mg/mL) to 900 μL 20% SBE-β-CD in Saline, and mix evenly.

    Preparation of 20% SBE-β-CD in Saline (4°C, storage for one week): 2 g SBE-β-CD powder is dissolved in 10 mL Saline, completely dissolve until clear.

Help & FAQs
  • Do most proteins show cross-species activity?

    Species cross-reactivity must be investigated individually for each product. Many human cytokines will produce a nice response in mouse cell lines, and many mouse proteins will show activity on human cells. Other proteins may have a lower specific activity when used in the opposite species.
