Product Description
Nafcillin sodium monohydrate, the sodium salt of mono-hydrated form of Nafcillin (Nallpen; Unipen), is a penicillin analog and a beta-lactam antibiotic against staphylococcal infections, acting as a reversible inhibitor of β-lactamase.
Nafcillin sodium monohydrate (CAS 7177-50-6) is a semi-synthetic, beta-lactam antibiotic belonging to the penicillin class, developed primarily for its resistance to beta-lactamases. With a molecular formula of C₂₁H₂₂N₂NaO₅S (anhydrous) and a molecular weight of 454.47 g/mol, this compound is a cornerstone in the treatment of infections caused by penicillinase-producing staphylococci. Nafcillin sodium monohydrate is used to treat infections caused by Gram-positive bacteria, in particular, species of staphylococci that are resistant to other penicillins. It is a narrow-spectrum beta-lactam antibiotic drug. The compound was first approved in 1965 and is indicated for infection. It should be stored at +4°C.
Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
Targets
Nafcillin sodium monohydrate targets penicillin-binding proteins (PBPs), which are transpeptidases essential for the final stages of bacterial cell wall synthesis. By binding to and inhibiting these PBPs, it prevents the cross-linking of peptidoglycan chains, a critical component of the bacterial cell wall. This weakens the cell wall, leading to osmotic instability and ultimately bacterial cell lysis and death. Its resistance to beta-lactamases makes it effective against penicillinase-producing staphylococci. Its narrow-spectrum activity is primarily directed against Gram-positive bacteria, particularly staphylococci.
ln Vitro
In vitro, Nafcillin sodium monohydrate exhibits potent antibacterial activity against penicillinase-producing staphylococci. Its activity is typically assessed by determining the minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) against various bacterial strains using standard microbiological methods such as broth microdilution or agar diffusion. Its resistance to beta-lactamases makes it effective against many beta-lactamase-producing bacteria. Its activity is concentration-dependent, with higher concentrations leading to more rapid bacterial killing. Time-kill assays are used to evaluate its bactericidal activity over time.
ln Vivo
Methicillin-susceptible Staphylococcus aureus (MSSA) and methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) are both susceptible to the bactericidal action of napcillin sodium monohydrate (100 mg/kg; sc); S. Mice were exposed to aureus strains Xen-29 and Xen-1 at concentrations of 0.5 μg/mL and 64.0 μg/mL, respectively [3].
In vivo, Nafcillin sodium monohydrate is used to treat infections caused by Gram-positive bacteria, particularly species of staphylococci that are resistant to other penicillins. It is administered intravenously or intramuscularly and is well-distributed in tissues and body fluids. Its clinical use is limited by the development of bacterial resistance and potential side effects. The compound's efficacy in treating staphylococcal infections has been established through clinical use. It has a maximum clinical trial phase of IV.
Enzyme Assay
In vitro non-cell enzyme assays for Nafcillin sodium monohydrate are not standard, as it is an antibiotic that targets a cellular process (cell wall synthesis). Its mechanism is studied by measuring its binding affinity to PBPs in membrane preparations. The compound's stability against β-lactamases can be assessed by incubating it with β-lactamase enzymes and measuring its degradation.
Cell Assay
In vitro cell-based assays for Nafcillin sodium monohydrate use standard microbiological methods, such as broth microdilution and agar diffusion, to determine the MIC against various bacterial strains. Time-kill assays are used to evaluate its bactericidal activity over time. Its activity against penicillinase-producing staphylococci is of particular interest. Cytotoxicity assays using mammalian cell lines are performed to assess its selectivity.
Animal Protocol
Animal/Disease Models: CD-1 female mice (20-25 grams), infected with MRSA and MSSA [3]
Doses: 100 mg/kg
Route of Administration: subcutaneous injection
Experimental Results: 100% protection of healthy mice infected with MSSA.
In vivo animal studies for Nafcillin sodium monohydrate employ models of bacterial infection, such as murine sepsis or pneumonia models. The compound is administered, and its efficacy is measured by the reduction in bacterial load, survival rates, or clinical signs of infection. Pharmacokinetic studies are also performed to characterize its absorption, distribution, metabolism, and excretion.
ADME/Pharmacokinetics
Nafcillin sodium monohydrate has a molecular weight of 454.47 g/mol and a molecular formula of C₂₁H₂₂N₂NaO₅S (anhydrous). It is also known as Nafcillin Sodium Salt Monohydrate. The compound should be stored at +4°C. As a beta-lactam antibiotic, it is susceptible to degradation by β-lactamases and should be handled appropriately. Its pharmacokinetic profile supports intravenous or intramuscular administration.
Toxicity/Toxicokinetics
Nafcillin sodium monohydrate is generally well-tolerated, but side effects can include gastrointestinal disturbances, hypersensitivity reactions, and effects on blood coagulation. It is contraindicated in patients with a history of hypersensitivity to penicillins. Its use can lead to the development of antibiotic resistance. The compound is not intended for human therapeutic use without a prescription.
