Abstract

In this study we have evaluated the antibacterial activity of six cephalosporins of the first generation (cephacetrile, cephalothin, cefazolin, cephaloridin, cephalexin, cephradine) two cephalosporin of the second generation (cefoxitin and cefuroxime) and two of the third generation (cefotaxime and cefoperazone) against 66 clinical bacterial isolates. Cefotaxime has been highly active against the strains examined in this study with low MICs.
