Cefacetrile

A semi-synthetic first-generation cephalosporin, patented in the second half of the 1960s and active against gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria; it is also used in veterinary medicine, for udder infections in dairy cows. This family brings together the active ingredient and other impurities.

Did you know?The name echoes its side chain: a small cyanoacetyl group, containing a nitrile (-CN), attached to the 7-aminocephalosporanic acid core shared by many cephalosporins.
