    Experimental and clinical studies on cefoperazone (CPZ), a new synthetic cephalosporin, were performed in the field of pediatrics.
    1) The MICs of CPZ against 26 strains of S.aureus, 21strains of E.coli, 20 strains of K.pneumoniae and 15 strains of H.influenzae which were clinically isolated were estimated and compared with those of CEZ and ABPC.Some strains were found to be high in the MIC of CPZ against S. aureus, E.coli and K.pneumoniae by original inoculation but 88% of S.aureus, 95% of E.coli, 95% of K.pneumoniae and 100% of H.influenzae were under 6.25 mcg/ml by 100 times dilution inoculation.
    The MIC of CPZ against S.aureus was inferior to CEZ and superior to ABPC, and that against E. coli, K.pneumoniae and H.influenzae was superior to CEZ and ABPC.
    2) The serum concentration, urinary concentration and recovery rate from urine were measured in two healthy infants and one infant in the stage of convalescence from cholangiohepatitis after a single intravenous administration of 25 mg/kg of CPZ. The mean serum concentration in the two healthy infants was 88.0mcg/ml at 30 minutes, 63.0at 1 hour, 31.4 at 2 hours, 12.2at 4 hours and 4.2at6hours;the half-life was 1.29 hours, and the recovery rate from urine was 14.5%.
    3) The clinical effect of CPZ was examined in 16 cases of acute lobar pneumonia or acute bronchopneumonia, 1 case of acute bronchitis and 4 cases of acute urinary tract infections.
    All of the cases responded effectively or markedly effectively.Among the causative bacteria in those cases, 2 strains of S.pneumoniae, 1 strain of S.faecalis, 1 strain of H.influenzae and 2 strains of E.coli and 1 strain of K.pneumoniae disappeared following the administration of CPZ.
    The bacteriological effect against 1 strain of P.aeruginosa was unknown, but clinical effectiveness was observed in this case.
    No clinical side effects were observed.Laboratory examination carried out before and after the administration revealed a rise of GOT and eosinophilia in each one case, but in both abnormality returned to normal after termination of therapy.

    The authors have carried out the laboratory and clinical studies of cefoperazone (CPZ). The results were as fbllows:
    The sensitivity was estimated by plate dilution method on 26 strains of S.aureus, E.coli and K. pneumoniae, 25 strains of P.aeruginosa, 14 strains of Salmonella sp.and 9 strains of GM resistant P.aeruginosa is olated from patient S.The distribution of sensitivity of S.aureus was 1.56-25mcg/ml and the peak of distribution was 3.13mcg/ml.The growth of 96.2% of E.coli was inhibited at concentration of less than 12.5mcg/ml.The growth of 50.0% of K.pneumoniae was in hibited at concentration of less than 6.25mcg/ml.The peak of distribution of P.aeruginosa was 12.5-25mcg/ml (GM sensitive) and 12.5mcg/ml (GM resistant). CPZ was given by drip infusion for 30 minutes at a single dose of 25mg/kg to 2 children, and by drip infusion for 60 minutes at a single dose of 46.9mg/kg to a child.The serum mean level of CPZ was 127.5±8.5mcg/ml at 30 minutes, 30.5±7.5mcg/ml at 1 hour, 235±3.5mcg/ml at 2 hours, 10.5±1.5mcg/ml at 4 hours and 6.8±2.4mcg/ml at 6 hours after administration at a single dose of 25mg/kg, respectively.The serum level was 102.0mcg/ml at 1 hour, 32mcg/ml at 2 hours,.14.5mcg/ml at 5 hours and 12.5mcg/ml at 7 hours after administration at a single dose of 46.9mg/kg.Half-life time was 92 minutes.
    The mean urinary excretion rate was 32.0±7.3%in the drip infusion for 30 minutes up to 8 hours after administration.
    CPZ was effective in 6 of 8 cases with pediatric bacterial infections.
    No side effects were observed except for 1 case with elevation of GOT.

    Clinical evaluation was made on cefoperazone (CPZ) and the following conclusions were obtained.
    (1) Serum concentrations of the drug after a one-shot intravenous injection of 22.2mg/kg were 77mcg/ml (30 minutes), 50mcg/ml (1 hour) and 8.9mcg/ml (4hours) and T1/2 of serum concentration was 68.5 minutes.A 35-day-0ld female with obstructive jaundice associated with choledochal.cyst was given by a 30-minute drip infusion of 26.8mg/kg of the drug.Serum concentration was 90mcg/ml at the end of infusion, slowly declined thereafter, and was 47.5mcg/ml at 6hours.Its T1/2 was 395 minutes.A patient with pyelonephritis complicated with right hydronephrosis was similarly treated with 24.4mg/kg.T1/2 of serum concentration was not prolonged, i.e., 82.1minutes, but urinary recovery rate up to 6 hours was decreased to 15.9%.
    (2) Five patients, including three with pyelonephritis (causative organism: K.pneumoniae 2 and P.aeruginosa 1) and each one patient with pneumonia (unknown) and with postoperative infection (S. faecalis), respectively, were treated with 66.7-96.8mg/kg/day of CPZ in 3 divided doses for 5-12 days either by one-shot intravenous or by 30-60-minute drip infusion.An overall efficacy rate was excellent in 3 and good in 2, and there was no failure.Causative organisms disappeared in all cases.
    (3) Although one patient was excluded from the study because the diagnosis was supposed to be viral proumonia, all six patients who were given CPZ did not exhibit any adverse reactions except for mild eosinophilia in two instances.
    (4) The foregoing results as well as the review of the literature clearly indicate the eHectiveness of CPZ in the treatment of bacterial infections in children.
