Cefazolin sodium
Cefazolin sodium is a first-generation cephalosporin antibiotic that exerts its bactericidal effect by binding to penicillin-binding proteins (PBPs) . This action inhibits bacterial cell wall synthesis, leading to cell lysis. It is widely used in research for studying antimicrobial mechanisms and efficacy in both in vitro and in vivo models against susceptible Gram-positive bacteria.
