Amikacin disulfate
Amikacin sulfate (BAY416651 sulfate) is a semi-synthetic aminoglycoside antibiotic derived from kanamycin A. (In Vitro) :Amikacin offers definite advantages for treating infections caused by organisms resistant to other aminoglycosides. Amikaci is affected by relatively few arninoglycoside-modifying enzymes. Amikacin is useful in the treatment of infections caused by Nocardia asteroides, Mycobacterium avium-intracellulare, and certain species of "rapid-growing" mycobacteria (that is, M. chelonae and M. fortuitumi) .Amikacin (100-1500 μM) causes a reliable dose-dependent loss of lateral line zebrafish hair cells with a LD50 value of 453 μM. (In Vivo) :Amikacin (320 mg/kg; subcutaneous injection; daily; for 10 days; male Fischer rats) treatment increases the chance of serious hearing loss in rats in vivo.
