A multiresidue analytical method was developed for the simultaneous determination of benzylpenicillin (PCG), phenoxymethylpenicillin (PCV), oxacillin (MPIPC), cloxacillin (MCIPC), nafcillin (NFPC) and dicloxacillin (MDIPC) in meat. The method involves the use of an ion-exchange cartridge for sample clean-up followed by ion-pair high-performance liquid chromatography with ultraviolet detection. The recoveries of PCG, PCV, MPIPC, MCIPC, NFPC and MDIPC from pork muscle spiked at levels of 0.5, 0.1 and 0.05 mg/kg were in the range of 77-90, 73-95 and 80-93% with coefficients of variation of 0.5-1.7, 1.6-4.4 and 3.2-6.6%, respectively. For beef muscle spiked at levels of 0.5, 0.1 and 0.05 mg/kg, the recoveries of these compounds were 83-92, 71-86 and 77-90% with coefficients of variation of 1.7-4.4, 2.6-7.0 and 3.9-6.4%, respectively. The detection limits for each penicillin were 0.02 mg/kg in meat.

Oral streptococci may cause infective endocarditis in patients with susceptible cardiac disease after dental treatment. Multiple dental visits, each preceded by penicillin prophylaxis, may result in the unwanted development of resistant oral streptococci. This study was undertaken to determine whether resistant oral streptococci would develop after the repeated use of penicillin prophylaxis in healthy adults. Plaque samples were collected from 20 subjects on each Monday for 5 successive weeks. Each subject was administered 2 gm penicillin V followed by 1 gm 6 hours later (standard prophylaxis regimen of the American Heart Association), on three successive Mondays (weeks 2, 3, and 4). The total cultivable oral streptococci and penicillin-resistant oral streptococci were determined for each plaque sample, and representative colonies of resistant streptococci were speciated. During the study, there was a significant increase in the number of subjects who harbored penicillin-resistant oral streptococci. However, with the exception of one subject who had resistant streptococci throughout the study, the number of resistant strains represented only 0.0003% to 0.41% of the total cultivable oral streptococci.

"In vitro" synthesis of benzylpenicillin and phenoxymethylpenicillin has been carried out by direct N-acylation of 6-aminopenicillanic acid (6-APA) with S-phenylacetyl- and (S-phenoxyacetyl)glutathione. The reactions were catalyzed by the enzyme acyl-CoA: 6-APA acyltransferase (AT) from Penicillium chrysogenum and in both cases the synthesis of antibiotics was enhanced by CoA. Penicillin K, a natural penicillin, was also synthesized "in vitro" by incubating (S-octanoyl)glutathione, 6-APA and AT, but in this case the formation of antibiotic required the presence of CoA. Furthermore, benzylpenicillin was obtained from (S-phenylacetyl)cysteinylglycine and 6-APA, suggesting that some intermediates of the gamma-glutamyl cycle are directly involved in the biosynthesis of penicillins. To explain "in vivo" formation of this beta-lactam antibiotic, a biosynthetic pathway which includes several glutathione-S-derivatives and a non-enzymatic reaction, is proposed.
