accepted 12 January 1987
Aqueous solutions of ceftriaxone in concentrations similar to those achieved in man and stored at temperatures of 4°C, 22°C and 37°C for up to four weeks were tested in methylcellulose cultures of normal bone marrow from ten donors.
No significant differences were detected between the colony formation by neutrophil and macrophage precursors in control cultures and in cultures containing stored ceftriaxone.
It is concluded that aqueous ceftriaxone solutions stored for up to four weeks at temperatures up to 37°C are not altered to such an extent that they adversely affect colony formation by bone marrow progenitor cells from healthy donors.
