Cefalonium, a cephalosporin antibiotic, demonstrates effectiveness against a collection of S. aureus strains obtained from the milk of lactating dairy cows experiencing mastitis, with a minimum inhibitory concentration of 2 µg/ml. Cefalonium, classified as a first-generation cephalosporin antibiotic, exhibits activity against aerobic gram-positive bacteria and certain gram-negative bacteria acquired within communities. The name for cefalonium is (6R,7R)-3-[(4-carbamoyl-1-pyridin-1-iumyl)methyl]-8-oxo-7-[(1-oxo-2-thiophen-2-ylethyl)amino]-5-thia-1-azabicyclo[4.2.0]oct-2-ene-2-carboxylate. Cefalonium hydrate belongs to the cephalosporin family.
