Study of Protein Haptenation by Amoxicillin Through the Use of a Biotinylated Antibiotic
Allergic reactions towards β-lactam antibiotics pose an important clinical problem. The ability of small molecules, such as a β-lactams, to bind covalently to proteins, in a process known as haptenation, is considered necessary for induction of a specific immunological response. Identification of th...
