for lactams a1 formed by homologous recombination between PBPs of different bact sp a2 by transposans from unknown org b structural differences in PBPs 21 B Inability of agent to penetrate to site of

Distribution widely distributed throughout body fluids but conc varies in diff tissues therapeutic concentrations is achieved readily in tissues and in secretions such as joint fluid pleural fluid pericardial fluid and bile Do not penetrate phagocytic cells very low conc in prostatic fluids brain tissue and intracular fluid 1 in CSF when meninges are normal 5 g when inflamed meningis Active transport process pumps penicillin s from CSF to the bloodstream This mechanism is blocked by Probenecid 28 14 Excretion Predominantly eliminated rapidly by glomerular filtration Short half life 30 90
