Abstract

Streptomycin is stabilized in solution by the presence of a protective agent in the form of a non-toxic, compatible salt having a mild reducing action and the adjustment of the pH to a predetermined value, the solution so formed being placed in a sealed container and then sterilized by heat, and all operations beginning with the dissolving of the streptomycin and ending with the sealing of the container being performed under an inert atmosphere. The protective agents are soluble bisulphites, thiosulphates, hypophosphites, formaldehyde sulphoxylates and bitartrates of non-toxic alkaline cations such as the alkali and alkaline earth metals, ammonia, organic amines and heterocyclic groups containing nitrogen of which sodium, potassium, calcium, ethylamine, benzylamine, pyridine and piperidine are specified. A pH of 3 to 6, preferably 3.68 to 5.5 and for optimum results 4.85, is employed with nitrogen as the preferred inert atmosphere. Examples are given of the stabilization of aqueous solutions of streptomycin sulphate in which (a) sodium metabisulphite and (b) sodium formaldehyde sulphoxylate are the protective agents. Sodium lactate or sodium citrate may also be present. The Specification as open to inspection under Sect. 91 relates to the stabilization of antibiotics in general. This subject-matter does not appear in the Specification as accepted.ALSO:Streptomycin is stabilized in solution by the presence of a protective agent in the form of a non-toxic, compatible salt having a mild reducing action, and the adjustment of the pH to a predetermined value, the solution so formed being placed in a sealed container and then sterilized by heat, and all operations beginning with the dissolving of the streptomycin and ending with the sealing of the container being performed under an inert atmosphere.
