Cefquinome sulfates are fourth-generation veterinary parenteral cephalosporins and belong to the class of aminothiazolyl compounds. They have a broad spectrum of antimicrobial activity against Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria such as Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Enterobacteriaceae.
Cefquinome sulphate can be used as an analytical reference standard to determine the pharmaceutical dosage form by reverse phase high-performance liquid chromatography (RP-HPLC). Cefquinome sulfate also serves as a precursor for the production of cefquinome, which is used as an analytical reference standard for the detection of cefquinome in cow's milk and muscle and kidney samples by HPLC or LC coupled to tandem mass spectrometry (MS/MS).
