Overview

Cefazolin is a first-generation semisynthetic cephalosporin antibiotic commonly used in microbiological and pharmaceutical research. It exhibits strong bactericidal activity primarily against Gram-positive bacteria by inhibiting bacterial cell wall synthesis through binding to penicillin-binding proteins (PBPs).

Due to its well-characterised mechanism of action and stability, Cefazolin is frequently employed in antibiotic susceptibility studies, microbial growth inhibition assays, and laboratory research applications.
