Abstract: An antibacterial composition for medical use comprising a cephalosporin or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof and a .beta.-lactamase-inhibiting compound having a .beta.-lactam ring. The composition exhibits synergistic effect which is much greater than the sum of antibacterial effects of each component used alone.

Abstract: A 7.alpha.-methoxycephalosporin represented by the general formula: ##STR1## wherein R.sup.1 represents a hydrogen atom or a carboxyl-protecting group; R.sup.2 represents an organic group linked to the carbon atom through an oxygen or sulfur atom; R.sup.3 represents a lower alkyl group; n is 0, 1 or 2; A represents a hydrogen atom or a substituted or unsubstituted alkyl group; and B represents a substituted or unsubstituted alkyl, cycloalkyl, cycloalkenyl, cycloalkadienyl or heterocyclic group, and a salt thereof. These compounds have a broad antibacterial spectrum, high resistance to .beta.-lactamase produced from bacteria, and an effective antibacterial activity against clinical isolates of bacteria.

Abstract: A process is disclosed for producing spherical particles or fibers with a specially fixed size from a melt of metal, slag, or flux, by introducing the melt onto the center of a rotating disk through a conduit so as to form a thin film stream of boundary layer on the disk; projecting the thin film stream at a high speed from the disk periphery into surrounding space to split up the film stream into linear streams; and cooling the linear streams for producing fibers or cooling droplets after further splitting of the each linear stream into droplets for producing spherical particles, with or without parallel or countercurrent gas flow to the linear streams.

Abstract: A method for treating a host mammal having a decreased immunity, comprising administering to said host mammal an immunostimulating effective amount of the deproteinized extract from the poison pouch contents of bee B-T, is disclosed.

Abstract: Novel penicillins and cephalosporins and non-toxic salts thereof, which contain a mono- or di-oxo- or thioxo-piperazino(thio)carbonylamino group have been prepared. These compounds are valuable anti-bacterial compounds for use in mammals including man. A process for the preparation of the compounds has also been discovered.

Abstract: An antibacterial composition for medical use comprising 6-[D(-)-.alpha.-(4-ethyl-2,3-dioxo-1-piperazinylcarbonylamino)phenylacetam ido]penicillanic acid or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof and a .beta.-lactamase-inhibiting penicillin or cephalosporin. The composition exhibits synergistic effect which is much greater than the sum of antibacterial effects of each component used alone.

Abstract: A process disclosed for producing spherical articles or fibers with a specially fixed size from a melt of metal, slag, or flux, by introducing the melt onto the center of a rotating disk through a conduit so as to form a thin film stream of boundary layer on the disk; projecting the thin film stream at a high speed fom the disk periphery into surrounding space to split up the film stream into linear streams; and cooling the linear streams for producing fibers or cooling droplets after further splitting of the each linear stream into droplets for producing spherical particles, with or without parallel or countercurrent gas flow to the linear streams.
