[Study of the sterilization of the Na salt of methicillin using accelerated electrons].
Comparison of sodium methicillin samples irradiated and not-irradiated with fast electrons (10 Me V, 2.5 Mrad) showed no differences with respect to the content of the active substance and a number of physico-chemical properties according to the USSR State Pharmacopoeia, Xed. Yet, the irradiated samples did  not meet the requirements for powder appearance, colour and solution transparence.
