title: [Effects of dihydrostreptomycin and gentamycin on platelet membrane Na+-K+ATPase].
abstract: The use of aminoglycosides is characterised by a bound linkage between therapeutic and toxical levels. The aim of our study was to define the influence of diidrostreptomicin and gentamicin over Na+-K+ATPase of membranes of platelets. In this study, Bounting's and Caravaggio's method has been used, while ATPase activity was expressed in n mol of hydrolized ATP/min/mg of proteins. The data so obtained showed that the antibiotics were able to block up ATPase activity.
