Enzyme linked immunosorbent assay for ceftazidime in airborne samples.
A simple and rapid enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) method for the cephalosporin, ceftazidime, has been developed for the quantification of this antibiotic in solutions that have been eluted from filters following the capture of air samples in the workplace. The assay has the specificity, sensitivity and precision necessary for its use in determining airborne concentrations of ceftazidime in the workplace as part of an occupational health and hygiene programme.
