Neutropenic Rat Thigh Infection Model for Evaluation of the Pharmacokinetics/Pharmacodynamics of Anti-Infectives

ABSTRACT The neutropenic mouse infection model is extensively used to characterize the pharmacokinetics/pharmacodynamics (PK/PD) of anti-infective agents. However, it is difficult to evaluate agents following intravenous (i.v.) infusions using this model. Furthermore, in many drug discovery programs...
