Thienamycin (CAT: R0623241) is a naturally occurring antibiotic produced by the bacteria Streptomyces cattleya. It is a member of the beta-lactam family of antibiotics, which also includes penicillins and cephalosporins. Thienamycin is structurally distinct from other beta-lactam antibiotics, as it contains a thiazolidine ring in addition to the beta-lactam ring. It is a broad-spectrum antibiotic with activity against both Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria, including some strains that are resistant to other antibiotics. Thienamycin is used clinically to treat a variety of bacterial infections, including those caused by Pseudomonas aeruginosa and other multidrug-resistant bacteria.
