Aztreonam is a synthetic β-lactam antibiotic originally isolated from Chromobacterium violaceum. As a monobactam, it contains a single β-lactam ring instead of the fused β-lactam and thiazolidine rings found in generic β-lactams. Due to its unique structure, Aztreonam is not typically inactivated by β-lactamases. Aztreonam is used in microbiology, cancer research, and plant tissue culture applications.
Aztreonam is soluble in ethanol, DMSO and DMF but is practically insoluble in water.
