A method for spectroscopic determination of ceftriaxone in saliva of healthy subjects and patients with upper respiratory tract infections was developed. The concentration range is 1-50 mcg/ml. The method is express and simple, and can be used to determine ceftriaxone in clinical tests and pharmacokinetic studies. Possible determination of ceftriaxone in aqueous solutions was demonstrated which is useful in analysis of drugs.

Introduction: Patients with cerebral hemorrhage often require a tracheal intubation to protect the airway and maintain oxygenation. Due to the use of analgesic and sedative drugs during endotracheal intubation and the opening of the glottis may easily cause aspiration pneumonia. Ceftriaxone is a semi-synthetic third-generation cephalosporin with strong antimicrobial activity against most gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria.
