N E W F E A T U R E S ----------------------------------------------------------------- - Another 10,000 molecular models have been added. We now have over 210,000 molecular models on-site. - Local (mirror) downloads of the 3D Viewer plug-ins added. No more *Site not responding* messages - hopefully! - Over 50 new models added to our Top 2000.

Zyvox also received approval for treatment of hospital-acquired pneumonia and complicated skin and skin structure infections, including cases due to methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA). In addition, approval was granted for treatment of community-acquired pneumonia and uncomplicated skin and skin structure infections. Infections due to Enterococcus faecium and MRSA are a particular problem in hospitalized or immuno-compromised individuals. These organisms are often resistant to multiple antibiotics. Vancomycin has, for many years, served as the treatment of last resort for these infections. But its effectiveness has fallen in recent years as drug-resistant strains have appeared. http://www.webmolecules.com/cgi-bin/webmolpage.cgi?vancomcn.m3d Zyvox is the first in a new class of synthetic drugs (oxazolidinones). Pharmacia and Upjohn, based in Kalamazoo, Mich., developed Zyvox and will market it in the United States. ------------------ WebMolecules News Sponsor ------------------ Join the Elementalists at SCIENCEbase.com for the latest reactive science communication on the Web from award winning science writer David Bradley. http://www.sciencebase.com/ ------------------( Please Visit This Sponsor!)------------------ S U G G E S T I O N B O X ----------------------------------------------------------------- Is there a new feature you would like to see at WebMolecules?
