Characterising vancomycin's immunotoxic profile using Swiss and CFW mice as an experimental model

Immunotoxicology can lead to determining the adverse effects of different compounds on the immune system. Sometimes, many drugs (especially antibiotics) induce immune alterations, mainly auto-immunity. This study was aimed at determining vancomycin's immunotoxic effect by comparing the original molecule to two of the most used copies. Thirty-two mice from two murine strains (Swiss and CFW) were treated with three antibiotic formulations for...
