Reaction Steps

About 610 mg (3.34 mole) of particulate lysine was dissolved in 50 ml of distilled water. Additionally, 1.0 gram (1.67 mole) of ceftriaxone was dissolved in 50 ml of a separate volume of distilled water. The solution containing arginine was adjusted with 1N-HCl until the solution reached pH 6.0. The ceftriaxone solution was then added to the lysine solution and stirred by a magnetic stirrer at room temperature for 1 hour forming a ceftriaxone-lysine solution. To the ceftriaxone-lysine solution was added about 400 mg of carrageenan and the solution was stirred by magnetic stirrer at room temperature for 2 hours. A ceftriaxone-lysine-carrageenan hydrogel was formed. The hydrogel was then freeze-dried while in the swollen state, yielding about 1.92 g of the freeze dried complex.
