| Abstract | Mathematical modeling of drug effects maximizes the information gained from an experiment, provides further insight into the mechanisms of drug effects, and allows for simulations in order to design studies or even to derive clinical treatment strategies. We reviewed modeling of antimicrobial drug effects and show that most of the published mathematical models can be derived from one common mechanism-based PK–PD model premised on cell growth and cell killing processes. The general sigmoid Emax model applies to cell killing and the various parameters can be related to common pharmacodynamics, which enabled us to synthesize and compare the different parameter estimates for a total of 24 antimicrobial drugs from published literature. Furthermore, the common model allows the parameters of these models to be related to the MIC and to a common set of PK–PD indices. Theoretically, a high Hill coefficient and a low maximum kill rate indicate so-called time-dependent antimicrobial effects, whereas a low Hill coefficient and a high maximum kill rate indicate so-called concentration-dependent effects, as illustrated in the garenoxacin and meropenem examples. Finally, a new equation predicting the time to microorganism eradication after repeated drug doses was derived that is based on the area under the kill-rate curve. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
