This webinar will provide an overview of animal infection models commonly used for studies of antibiotics against gram-negative bacteria. The webinar is driven by the COMBINE objective to harmonize and standardize a protocol for a mouse infection model used for efficacy and PKPD studies. The infection model will be validated through well-characterized bacterial strains and control compounds in different animal labs. During the webinar we would like to initiate a discussion on pro’s and con’s of various procedures and animal models, aiming to guide which animal infection model COMBINE should focus on.
