Ticarcillin, a semi-synthetic penicillin with a broad spectrum of anti-microbial activity, has been used to treat endometritis in mares. It is recommended as a drug of choice for the treatment of Pseudomonas sp., especially Psuedomonas aeruginosa, as it is up to four times more active than the anti-Pseudomonas antibiotic carbenicillin (Sutherland et al., 1970; Mandell & Sande, 1990). Like most penicillins, ticarcillin has a b-lactam ring which is susceptible to b-lactamases produced by a number of bacteria, including Enterobacteriaceae and gram-positive organisms such as Streptococcus and Staphylococcus (Mandell & Sande, 1990; Rice & Bonomo, 2000).
