Sensitivity of L-forms of group A streptococci to 5 antibiotics such as erythromycin, lincomycin, tetracycline, gentamicin and chloramphenicol was studied in an artificial nutrient medium and cell cultures i.e. human fibroblast diploid cells and transplantable human heart cells (Girardi). In vitro investigation of the antibiotic effect on the streptococcal L-forms revealed their sensitivity to erythromycin (MIC, 0.4 micrograms/ml), lincomycin (MIC, 0.08 microgram/ml) and tetracycline (MIC, 2 micrograms/ml). The streptococcal L-forms were slightly sensitive to gentamicin (MIC, 6 micrograms/ml) and chloramphenicol (MIC, 30 micrograms/ml). Complete inhibition of the growth of the L-forms in the Girardi cells on the 1st day of the experiment after the antibiotics administration in single doses was induced by lincomycin, 5 micrograms/ml, erythromycin, 10 micrograms/ml, and tetracycline, 100 micrograms/ml. In the diploid cells, the respective figures were 50, 100 and 200 micrograms/ml. Chloramphenicol and gentamicin had an inhibitory effect on the growth of the L-forms but produced no sanative effect.  相似文献

One hundred and thirty strains of Corynebacterium diphtheriae isolated in St. Petersburg (42 toxigenic and 88 nontoxigenic) were tested with the method of serial dilutions in solid media for their susceptibility to 20 antibacterial drugs. The MICs of the drugs for the isolates ranged from < or = 0.015 to > or = 32.0 micrograms/ml. 13 per cent of the isolates was resistant at least to one antibacterial drug. The isolates resistant to erythromycin (11.5 per cent), lincomycin (11.5 per cent) and trimethoprim (8.5 per cent) were most frequent. 3 isolates (2.3 per cent) had multiple resistance to 8 drugs: benzylpenicillin, ampicillin, oxacillin, chloramphenicol, erythromycin, lincomycin, trimethoprim, and nitroxolin. No significant differences in the susceptibility of the toxigenic and nontoxigenic strains of C. diphtheriae were detected. Gentamicin, rifampicin, tetracycline, doxycycline and pefloxacin were the most active antibiotics.  相似文献

Over the past 25 years a total of 7492 strains of Neisseria gonorrhoeae have been isolated in Czechoslovakia, mainly in Prague (64%). All these strains have been tested for susceptibility to the following antibiotics: penicillin G, ampicillin, tetracycline, spectinomycin, erythromycin, doxycycline, kanamycin, rifampin, chloramphenicol, gentamicin, cephalothin, cephaloridine, lincomycin and clindamycin. In addition, seven derivatives of newer antibiotics of penicillin and cephalosporin series were tested in 1981. The study showed that in 1957 the MIC of 0.03 units of penicillin per ml was effective against 95% of strains, but in 1981 only 37% of isolates were sensitive to this concentration. The first gonococcal strains with the MIC value of 4.0 units/ml to penicillin were detected in 1981. This tendency towards decreased gonococcal susceptibility to benzylpenicillin is alarming. Over the last eight years there have been described sporadic isolations of strains relatively resistant to tetracycline (MIC = 8.0 mg/l). The susceptibility to spectinomycin has been tested in over 4000 gonococcal strains, since 1967. The test showed that this antibiotic remained highly effective against the gonococcal infection with over 95% of gonococci with the MIC value of 16.0 mg/l. No fully spectinomycin resistant strains have been found. Penicillin G as well as spectinomycin and cefotaxim are still considered the antibiotics of the first choice in the treatment of gonorrhoea. The alternative antibiotics may include cefuroxim, chloramphenicol and, in cases of sensitive strains, tetracyclines.  相似文献

One hundred consecutive isolates of N. gonorrhoeae were tested for susceptibility to penicillin, ampicillin, tetracycline, erythromycin, kanamycin, cephaloridine and cephalexin by an agar dilution method. Relative resistance to penicillin was frequent. For 39% of isolates the minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) of penicillin was 0.05 U./ml. or less; in 55% the MIC was 0.5 to 2.0 U./ml. Ampicillin was slightly more active than penicillin G: all isolates were inhibited by 0.5μg./ml. or less. Resistance to tetracycline and erythromycin was frequent with MIC of 1 μg./ml. or greater observed in 32 and 24% of isolates respectively. The MIC of kanamycin for all gonococci was 8 μg./ml. or greater. Cephalexin was slightly more active than cephaloridine, though each drug exhibited a wide range of MIC values. Gonococcus isolates resistant to penicillin (MIC of 1.0 U./ml. or greater) tended to be resistant to the other antibiotics tested.  相似文献

A collection of lactobacilli comprising species of Lactobacillus plantarum (43 isolates), Lactobacillus brevis (9 isolates) and Lactobacillus fermentum (6 isolates) obtained from spontaneous fermentations of capers (the fruits of Capparis spinosa) were investigated for resistance to antimicrobial agents. All isolates were resistant to vancomycin and teicoplanin (MIC > 16 μg/ml). Resistance to ciprofloxacin (MIC > 2 μg/ml) was detected in all isolates of L. brevis and L. fermentum as well as in most isolates of L. plantarum, whilst resistance to levofloxacin showed a much lower incidence. Among L. plantarum and L. brevis isolates, low levels of resistance to tetracycline and/or nitrofurantoin were detected. Higher resistance levels were also detected in some isolates. Resistance to penicillin and rifampicin were also detected among L. plantarum isolates. All isolates were sensitive to ampicillin, erythromycin, chloramphenicol, gentamicin, streptomycin, and quinupristin/dalfopristin.  相似文献

Sensitivity of the tularemia causative agent of different geographical races to antibiotics such as streptomycin, tetracycline, gentamicin, rifampicin (20 strains), ampicillin, polymyxin M, erythromycin, oleandomycin (361 strains) and lincomycin (294 strains) was studied. High sensitivity of the tularemi a microbe to streptomycin, tetracycline, rifampicin (MIC of 10 gamma/ml), gentamicin (MIC of 1 gamma/ml) and resistance to 50 gamma of ampicillin and 1000 gamma/ml of polymyxin M were found. Combined use of 50 gamma of ampicillin and 100 gamma/ml of polymyxin M added to the nutrient medium for growth inhibition of the foreign flora on isolation of the tularemia causative agent from the infected material including stable laboratory animal carcases was recommended. Marked differences in sensitivity of the strains of different geographical races to the macrolides and lincomycin were observed. The strains of the non-Arctic and Central Asiatic races were of low resistance to the above drugs (the MIC of erythromycin, oleandomycin and lincomycin were 10--50, 50--400 and 25--100 gamma/ml respectively. Within the holarctic race 40 per cent were low resistant and 60 per cent were highly resistant to these drugs. The above drugs should not be used for treatment of tularemia cases.  相似文献

Sensitivity of 125 strains of group B streptococci isolated from newborns, their mothers and personnel in a maternity home was studied with respect to 12 antibiotics: benzylpenicillin, ampicillin, methicillin, cephalotin, erythromycin, lincomycin, levomycetin (chloramphenicol), oxacillin, tetracycline, streptomycin, gentamicin and ristomycin. The method of serial dilutions in a solid medium was applied. All the strains were sensitive to ristomycin and erythromycin. The predominating number of the strains were sensitive to lincomycin, levomycetin and the beta-lactam antibiotics. Strains resistant or moderately resistant to benzylpenicillin, ampicillin, oxacillin, methicillin and cephalotin were detected. The majority of the strains were resistant to streptomycin, tetracycline and gentamicin. Multiple antibiotic resistance with 2-7 determinants was revealed in 11.2 per cent of the strains. The antibiotic sensitivity of the strains isolated from the newborns, their mothers and the personnel in the maternity home was on the whole similar or insignificantly differed.  相似文献

Strains of Serratia marcescens (isolated in a hospital during April and August 2000) resistant to ampicillin, chloramphenicol, trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole, streptomycin, tetracycline, and gentamicin were characterized. Out of a total of 34 clinical isolates 6 (17.6 %) exhibited the extended spectrum beta-lactamases (ESBL) resistance; they were also resistant to cefotaxime (minimum inhibitory concentration, MIC > or = 128 microg/mL) but susceptible to imipenem (MIC < or = 0.5 microg/mL). This multidrug resistance was shown to be transferred by a conjugative plasmid. Transconjugants revealed similar MIC profiles when compared to the parental strains. Isoelectric focusing revealed one major transferable beta-lactamase (pI 8.4) which was further identified as CTX-M-3 by PCR and gene sequencing. The presence of strains with this type of ESBL showed the evolution of bla genes and their dissemination among at least three species of the family Enterobacteriaceae isolated within a single hospital. The predominance of CTX-M type enzymes found in this area of Taiwan appeared to be similar to that described in Poland.  相似文献

Survey of antimicrobial resistance in lactic streptococci   总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2  
A total of 26 strains of Streptococcus cremoris and 12 strains of Streptococcus lactis were challenged with 18 antimicrobial agents and with nisin in the Bauer-Kirby disk susceptibility test. All strains were susceptible to ampicillin, bacitracin, cephalothin, chloramphenicol, chlortetracycline, erythromycin, penicillin G, tetracycline, and vancomycin. All strains were resistant to trimethoprim, and almost all strains were resistant to sulfathiazole. Variability in resistance to gentamicin, kanamycin, lincomycin, nafcillin, neomycin, nisin, rifampin, and streptomycin was observed. MICs of these substances for the less susceptible strains were determined, and high-level resistance factors could not be detected, except in the case of nisin. S. lactis ATCC 7962 was resistant to at least 40-fold-higher concentrations of nisin (greater than 64 micrograms/ml) than most other strains tested. This strain was a potent nisin producer.  相似文献

Action of Lincomycin on Staphylococci   总被引:1,自引:1,他引:0       下载免费PDF全文
On a solid medium, 0.1 to 1 μg/ml of lincomycin hydrochloride had a bacteriostatic effect upon 95 of 100 strains of staphylococci. Using cellophane transfers, we observed a bactericidal effect upon 54 of these strains after 3 to 14 hr of contact with 1 μg/ml. Five staphylococcal strains resistant to 100 μg/ml of lincomycin were also resistant to penicillin G, streptomycin, erythromycin, tetracycline, chloramphenicol (three strains), and rovamycin (three strains). Other staphylococcal strains resistant to methicillin, ampicillin, tetracycline, streptomycin, chloramphenicol, and erythromycin were sensitive to lincomycin.  相似文献

The antimicrobial susceptibility of five Lyme disease spirochete strains (two human and three tick isolates) was determined. A macrodilution broth technique was used to determine on three separate test occasions the minimal inhibitory concentrations (MICs) of seven antibiotics. The Lyme disease spirochete was most susceptible to erythromycin with a MIC of less than or equal to 0.06 micrograms/ml. The spirochete was also found to be susceptible to minocycline, ampicillin, doxycycline, and tetracycline-HCL with respective mean MICs of less than or equal to 0.13, less than or equal to 0.25, less than or equal to 0.63, and less than or equal to 0.79 micrograms/ml. The spirochete was moderately susceptible to penicillin G with a mean MIC of 0.93 micrograms/ml. All strains were resistant to rifampin at the highest concentration tested (16.0 micrograms/ml).  相似文献

Three hundred and twenty two Shigella cultures isolated from dysentery patients within 1986-1989 were tested with the use of standard paper disks for their sensitivity to levomycetin, streptomycin, tetracycline, monomycin, neomycin, kanamycin, erythromycin, gentamicin, carbenicillin, ampicillin, oxacillin, methicillin and doxycycline. The number of the cultures belonging to Shigella sonnei amounted to 85.1 per cent of the total number of the strains studied. 91.9, 89.5, 87.3, 87.3, 80.1 and 80.1 per cent of the cultures were sensitive to gentamicin, kanamycin, carbenicillin, neomycin, levomycetin and ampicillin, respectively. 99.4 per cent of the isolates were resistant to streptomycin and 97.2 per cent were resistant to tetracycline. The sensitivity to erythromycin remained rather high (70.2 per cent). The overwhelming majority of the Shigella sonnei isolates had multiple resistance.  相似文献

A total of 34 isolates ofListeria monocytogenes were tested against ampicillin, cephalothin, chloramphenicol, erythromycin, tetracycline, and penicillin-G using the Autobac 3-h AIS and the Autobac 5-h MIC procedures. The results were compared to susceptibility category interpretations and MICs determined using the Sceptor system. With the Sceptor System, all isolates were interpreted to be moderately susceptible to ampicillin and penicillin-G, and susceptible to the four other antibiotics. With the Autobac AIS, all isolates were interpreted to be susceptible to all the antibiotics except penicillin-G. All but one of the 34 isolates were interpreted to be resistant to penicillin-G with the Autobac AIS test. The remaining isolate was interpreted to be indeterminant. The Autobac AIS test was unsatisfactory for determining the susceptibility ofL. monocytogenes isolates to penicillin-G. The Autobac MIC results correlated well with the MIC results of the Sceptor system provided that the Autobac was programmed as though it were testing enterococci. The Autobac MIC reported penicillin-G MICs in units per milliliter and required the use of a conversion factor to obtain micrograms per milliliter, and did not allow for the testing of erythromycin. The Autobac MIC susceptibility category interpretations must not be used, as they were derived from an outdated susceptibility standard. The Autobac MIC test may be used if the limitations given above are observed.  相似文献

Abstract Of the 173 clinical strains of Vibrio cholerae O139 isolated from India, Bangladesh, and Thailand tested, six strains from India were resistant to tetracycline, ampicillin, chloramphenicol, kanamycin, and gentamicin. These six strains harbored a self-transmissible plasmid that mediated resistance to tetracycline, ampicillin, chloramphenicol, kanamycin, gentamicin, sulfamethoxazole, trimethoprim, and O/129. The multiple drug resistance plasmids were 200 kb in size and belonged to the incompatibility group C. Although a majority of the O139 strains (94.8%) were highly resistant to streptomycin, sulfamethoxazole, trimethoprim, and O/129, the tetracycline-susceptible strains so far tested were plasmid-negative. The data suggest the existence of two distinct multiple antimicrobial agent resistance (MAR) patterns in V. cholerae O139.  相似文献

A total of 79 Clostridium difficile strains from healthy young and elderly adults, elderly patients without gastrointestinal disease, elderly patients receiving antibiotics without gastrointestinal complications, and elderly patients with antibiotic-associated diarrhea or pseudomembranous colitis were tested for their susceptibilities to 24 antimicrobial agents. All of the 79 strains were inhibited by low concentrations of rifampicin, metronidazole, fusidic acid, vancomycin, ampicillin, and penicillin G. The strains were highly resistant to aminoglycosides, trimethoprim, sulfamethoxazole, nalidixic acid, and cycloserine and often resistant to neomycin, cefoxitin, and cefalexin. Wide variations in the susceptibility of C. difficile strains to erythromycin, clindamycin, lincomycin, chloramphenicol, and tetracycline were found. Strains resistant to erythromycin, clindamycin, and lincomycin were more frequently found among strains isolated from elderly adults than those isolated from young adults, with particularly high frequency among strains isolated from elderly patients receiving antibiotics. None of the 23 strains isolated from healthy young adults was resistant to chloramphenicol. All of the 14 strains resistant to erythromycin, clindamycin, lincomycin, and chloramphenicol were sensitive to tetracycline and all of the 15 strains resistant to erythromycin, clindamycin, lincomycin, and tetracycline were sensitive to chloramphenicol. Only one out of 19 tetracycline-resistant strains was highly toxigenic, whereas 42 (70%) of 60 sensitive strains were highly toxigenic.  相似文献

A total of 74 Streptococcus thermophilus isolates collected between 1948 and 2005 from different environments were investigated to assess erythromycin, clindamycin, streptomycin, gentamicin, tetracycline and ampicillin susceptibility by means of microdilution, Etest and disk diffusion methods. For this purpose a new S. thermophilus Susceptibility test Medium (SSM) was developed. This medium allowed a better identification of strains with atypical tetracycline resistance. The recipe is a mixed formulation of Iso-Sensitest medium (90% v/v) and M17 medium (10% v/v) supplemented with lactose (0.5% w/v). The overall agreement of the techniques was good with exception of tetracycline, for which Etest provided lower MICs than the microdilution method. Most strains were susceptible to all the antibiotics tested while a few erythromycin, tetracycline and streptomycin resistant strains were detected.  相似文献

A 4.8-kilobase-pair plasmid was isolated from the ruminal bacterium selenomonas ruminantium HD4 by using a sodium carbonate-EDTA washing buffer to improve cell lysis (R.G. Dean, S.A. Martin, and C. Carver, Lett. Appl. Microbiol. 8:45-48, 1989). This plasmid, designated pSR1, appears to be quite stable. No evidence of plasmid DNA was detected in S. ruminantium D or GA192. All three strains were tested for antibiotic resistance, and all were kanamycin resistant (MIC, 25 to 50 micrograms/ml). Only strain D was tetracycline resistant (MIC, 25 micrograms/ml), and all strains were sensitive to ampicillin (MIC, 1 microgram/ml). pSR1 was cloned into pBR322, and a map of pSR1 was constructed by using HindIII, ClAI, BamHI, and PvuII. Although ClaI, BamHI, ScaI, and EcoRV digested recombined plasmid isolated from Escherichia coli, these restriction endonucleases were not effective in digesting plasmid isolated directly from S. ruminantium HD4.  相似文献

The antimicrobial susceptibility of 30 clinical and 30 food Bacillus cereus isolates was determined. All isolates were susceptible to streptomycin, ciprofloxacin and gentamicin, 90 % of them to clindamycin and vancomycin, and 67 % to erythromycin. All isolates were resistant to amoxicillin with clavulanic acid, ampicillin, cefotaxime, ciprofloxacin, cloxacillin, cefotaxime with clavulanic acid and penicillin. The MIC values (determined by E-tests) were 48–256 mg/L for ampicillin, 0.19–1.5 mg/L for gentamicin, 0.125–1.0 mg/L for clindamycin, 0.047–4.0 mg/L for erythromycin and 1.5–16 mg/L for vancomycin. The MICs 4.6–18.75 g/L were observed for penicillin using the microdilution method. The presence of metallo-β-lactamases was detected by E-test for 100 % of strains. Nonhemolytic diarrheal enterotoxin (NHE) was produced by 98.3 % of strains, while 31.7 % of them produced hemolytic diarrheal enterotoxin (HBL). Clinical isolates produced 10 % more HBL than food isolates. The psychrotrophic strains isolated from food samples produced NHE at 6.5 °C in 73 % of cases.  相似文献
