Antipneumococcal activity of ertapenem (MK-0826) compared to those of other agents.
The activities of ertapenem (MK-0826) and eight other agents against a range of penicillin-susceptible and -resistant pneumococci were tested by determination of MICs by the microdilution method and by the time-kill methodology. For 125 penicillin-susceptible, 74 penicillin-intermediate, and 86 penicillin-resistant pneumococci, the MICs at which 50% of isolates are inhibited (MIC(50)s) and MIC(...
متن کاملAntipneumococcal and antistaphylococcal activities of ranbezolid (RBX 7644), a new oxazolidinone, compared to those of other agents.
For 260 pneumococcal and 266 staphylococcal strains, ranbezolid MICs ranged from < or =0.06 to 4 micro g/ml. The MICs for pneumococci were similar irrespective of the strains' beta-lactam, macrolide, or quinolone susceptibilities, and ranbezolid MICs for coagulase-negative staphylococci were lower than those for Staphylococcus aureus. Ranbezolid was bacteriostatic against pneumococci. Ranbezoli...
متن کاملAntipneumococcal activity of DW-224a, a new quinolone, compared to those of eight other agents.
DW-224a is a new broad-spectrum quinolone with excellent antipneumococcal activity. Agar dilution MIC was used to test the activity of DW-224a compared to those of penicillin, ciprofloxacin, levofloxacin, gatifloxacin, moxifloxacin, gemifloxacin, amoxicillin-clavulanate, cefuroxime, and azithromycin against 353 quinolone-susceptible pneumococci. The MICs of 29 quinolone-resistant pneumococci wi...
متن کاملAntipneumococcal activity of BMS 284756 compared to those of six other agents.
Antipneumococcal activity of BMS 284756 was compared to those of six agents by MIC and time-kill methodologies. BMS 284756 had the lowest MICs compared to those of ciprofloxacin, levofloxacin, and moxifloxacin against quinolone-susceptible (< or =0.016 to 0.06 microg/ml) and quinolone-resistant (0.03 to 1 microg/ml) pneumococci. BMS 284756 was bactericidal against 11 of 12 strains at two times ...
متن کاملAntipneumococcal activity of dalbavancin compared to other agents.
Against 307 pneumococci of various resistotypes, dalbavancin MICs were 0.008 to 0.125 microg/ml. All strains were susceptible to vancomycin, teicoplanin, linezolid, and quinupristin-dalfopristin. Dalbavancin at 2x MIC was bactericidal against all 10 pneumococci tested after 24 h. Vancomycin and teicoplanin killed 10 and 8 strains, respectively, at 2x MIC after 24 h.
