Bactericidal activity of metronidazole against Bacteroides fragilis.
Metronidazole was found to be active against Bacteroides fragilis strains isolated from human lesions. The minimal inhibitory concentrations (MIC) were from 0.16 to 2.5 mug/ml and the minimal bactericidal concentrations (MBC) were from 0.16 to 2.5 mug/ml; usually the MIC and MBC figures were equivalent. These levels are easily attainable in the serum following normal therapeutic doses. The drug...
متن کاملBacteriostatic and bactericidal activities of moxifloxacin against Coxiella burnetii.
The in vitro activity of moxifloxacin against Coxiella burnetii was compared to those of pefloxacin, ofloxacin, and doxycycline. MICs of moxifloxacin ranged from 0.5 to 1 microg/ml for the Nine Mile, Priscilla, and Q212 strains. Moxifloxacin was not bactericidal against C. burnetii at 4 microg/ml.
متن کاملBacteriostatic and bactericidal activities of tigecycline against Coxiella burnetii and comparison with those of six other antibiotics.
The present article is a study of the in vitro susceptibility of eight Greek Coxiella burnetii isolates, derived from patients with acute Q fever, and two reference strains of Coxiella burnetii to tigecycline. The bacteriostatic activity of tigecycline was compared with those of six other antibiotics using a shell vial assay. The MICs of the examined antibiotics were as follows: tigecycline ran...
متن کاملBacteriostatic and bactericidal activities of selected beta-lactam antibiotics studied on agar plates.
A novel and time-saving method for assessing bactericidal activities of beta-lactam antibiotics on agar plates is described. Minimal inhibitory concentrations (MICs) were determined by the agar dilution method. A potent beta-lactamase solution was sprayed onto the plates to inactivate the antibiotic. After further incubation at 37 degrees C overnight, the minimal concentration at which no visib...
متن کاملBactericidal and bacteriostatic antibiotics and the Fenton reaction
In gammaproteobacteria ROS are not exclusively responsible for the activity of bactericidal compounds. Future research is required to determine whether the high-valence FeO2+ formed in the presence of bactericidal compounds enhances killing in addition to the direct inhibition of cell-wall assembly, protein synthesis or interference with DNA metabolism.
