متن کاملPotentially synergistic antimicrobial combinations with metronidazole against Bacteroides fragilis.
Synergy studies were performed with metronidazole in combination with clindamycin, rifampin, nalidixic acid, ticarcillin, erythromycin, and spectinomycin against Bacteroides fragilis strains. An agar dilution technique was used with two inoculum sizes (10(6) to 10(7) or 10(3) to 10(4) colony-forming units per ml). None of the drugs showed synergy with metronidazole against greater than 50% of t...

متن کاملBactericidal 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 کاملReciprocal antimicrobial synergism between Escherichia coli and Bacteroides fragilis in the presence of metronidazole.
We have studied the antimicrobial action of metronidazole against Bacteroides fragilis and Escherichia coli both in pure cultures and in combination. Concentrations of metronidazole above the minimal inhibitory concentration (MIC) produced a marked bactericidal effect on B fragilis at six hours. E coli however showed only a slight and transitory decrease in population when exposed to concentrat...
