In vitro susceptibilities of Chlamydia pneumoniae (Chlamydia sp. strain TWAR).
The in vitro susceptibilities of two clinical isolates of Chlamydia pneumoniae from Brooklyn, N.Y., were determined for tetracycline, erythromycin, sulfamethoxazole, ciprofloxacin, and three new macrolides--azithromycin, clarithromycin, and roxithromycin. Clarithromycin was the most active drug tested, followed by the other macrolides, tetracycline, and ciprofloxacin.
متن کاملChlamydia pneumoniae, strain TWAR.
A new third species of Chiamydia, called C pneumoniae, has been established for the TWAR organism. We first thought that the new organism belonged to the C psittaci species because it was clearly not a C trachomatis.2’8 Subsequent studies showed that the organism was unique from both currently recognized species.8”#{176}”7”9 Justification for establishing a new species rests primarily on studie...
متن کاملIn vitro drug susceptibility of Chlamydia sp. strain TWAR.
The in vitro susceptibilities of eight Chlamydia sp. strain TWAR isolates were tested against tetracycline, erythromycin, penicillin, ampicillin, sulfisoxazole, and a new drug, trospectomycin. The ranges of inhibitory concentrations of these antimicrobial agents, except for sulfonamide, were similar to those for Chlamydia trachomatis. Sulfisoxazole was not inhibitory at the highest nontoxic con...
متن کاملA rapid method for staining inclusions of Chlamydia psittaci and Chlamydia trachomatis.
A new staining method was developed for the detection of inclusions of Chlamydia psittaci and Chlamydia trachomatis inclusions in cell cultures. Using a combination of methyl green and neutral red stains and washing at pH 5.0, inclusions were stained red while cell cytoplasm was pale pink and cell nuclei were pale green. The method was significantly better than Giemsa staining and comparable to...
متن کاملImmuno-gold Labelling of Chlamydia trachomatis
Background Chlamydia trachomatis is considered as an important cause of preventable sexually transmitted diseases worldwide. It is known to be of an obligate intracellular nature and enters its target cells via an endocytic process. As major outer membrane protein (MOMP) is one of the main candidates for the attachment and entry of chlamydia to the host cells we have tried to label the epitopes...
