In vitro activities of daptomycin and other antimicrobial agents against vancomycin-resistant gram-positive bacteria.
A comparative evaluation of daptomycin and eight other antimicrobial agents was performed by the agar dilution technique with 56 strains of vancomycin-resistant gram-positive bacteria, including Leuconostoc, Lactobacillus, and Pediococcus spp. Erythromycin, deptomycin, clindamycin, and gentamicin exhibited the greatest activities, whereas penicillin, ampicillin, and cefotaxime showed moderate a...
متن کاملMultiply antibiotic-resistant gram-negative bacteria.
There are 3 main groups of multiple resistant Gram-negative bacteria: Enterobacteriaceae with ESBL or AmpC enzymes – Escherichia coli, Klebsiella spp., Enterobacter cloacae, Citrobacter freundii, Morganella morganii, Serratia marcescens Acinetobacter spp. – resistant to aminoglycoside antibiotics as well as occasionally carbapenems and Colistin Pseudomonas spp. – resistant to combinations...
متن کاملInsights into Newer Antimicrobial Agents Against Gram-negative Bacteria
Currently, drug resistance, especially against cephalosporins and carbapenems, among gram-negative bacteria is an important challenge, which is further enhanced by the limited availability of drugs against these bugs. There are certain antibiotics (colistin, fosfomycin, temocillin, and rifampicin) that have been revived from the past to tackle the menace of superbugs, including members of Enter...
متن کاملIn vitro activities of cefepime alone and with amikacin against aminoglycoside-resistant gram-negative bacteria.
The in vitro activity of cefepime was compared with those of ceftazidime, cefotaxime, and cefpirome against aminoglycoside-resistant gram-negative bacteria. Cefepime was the most active cephalosporin, with a MIC for 90% of strains tested for all non-Pseudomonas aeruginosa species of less than or equal to 4 micrograms/ml. No cefepime resistance was encountered among members of the family Enterob...
متن کاملMotuporamine Derivatives as Antimicrobial Agents and Antibiotic Enhancers against Resistant Gram‐Negative Bacteria
Dihydromotuporamine C and its derivatives were evaluated for their in vitro antimicrobial activities and antibiotic enhancement properties against Gram-negative bacteria and clinical isolates. The mechanism of action of one of these derivatives, MOTU-N44, was investigated against Enterobacter aerogenes by using fluorescent dyes to evaluate outer-membrane depolarization and permeabilization. Its...
