Quantitative Studies of Sulfonamide Resistance
1. In vitro experiments were performed with E. coli, using a method designed for the quantitative study of various aspects of sulfonamide resistance. 2. Resistance was found to be a gradually developing process, and was demonstrated for all four drugs tested, sulfanilamide, sulfapyridine, sulfathiazole, and sulfadiazine. 3. It was shown that the degree of resistance developed was correlated wit...
متن کاملSulfonamide Resistance of Clostridium Sporogenes.
Bacteria which are sulfonamide-sensitive have been reported to be incapable of the rapid utilization of folic acid for inhibition reversal (Alimchandani and Sreenivasan, J. Bacteriol. 73:538, 1957; Krieg and Pelczar, J. Bacteriol. 80:242, 1960; Davis and Feingold, p. 343. In I. C. Gunsalus and R. Y. Stanier [ed.], The Bacteria, vol. 4, Academic Press, Inc., New York, 1962), presumably because o...
متن کاملSulfonamide-resistant Staphylococci: Correlation of in Vitro Sulfonamide-resistance with Sulfonamide Therapy.
A feature of sulfonamide therapy for bacterial infections is that species of bacteria differ in their resistance to the antibacterial action of the compounds. It is also recognized that strains of microorganisms within the same species display variations in susceptibility. A disconcerting and confusing factor associated with chemotherapy, which appears to be assuming increasing clinical signifi...
متن کاملMutations to sulfonamide resistance in Staphylococcus aureus.
T WO general hypotheses have been postulated to explain the origin of drug-resistant strains of bacteria. These hfiotheses are: (I) Resistant cells arise by mutation and are selected when grown in the presence of drugs. (2) Resistance is the result of a specific adaptation of bacteria in response to inhibiting agents. Resistance of Escherickia coli to bacteriophage (LTJRIA and DELBR~CK, 1943) r...
متن کاملPlasmid-mediated sulfonamide resistance in Neisseria meningitidis.
An 8.5-megadalton plasmid coding for sulfonamide resistance was found in a clinical isolate of Neisseria meningitidis, as demonstrated by plasmid elimination and transformation experiments. The plasmid complemented a mutation which determines the production of a thermosensitive dihydropteroate synthetase in Escherichia coli, thus suggesting that the mechanism of resistance involved a plasmid-en...
