The co-killing of penicillin sensitive and penicillin resistant bacteria at low concentrations of the antibiotic.
There are a number of reports that bacteria which have been made resistant to antibiotics may be rendered normally susceptible by contact with sensitive organisms, with extracts of such organisms, or with culture filtrates. Some of these reports are mutually contradictory in important respects, and the results have not been reproducible regularly by other workers. Voureka (1948) found that when...
متن کاملResistance Index of Penicillin-Resistant Bacteria to Various Physicochemical Agents
Widespread use of various antimicrobial agents resulted in the emergence of bacterial resistance. Mechanisms like direct efflux, formation, and sequestration of metals and drugs in complexes and antiporter pumps are some examples. This investigation aims to investigate the resistance pattern of penicillin-resistant bacterial strains to some physicochemical agents. Sensitivity/resistance pattern...
متن کاملNew Noncovalent Inhibitors of Penicillin-Binding Proteins from Penicillin-Resistant Bacteria
BACKGROUND Penicillin-binding proteins (PBPs) are well known and validated targets for antibacterial therapy. The most important clinically used inhibitors of PBPs β-lactams inhibit transpeptidase activity of PBPs by forming a covalent penicilloyl-enzyme complex that blocks the normal transpeptidation reaction; this finally results in bacterial death. In some resistant bacteria the resistance i...
متن کاملStudies on Penicillinase: III. The Effect of Antipenicillinase on Penicillin-resistant Organisms.
Numerous reports (Carpenter et al., 1944; Spink et al., 1945; Tainter, 1945) have been recorded in the literature describing increased resistance of bacteria to various chemotherapeutic substances, including antibiotics. Increased resistance of organisms to penicillin has been observed (Spink et al., 1945; Tainter, 1945; Demerec, 1945). In the latter case, attempts have been made to control inf...
متن کاملPenicillin-resistant Streptococcus Pneumoniae
Streptococcus pneumoniae is a major cause of pneumonia, meningitis, septicemia, acute otitis media, and other serious infections, severely affecting infants, young children, and the elderly. In the past, S. pneumoniae was uniformly susceptible to penicillin, which remained the drug of choice for serious infections. However, since the mid-1960s, resistance to penicillin, which was first reported...
