Emergence of trimethoprim resistance in fecal flora.
نویسندگان
چکیده
The emergence of trimethoprim (TMP) resistance in fecal flora was compared in patients with urinary tract infection treated with TMP or TMP-sulfamethoxazole. No significant differences were found in the occurrence of TMP-resistant fecal aerobic bacteria in the two treatment groups before and after treatment.

Ciprofloxacin dosage and emergence of resistance in human commensal bacteria.
BACKGROUND Although optimization of the fluoroquinolone dosage increases the efficacy of this class of drugs against bacterial infections, its impact on the emergence of resistance in commensal bacteria is unknown. METHODS Six different 14-day dosages of oral ciprofloxacin were randomly assigned to 48 healthy volunteers. Individual pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic parameters combining anti...
متن کاملIdentification of β-Lactamase-Negative-Ampicillin Resistance Strains of Escherichia coli in 150 Isolates from Urinary Tract Infection and Fecal Flora in Kerman
β-lactamases are enzymes which inactivate the β-lactam antibacterial agents and are one of the major causes of resistance against these drugs. Recently there are reports on the isolation of bacteria which does not produce β-lactamase, but are resistant to penicillins. In the present study, β-laclamase production was determined using iodometric method on 150 ampicillin resistance Escherichia col...
متن کاملCharacterization of antimicrobial resistance patterns and integrons in human fecal Escherichia coli in Taiwan.
Two hundred and twenty-five fecal strains of Escherichia coli isolated from 109 non-hospitalized adults in 2006 were investigated for susceptibility to antibiotics and for the presence of integrons. High resistance rates in fecal strains of E. coli were observed for streptomycin (52.0%), ampicillin (50.2%), piperacillin (50.2%), trimethoprim/sulfamethoxazole (47.6%) and chloramphenicol (33.8%)....
متن کاملAntimicrobial Resistance in Commensal Flora of Pig Farmers
We assessed the quantitative contribution of pig farming to antimicrobial resistance in the commensal flora of pig farmers by comparing 113 healthy pig farmers from the major French porcine production areas to 113 nonfarmers, each matched for sex, age, and county of residence. All reported that they had not taken antiimicrobial agents within the previous month. Throat, nasal, and fecal swabs we...
متن کاملClonal Diversity in Multi Drug Resistant (MDR) Enterococci Isolated from Fecal Normal Flora
Enterococci are Gram positive and catalase- negative cocci that are found in the gastrointestinal tract of mammals and birds, and are readily isolated from soil, surface and waters. The aim of this study was to discriminate between Enterococcus isolates based on repetitive element sequence based –PCR (Rep-PCR) with the BOXA2R primer and their antibiotics profile. Enterococci isolates were obtai...
