In vitro activities of Ro 17-2301 and aztreonam compared with those of other new beta-lactam antibiotics against clinical isolates of Pseudomonas aeruginosa.

چکیده
The in vitro activities of Ro 17-2301 and aztreonam against 191 Pseudomonas aeruginosa isolates were compared with those of five other beta-lactam antibiotics. Both compounds showed activities comparable to that of ceftazidime and were bactericidal. They were as effective against gentamicin-or carbenicillin-resistant isolates as against susceptible ones.

Antimicrobial Susceptibility Pattern of Clinical Isolates of Pseudomonas Aeruginosa in a Pediatric Hospital
Background and Objective: Pseudomonas aeruginosa has become a frequent cause of nosocomial infections, particularly in intensive care units (ICUs). Many reports have documented high rates of resistance in this species to commonly-used broad-spectrum antibiotics. The aim of this study was to assess the in vitro activity of some a...

Compared with four beta-lactam antibiotics and amikacin, BRL 36650 and BMY-28142 were the most active against 509 Enterobacteriaceae, including cefotaxime-resistant isolates and resistant laboratory mutants. BRL 36650 was more active than aztreonam, ceftazidime, and BMY-28142 against Acinetobacter spp., Pseudomonas aeruginosa, and other Pseudomonas spp.; all strains were inhibited by 2 microgra...

ABSTRACT Background and Objectives: Pseudomonas aeruginosa is the most frequent opportunistic pathogen isolated from the sputum of patients with cystic fibrosis (CF). Resistance to β -lactam antibiotics may arise from over expression of the naturally occurring AmpC cephalosporinases or acquired extended-spectrum β-lactamases (ESBL). The aim of...
متن کاملIn vitro comparison of Pseudomonas aeruginosa isolates with various susceptibilities to aminoglycosides and ten beta-lactam antibiotics.
Susceptibilities of 98 clinical isolates of Pseudomonas aeruginosa, including 33 strains with known mechanisms of amikacin resistance, were tested by the agar dilution method against 10 beta-lactam drugs. Ceftazidime, imipenem, and cefsulodin had the greatest activity, regardless of the aminoglycoside susceptibilities. The strains which were highly resistant to amikacin appeared to be less susc...

Background: Multidrug resistance Pseudomonas aeruginosa (MDRPA) is most important issue in healthcare setting. It can secrete many virulence effector proteins via its secretion system type (T1SS-T6SS). They are using them as conductor for delivering the effector proteins outside to begins harmful effect on host cell increasing pathogenicity, competition against other microorganism and nutrient ...
