In vivo studies have shown a major role for the alveolar macrophage in the killing of inhaled bacteria. This contrasted with earlier work which showed a preservation of phagocytic properties but a loss of bactericidal capacity when alveolar macrophages were studied in vitro. Recently, alveolar lining material (ALM) from rats has been shown to enhance the in vitro bactericidal capacity of alveol...
In the first paper of this series, a description was given of a cell-free extract, obtained from autolysates of a particular strain of a soil bacillus, which selectively inhibits the growth of all the Gram-positive microorganisms so far tested, and exerts on them a bactericidal effect in vitro. In the present study it is shown that the same agent protects white mice against infection with large...
PURPOSE The production of IgE increases in parasitic invasions, triggering local or systemic inflammatory response with the involvement of blood platelets. The aim of the study was to assess the number and morphological parameters of blood platelets as well as their phagocytic and bactericidal activity in patients with Trichinella spiralis infection. It is interesting to investigate the blood p...
Fibronectin is a high-molecular-weight glycoprotein found as a soluble dimer in plasma and as an insoluble multimer in tissues. It has been proposed that plasma fibronectin facilitates phagocytic removal of lysed cells and damaged tissues. Fibronectin binds avidly to several species of gram-positive bacteria and enhances staphylococcal and streptococcal attachment to cultured cells. Determinati...
In routine bacteriological laboratories the antibacterial activity of antibiotics is determined by in vitro testing, usually by disk-diffusion test. However, in vitro testing does not always reflect antibacterial efficiency of antibiotics in vivo. In this investigation, the urine samples obtained in a single oral dose pharmacokinetic study were examined for their bactericidal activity against a...
OBJECTIVE The purposes of this study were to examine the time-related changes in pH, oxidation-reduction potential, and concentration of chlorine of electrolyzed neutral water and to evaluate the bactericidal effect of electrolyzed neutral water against bacteria from infected root canals. STUDY DESIGN Various properties of electrolyzed neutral water--pH value, oxidation-reduction potential, a...
Bactericidal activity, historically assessed by in vitro tests which employ fixed drug concentrations, may also be evaluated in in vitro pharmacodynamic models in which in vivo pharmacokinetics and bacterial growth conditions can be simulated. However, systematic comparisons between the two methods are lacking. We evaluated the bactericidal activities of ceftazidime, at two different concentrat...
The ink of sea hares (Aplysia californica) contains escapin, an L-amino acid oxidase that metabolizes L-lysine, thereby producing a mixture that kills microbes and deters attacking predators. This secretion contains H2O2,ammonia, and an equilibrium mixture of "escapin intermediate product" (EIP-K) that includes alpha-keto-epsilon-aminocaproic acid and several other molecules. Components of the ...
Canthaxanthin (Cxn) is a fat-soluble red carotenoid pigment and is reported to be immunomodulatory. Broiler breeder hens were fed 0 ppm (Control), 6 ppm or 12 ppm Cxn to determine the effect of maternal dietary Cxn on chicks hatched from hens at 31 (Early), 45 (Mid) and 57 (Late) wk of age. Whole blood was obtained at 1 and 4 d of age to assess the number of cells able to engulf at least one Es...
This study aimed to evaluate the bactericidal rates of levofloxacin, gatifloxacin, penicillin, meropenem and rokitamycin against seven isolates of Bacillus anthracis clinically isolated between 1960 and 1970. After determination of MIC and MBC, time-kill experiments were carried out. Antimicrobial activity was evaluated at concentrations equal to 1 x, 2 x, 4 x and 8 x MIC after 0, 3, 6, 12 and ...
