resistant to both gentamicin and streptomycin. Aminoglycosides have no therapeutic benefit in infections involving such strains, and unnecessarily expose patients to possible ototoxic or nephrotoxic side effects. A further 28% of the isolates were highly resistant to either gentamicin or streptomycin, emphasising the value of testing both of these compounds in determining appropriate treatment....
The most common cause of ampicillin resistance in Haemophilus influenzae type b is production of TEM-1 beta-lactamase; however, a novel enzyme with a similar substrate profile but a quite different isoelectric point has also been described. This beta-lactamase, designated ROB-1, has not been found previously in any other organism. In a survey of 46 ampicillin-resistant H. influenzae type b isol...
Using a rapid screening method, we investigated the prevalence of fecal carriage of antimicrobial drug-resistant Escherichia coli in 3,174 healthy children from 4 urban settings in Peru and Bolivia. High resistance rates were observed for ampicillin (95%), trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole (94%), tetracycline (93%), streptomycin (82%), and chloramphenicol (70%). Lower resistance rates were observed...
The average copy number, the level of ampicillin resistance conferred by one plasmid, and the degree of plasmid multimerization were determined for several ColE1-like and pBR322-like plasmids. From the results obtained, the variance of the units of partition corresponding to each plasmid studied was calculated. Experimentally determined plasmid stability was compared with that calculated using ...
Enterococci are among the common organisms associated with hospital-acquired infections. We examined in vitro activities of different antibiotics to 103 enterococcal isolates. Minimal inhibitory concentrations (MICs) of penicillin G, ampicillin, gentamicin, ciprofloxacin, ofloxacin, levofloxacin, grepafloxacin, trovafloxacin and gemifloxacin were determined by broth microdilution testing method...
OBJECTIVES To investigate the presumed acquisition of ampicillin resistance by an Escherichia coli strain residing in the gut of an infant. METHODS E. coli strains were quantified in faecal samples obtained at regular intervals from an infant followed from birth to 12 months of age and their resistance profiles were determined. beta-Lactamases were identified by isoelectric focusing and genes...
Early targeted antimicrobial therapy helps decrease costs and prevents the spread of antimicrobial resistance, including in Escherichia coli, the most frequent Gram-negative bacterium that causes sepsis. Therefore, rapid susceptibility testing represents the major prerequisite for knowledge-based successful antimicrobial treatment. To accelerate testing for antibiotic susceptibility, we have de...
Antimicrobial susceptibility patterns and beta-lactam resistance mechanisms of 544 Haemophilus influenzae isolates through the nationwide Acute Respiratory Infections Surveillance (ARIS) network in Korea during 2005 and 2006 were determined. Resistance to ampicillin was 58.5%, followed by resistance to cefuroxime (23.3%), clarithromycin (18.7%), cefaclor (17.0%), amoxicillin-clavulanate (10.4%)...
From February 1981 to December 1983, 225 strains were isolated from pediatric patients infected with Haemophilus influenzae. Forty-one strains were found to be resistant to ampicillin, chloramphenicol, and other antibiotics. They were isolated from 20 patients with invasive diseases (meningitis, 16; bacteremia, 4) and 21 with noninvasive diseases (otitis media, 19; conjunctivitis, 2). During th...
Patients with uncomplicated gonorrhoea were treated with a single dose of either ampicillin 3 g orally or procaine penicillin 2.4 MIU by injection, both with probenecid 1 g orally. The proportion of faecal Escherichia coli resistant to ampicillin before and a week after treatment was assessed. Of 55 patients treated with ampicillin who initially possessed sensitive flora, 25 (45.5%) became colo...
