Activity of quinupristin/dalfopristin against extracellular and intracellular Staphylococcus aureus with various resistance phenotypes.
OBJECTIVES Treatment of chronic or recurrent Staphylococcus aureus infections may require using antibiotics with activity against intracellular multiresistant organisms. Quinupristin/dalfopristin (3:7) has been examined in this context. METHODS Quinupristin and dalfopristin were used separately or mixed. Strains used were: (i) methicillin-susceptible and -resistant S. aureus (MSSA and MRSA); ...
متن کاملActivity of fusidic acid against extracellular and intracellular Staphylococcus aureus: influence of pH and comparison with linezolid and clindamycin.
BACKGROUND Emergence of multidrug-resistant Staphylococcus aureus has triggered a reassessment of fusidic acid (CEM-102, sodium fusidate). METHODS Fusidic acid was examined for (1) activity against recent methicillin-resistant S. aureus (MRSA) isolates; (2) modulation of activity by acidic pH; and (3) accumulation by phagocytic cells and intracellular activity against methicillin-susceptible ...
متن کاملIn vitro activity of nemonoxacin (TG-873870), a novel non-fluorinated quinolone, against clinical isolates of Staphylococcus aureus, enterococci and Streptococcus pneumoniae with various resistance phenotypes in Taiwan.
OBJECTIVES The aim of this study was to assess the in vitro activities of nemonoxacin against Gram-positive cocci with various resistance phenotypes. METHODS MICs of nemonoxacin were determined for 798 recently collected (2005-07) and non-duplicate isolates of Gram-positive cocci by the agar dilution method. These isolates included: methicillin-susceptible Staphylococcus aureus (MSSA; n = 100...

متن کاملAntibacterial activity of propolis against Staphylococcus aureus.
In the present study, antimicrobial activity of the ethanolic extract of propolis (EEP), collected at different periods (June, August, and October-November) from various regions (Taipei, Mingchien, and Fanglia) in Taiwan, against Staphylococcus aureus was investigated. The effects of cell age, incubation temperature, and pH in response to EEP were also investigated. Depending on concentration, ...
