Ampicillin susceptibility and ampicillin-induced killing rate of Escherichia coli.
The killing rate induced by ampicillin was determined in 20 strains of Escherichia coli. The apparent generation rate constant for each E. coli showed a characteristic concentration-dependent course. This course can be mathematically described and is determined by four parameters. Three of these parameters determine the speed of the process, and the fourth parameter determines a minimal concent...
متن کاملColicin tolerance induced by ampicillin or mutation to ampicillin resistance in a strain of Escherichia coli K-12.
A mutant (G11el) of Escherichia coli selected as being resistant to ampicillin and showing signs of an envelope defect was also found to be tolerant to colicins E2 and E3. The colicin tolerance of G11el could be partially repressed by Mg(2+) ions. Transition from tolerance to sensitivity and vice versa by shifting the concentration of Mg(2+) in the growth medium required several generations. Th...
متن کاملCorrelation of in vitro susceptibility results for amoxicillin-clavulanate and ampicillin-sulbactam tested against Escherichia coli.
The results of amoxicillin-clavulanate (AUG) and ampicillin-sulbactam (A/S) susceptibility testing by three different susceptibility testing methods, the MicroScan, Etest, and Kirby-Bauer methods, for 61 consecutive isolates of ampicillin-resistant Escherichia coli from different patients were compared. There was poor correlation of results for the two agents, the most and least marked discrepa...
متن کاملThe Effects of Ampicillin on the Growth of Escherichia coli
Khadija Lawrence and Michelle Anthony North Carolina State University, Department of Microbiology, 4510 Thomas Hall, Campus Box 7615 Raleigh, NC 27695 Abstract Escherichia coli is a Gram-negative, rod-shaped bacterium that normally inhabits the intestines of humans and animals. Not all strains of E. coli are pathogenic, but ones that are contribute to one of the leading causes of foodborne ill...
متن کاملRelatedness of Escherichia coli strains with different susceptibility phenotypes isolated from swine feces during ampicillin treatment.
The aim of this study was to examine the dynamics of the development of resistance in fecal Escherichia coli populations during treatment with ampicillin for 7 days in pigs. Before treatment, only 6% of the isolates were ampicillin resistant, whereas more than 90% of the isolates were resistant after days 4 and 7 of treatment. Ampicillin-resistant E. coli isolates were mainly multiresistant, an...
