In vitro susceptibility of Acinetobacter species to various antimicrobial agents.
The in vitro activity of 18 antimicrobial agents against 40 clinical isolates each of Acinetobacter calcoaceticus subsp. anitratum and Acinetobacter lwoffi was studied. Most of the newer 4-quinolone derivatives were extremely active against these organisms. Newer beta-lactam agents, such as cefpirome, BMY 28142, and BRL 36650, were also extremely active, inhibiting all strains at clinically ach...
متن کاملVentilator Associated Pneumonia by Acinetobacter baumannii And antimicrobial susceptibility pattern
Background: Ventilator Associated Pneumonia (VAP) is one of the serious complications of ventilator support occurring in ICUs. The aim of this study was to determine the susceptibility pattern of Acinetobacter baumannii (A. baumannii) isolated from patients with VAP by two methods: disk diffusion and E. test. Methods: This descriptive-cross sectional study was conducted in the four ICUs of Ras...
متن کاملAntimicrobial susceptibility of Campylobacter species.
Thermophilic Campylobacter spp. are important causative agents of diarrhoeal disease in humans. Antimicrobial-resistant Campylobacter spp. that originate from poultry can enter the human food chain and result in resistant Campylobacter spp. in human infections. Campylobacter spp. were isolated from chicken faeces collected from chicken farms near Harare. Human isolates of Campylobacter spp. wer...

متن کاملRole of integrons in antimicrobial susceptibility patterns of Acinetobacter baumannii.
The relationship between the presence and types of integrons and the antimicrobial susceptibility patterns of Acinetobacter baumannii was investigated. A total of 134 non-duplicated A. baumannii isolates, 54.5% (n=73) of which were subsequently found to carry class 1 integrons, were collected from a regional hospital in Taiwan between March and September 2007. Only two types of gene cassette ar...
