Bactericidal effects of antibiotics on slowly growing and nongrowing bacteria.
Antimicrobial agents are most often tested against bacteria in the log phase of multiplication to produce the maximum bactericidal effect. In an infection, bacteria may multiply less optimally. We examined the effects of several classes of antimicrobial agents to determine their actions on gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria during nongrowing and slowly growing phases. Only ciprofloxacin a...
متن کاملEvaluation of the bactericidal activity of beta-lactam antibiotics on slowly growing bacteria cultured in the chemostat.
The bactericidal activity of 23 beta-lactam antibiotics was compared in slowly growing bacteria cultured in a chemostat. In an attempt to mimic possible in vivo conditions, slowly growing cultures were produced by limitation of iron, glucose, phosphate, or magnesium. Only select antibiotics remained effectively bactericidal against slowly growing cells. For these compounds, the rate of antibiot...
متن کاملEvaluation of bactericidal activity of Hannon honey on slowly growing bacteria in the chemostat
There is renewed interest in the therapeutic use of honey, including use in the treatment of infected wounds and burn patients. In this study, we have assessed the antibacterial activity of Libyan floral Hannon honey on Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus, both known to infect wounds. The effects of four concentrations (5%-30%) of honey were compared with that of four antibiotics (ampici...
متن کاملmorphological and bactericidal effects of different antibiotics on helicobacter pylori
conclusions: despite the good in vitro bactericidal effect of amoxicillin on spiral forms of h. pylori, this antibiotic has little effect on induced coccoids that may develop after the inappropriate in vivo antibacterial treatment. hence, for successful therapy, it is essential not only to eradicate the spiral forms, but to eliminate the viable coccoids. background: helicobacter pylori (h. pylo...
