Comparison between agar and broth minimum inhibitory concentrations of cefamandole, Cefoxitin, and cefuroxime.
The in vitro susceptibility to cefamandole, cefoxitin, and cefuroxime of clinical isolates of Streptococcus faecalis, Klebsiella, and indole-positive Proteus was assayed using minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) determinations in broth and on solid media. It could be demonstrated that the agar dilution MICs obtained when S. faecalis was tested against cefuroxime and when indole-positive Prot...
متن کاملIn vitro comparison of cefoxitin, cefamandole, cephalexin, and cephalothin.
The in vitro effect of cefoxitin, cefamandole, cephalexin, and cephalothin was tested against 645 strains of bacteria recently isolated from clinical sources. Against gram-positive organisms cephalothin and cefamandole were the most effective, generally being three- to fourfold more active than cephalexin or cefoxitin. Enterococci were not inhibited by less than 25 mug of any of the antibiotics...
متن کاملIn vitro evaluation of cefoxitin and cefamandole.
Cefoxitin and cefamandole were evaluated in vitro against 263 organisms. Studies were performed in Mueller-Hinton and nutrient broth and agar employing inoculum sizes of 10(6) and 10(8) organisms per ml. At obtainable serum levels both antibiotics were bactericidal for nearly all strains of Escherichia coli, Klebsiella, Proteus mirabilis, and Staphylococcus aureus but were inactive against Pseu...
متن کاملComparative susceptibility of penicillinase-positive and -negative Neisseria gonorrhoeae to 30 antibiotics.
The minimal inhibitory concentrations of 30 antibiotics were determined by the agar dilution method for 17 penicillinase-positive and 50 penicillinase-negative strains of Neisseria gonorrhoeae. The latter included 42 strains that were penicillin susceptible (pen S) (minimal inhibitory concentration, <0.125 mug/ml) and 8 strains with intermediate resistance to penicillin (pen I; minimal inhibito...
متن کاملEvaluation of cycloserine-cefoxitin-fructose agar and cycloserine-cefoxitin-fructose broth for recovery of Clostridium difficile from environmental sites.
Cycloserine-cefoxitin-fructose agar (CCFA) and cycloserine-cefoxitin-fructose broth (CCFB) containing either 500 or 250 micrograms of cycloserine per ml were compared for efficacy in the isolation of Clostridium difficile from hospital ward environmental sites. A RODAC imprint technique was used to inoculate prereduced CCFA. Moistened swabs were used to inoculate prereduced CCFB from environmen...
