In Vitro Susceptibility Testing of Bedaquiline against Mycobacterium avium Complex.
We performed bedaquiline broth microdilution susceptibility testing using Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute (CLSI) guidelines on 103 respiratory isolates of Mycobacterium avium complex (MAC), including multidrug-resistant isolates. Approximately 90% of isolates had bedaquiline MICs of ≤0.008 μg/ml, and 102/103 isolates had MICs of ≤0.015 μg/ml. Bedaquiline has excellent potential for ...
متن کاملIn vitro Susceptibility of Fungal Isolates of Keratomycosis to Antiseptic Agents
Background: Fungal corneal ulcer is the most dangerous and challenging type of infective keratitis. Since most of the ophthalmic antifungal drops are scarce and expensive in developing countries, attempts have been made to study fungicidal property of some readily available antiseptic agents as a substitute. Povidone iodine (PI) and chlorhexidine gluconate (CHx) has been postulated to be effe...
متن کاملDetermination of in vitro susceptibility of Mycobacterium tuberculosis to cephalosporins by radiometric and conventional methods.
Among eight cephalosporins and cephamycins tested in preliminary in vitro screening against Mycobacterium tuberculosis, the most promising for further study was found to be ceforanide, followed by ceftizoxime, cephapirin, and cefotaxime. Moxalactam, cefoxitin, cefamandole, and cephalothin were found to be not active enough against M. tuberculosis to be considered for further in vitro studies. T...
متن کاملDetermination of ansamycin MICs for Mycobacterium avium complex in liquid medium by radiometric and conventional methods.
A radiometric method to determine the MIC of ansamycin (LM427) for Mycobacterium avium complex clinical isolates has been developed. It is based on a comparison of the conventional growth curve determination and the radiometric detection of growth (growth index) in the same liquid medium (7H12 broth). This new method requires less time and labor than does a conventional determination of MIC in ...
متن کاملAntimycobacterial activity of 1-deaza-7,8-dihydropteridine derivatives against Mycobacterium tuberculosis and Mycobacterium avium complex in vitro.
Twenty-five 1-deaza-7,8-dihydropteridine derivatives were screened for antimycobacterial activity against Mycobacterium tuberculosis strain H37Ra and three Mycobacterium avium clinical isolates (serovar 1, 4 or 6). Antibacterial activity was determined with a colorimetric microdilution broth assay. Seventeen of the compounds inhibited growth in the range >1.28 to <or=12.8 mg/L against one or mo...
