Efficacy of Novel Combinations of Antibiotics against Multidrug-Resistant-New Delhi Metallo-Beta-Lactamase-Producing Strains of Enterobacterales

The emergence of multidrug-resistance (MDR)—New Delhi metallo-beta-lactamase (NDM)-producing microorganisms—has become a serious concern for treating such infections. Therefore, we investigated the effective antimicrobial combinations against multidrug-resistant New metallo-beta-lactamase-producing strains Enterobacterales. tests were carried out using 2D(two-dimensional) checkerboard method. Of 7 antimicrobials, i.e., doripenem (DRP), streptomycin (STR), cefoxitin (FOX), imipenem (IPM), cefotaxime (CTX), meropenem (MER), and gentamicin (GEN), 19 different used, them, three showed synergistic effects 31 highly drug-resistant carrying blaNDM other associated resistance markers. Changes in minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) values interpreted test fractional index (FIC Index). FIC Index these found range 0.1562 to 0.5, which shows synergy, whereas no synergism was observed remaining combinations. We conclude that antibiotic can be analyzed vivo pharmacological studies establish an therapeutic approach.
