Bactericidal activity of cefoperazone with CP-45,899 against large inocula of beta-lactamase-producing Haemophilus influenzae.
Bactericidal activity of cefoperazone, alone and in combination with the beta-lactamase inhibitor CP-45,899, was tested against inocula of 10(7) colony-forming units of beta-lactamase-producing isolates of Haemophilus influenzae type b per ml. Of 19 strains tested, 10 required greater than or equal to 64 microgram of cefoperazone per ml for killing, whereas no strains were killed by less than 6...
متن کاملBeta-lactamase activity in ampicillin-resistant Haemophilus influenzae.
The specific activity, substrate profile, response to inhibitors, inducibility, and cellular localization of the beta-lactamase produced by an ampicillin-resistant strain of Haemophilus influenzae type B were investigated. In these properties the enzyme resembles beta-lactamases produced by other gram-negative bacilli more closely than those produced by gram-positive organisms. It is quite simi...
متن کاملRapid penicillinase paper strip test for detection of beta-lactamase-producing Haemophilus influenzae and Neisseria gonorrhoeae.
A modified 1-min iodometric paper strip test for penicillinase activity was developed for detection of beta-lactamase-producing isolates of Haemophilus influenzae and Neisseria gonorrhoeae. The test is simple to perform and uses reagent-impregnated strips that may be stored for 1 year or more prior to use.
متن کاملMolecular epidemiology of ampicillin-resistant non-beta-lactamase-producing Haemophilus influenzae.
Resistance to ampicillin without beta-lactamase production is not a frequent occurrence among Haemophilus influenzae strains. This kind of resistance is encountered in unencapsulated strains isolated from bronchial secretions and ear, nose, and throat specimens and is exceptional in H. influenzae type b. We studied 29 of these strains from various areas in France and 2 reference strains. Strain...
متن کاملFailure to detect ampicillin-resistant, non-beta-lactamase-producing Haemophilus influenzae by standard disk susceptibility testing.
We questioned whether the apparent rarity of ampicillin-resistant, non-beta-lactamase-producing (NBLP) Haemophilus influenzae was due to failure of detection. We identified ampicillin-resistant and ampicillin-susceptible H. influenzae by the agar dilution technique, using 10(5)- and 10(3)-CFU inocula. We compared the disk susceptibility of 18 ampicillin-resistant NBLP strains, 13 ampicillin-res...
