Haemophilus influenzae: comparison of respiratory tract isolates with genitourinary tract isolates.
Haemophilus influenzae isolates recovered from the genitourinary (GU) tract were shown to have a significantly different biotype distribution compared with respiratory tract isolates. Biotype IV strains were recovered more commonly from the GU tract, and most strains were non-serotypable. Antibiotic-susceptible strains isolated from the GU tract more frequently harbored plasmids of less than 10...
متن کاملAntimicrobial susceptibilities of 1,730 Haemophilus influenzae respiratory tract isolates in Spain in 1998-1999.
A beta-lactamase prevalence of 23% was found among 1,730 Haemophilus influenzae isolates. Ampicillin susceptibility was 70%, and 12% of beta-lactamase-negative strains presented diminished susceptibility to ampicillin (BLNAR phenotype). Susceptibility of 90% was found for cefaclor and clarithromycin, whereas it was nearly 100% for cefotaxime, cefixime, azithromycin, and cefuroxime. Ciprofloxaci...
متن کاملAntimicrobial resistance in Haemophilus influenzae respiratory tract isolates in Korea: results of a nationwide acute respiratory infections surveillance.
Antimicrobial susceptibility patterns and beta-lactam resistance mechanisms of 544 Haemophilus influenzae isolates through the nationwide Acute Respiratory Infections Surveillance (ARIS) network in Korea during 2005 and 2006 were determined. Resistance to ampicillin was 58.5%, followed by resistance to cefuroxime (23.3%), clarithromycin (18.7%), cefaclor (17.0%), amoxicillin-clavulanate (10.4%)...
متن کاملSelective media for recovery of Haemophilus influenzae from specimens contaminated with upper respiratory tract microbial flora.
Isolation of Haemophilus influenzae from specimens contaminated with upper respiratory tract microbial flora was attempted with three different media: enriched chocolate agar, chocolate agar plus vancomycin, and chocolate agar plus vancomycin, bacitracin, and clindamycin. Recovery rates of H. influenzae from 852 pediatric pharyngeal swab specimens were 6.0, 28.5, and 59.9%, respectively.
متن کاملSerotypes of Haemophilus influenzae strains isolated from pediatric patients with respiratory tract infections.
Capsular serotypes of 122 respiratory Haemophilus influenzae strains were identified utilizing antigenic examinations (Slide Agglutination Test [SAT] and counter immuno-electrophoresis [CIE]), and PCR method. Results of the two methods were compared to find disagreement. Clinical and bacteriological characteristics of encapsulated strains were analyzed. By utilizing PCR assay, 3 (2.5%) serotype...
