Lack of antimicrobial bactericidal activity in Mycobacterium abscessus.
Antibiotic therapy of infections caused by the emerging pathogen Mycobacterium abscessus is challenging due to the organism's natural resistance toward most clinically available antimicrobials. We investigated the bactericidal activity of antibiotics commonly administered in M. abscessus infections in order to better understand the poor therapeutic outcome. Time-kill curves were generated for c...
متن کاملIn Vitro Antimicrobial Susceptibility of Mycobacterium abscessus in Korea
Mycobacterium abscessus is the second most common etiology of pulmonary disease caused by nontuberculous mycobacteria in Korea. Although antimicrobial susceptibility tests are important for appropriate patient management in M. abscessus lung disease, the tests have never been investigated in Korea. Seventy-four isolates of M. abscessus recovered from patient respiratory samples were tested agai...

In vivo evaluation of antibiotic activity against Mycobacterium abscessus.
BACKGROUND The prognosis of Mycobacterium abscessus infections is poor due to the lack of effective drug treatment. The objective of this study was to set up an animal model suitable to test antibiotic activity against M. abscessus. METHODS The following mouse strains were evaluated: Swiss, BALB/c, C57BL/6, nude, beige, A/J, and GKO. Antibiotic activity was tested for clarithromycin, amikacin...
متن کاملBactericidal activity of antimicrobial agents for treponemes.
Bactericidal studies of antibiotics on treponemes have been limited to a small group of organisms and to a limited number of antimicrobial agents. Eagle and Musselman (1944) determined the sensitivity in vitro of the non-virulent Reiter treponeme to penicillin G. Penicillin concentrations of between 01 and 0-25 units/ml. medium killed 90 to 99 per cent. of the spirochaetes in 8 to 12 hrs. Penic...
