Susceptibility of clinical isolates of bacteria to cefoxitin and cephalothin.
The susceptibility of 4,929 unselected clinical isolates of bacteria to cefoxitin and cephalothin was determined by the single-disk method, using a computer-associated electronic zone analyzer to obtain, record, and process measurements of sizes of zones of inhibition. Both cefoxitin and cephalothin were effective against most gram-positive strains, including Staphylococcus aureus, S. epidermid...
متن کاملCefoxitin and cephalothin: antimicrobial activity, human pharmacokinetics, and toxicology.
Cefoxitin, a semisynthetic cephamycin, has been compared with the widely used parenteral cephalosporin, cephalothin, in terms of antibacterial activity, human pharmacokinetics, and toxicity. For both compounds, minimal inhibitory concentrations were within the therapeutic range against the 156 gram-positive cocci tested (except group D streptococci), but cephalothin was 8 to 20 times more activ...
متن کاملIn vitro comparison of cefoxitin, cefamandole, cephalexin, and cephalothin.
The in vitro effect of cefoxitin, cefamandole, cephalexin, and cephalothin was tested against 645 strains of bacteria recently isolated from clinical sources. Against gram-positive organisms cephalothin and cefamandole were the most effective, generally being three- to fourfold more active than cephalexin or cefoxitin. Enterococci were not inhibited by less than 25 mug of any of the antibiotics...
متن کاملComparison of the in vitro activities of HR756 with cephalothin, cefoxitin, and cefamandole.
The in vitro activity of HR756, a new semisynthetic cephalosporin, was compared with the activities of cephalothin, cefoxitin, and cefamandole against 1,535 isolates of gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria. HR756 was less active than cephalothin and cefamandole and twofold more active than cefoxitin against Staphylococcus. All four of the antibiotics were inactive against the enterococcus g...
متن کاملTreatment of experimental Staphylococcus aureus abscesses: comparison of cefazolin, cephalothin, cefoxitin, and cefamandole.
Cefazolin (CZ), cephalothin (CF), cefoxitin (CX), and cefamandole (CM) were evaluated in therapy of Staphylococcus aureus infection produced in perforated table tennis balls placed intraperitoneally in rabbits. Four weeks after placement of two balls in each rabbit, a beta-lactamase producing strain of S. aureus was injected into one of the balls. Twenty-four hours later therapy was initiated w...
