متن کاملIn vitro activities of meropenem, PD 127391, PD 131628, ceftazidime, chloramphenicol, co-trimoxazole, and ciprofloxacin against Pseudomonas cepacia.
In a study of 110 Pseudomonas cepacia isolates from patients without cystic fibrosis, the in vitro potencies of three new compounds, meropenem, PD 127391, and PD 131628, were comparable to those of ceftazidime and ciprofloxacin and exceeded those of chloramphenicol and co-trimoxazole. The MICs of ceftazidime, ciprofloxacin, meropenem, and the PD compounds for 90% of strains tested were < or = 4...
