Susceptibility of dysgonic fermenter 2 to antimicrobial agents in vitro.
Dysgonic fermenter 2 (DF-2) is a fastidious, gram-negative organism well recognized as a cause of fulminant septicemia in patients without spleens or patients with alcoholic cirrhosis. In vitro antibiotic susceptibility testing of eight strains with a Schaedler broth dilution technique revealed DF-2 to be susceptible to all of the antibiotics tested except aztreonam. Previous reports that DF-2 ...
متن کاملSepticaemia and meningitis caused by dysgonic fermenter-2 (DF-2).
A patient developed dysgonic fermenter-2 (DF-2) septicaemia and meningitis after having been bitten by a dog. The pathogenic organism was isolated from the oral cavity of the dog, which, it is believed, is the first time that this has been done. The growth characteristics of the organism and the immunological response of the patient were studied. The isolation of the infecting agent from the do...
متن کاملEvidence for a feline reservoir for dysgonic fermenter 2 keratitis.
A 78-year-old female developed microbial keratitis from which corneal scrapings grew dysgonic fermenter 2. The infection initially responded poorly to a combination of topical antibiotics and corticosteroids but healed with intensive antibiotic therapy. There was no systemic predisposition to infection, and only feline exposure had occurred. Close association with a cat probably contaminated th...
متن کاملIn vitro susceptibility of Mycobacterium marinum to eight antimicrobial agents.
The in vitro susceptibilities of 16 Mycobacterium marinum strains to eight antimicrobial agents were determined by the agar dilution technique. The most active drugs were amikacin and kanamycin. Tetracycline, doxycycline, and minocycline were inhibitory, predominantly at concentrations slightly below the expected blood and tissue levels. Trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole and erythromycin demonstrat...
متن کاملIn vitro susceptibility of Trichomonas vaginalis to 50 antimicrobial agents.
We determined the susceptibilities of five strains of Trichomonas vaginalis, one of which was metronidazole resistant, to 50 antimicrobial agents. For the metronidazole-susceptible strains, the most active agents were metronidazole, tinidazole, mebendazole, furazolidone, and anisomycin. Against the resistant strain mebendazole, furazolidone, and anisomycin were the most active. Antifungal agent...
