The antimicrobial effectiveness of zinc ascorbate in the treatment of acne vulgaris, either alone or in combination w...
متن کاملDetermination of antibiotic susceptibility and Minimum Inhibitory Concentration (MIC) of the Propionibacterium acnes to the prevalent antibiotics in the treatment of Acne vulgaris
ABSTRACTPropionibacterium acnes is propounded as one of the significant factors in occurrence of acne. Today, due to development of the antibiotic resistance, most of the acne treatments are faced with failure. In order to determine the antibiotic resistance of the P.acnes strains isolated from the patients with acne, this research has been carried out. 70 samples collected using microbial cult...
متن کاملSusceptibility of Propionibacterium acnes clinical isolates to 22 antimicrobial agents.
Susceptibilities of 104 Propionibacterium acnes isolates to each of 22 antimicrobial agents was evaluated by broth microdilution. These isolates were susceptible to all of the test agents except metronidazole. N-Formimidoyl thienamycin, a penem coded Sch 29482, and penicillin ranked first, second, and third, respectively, in activity and were significantly more active than other penicillins, ce...
متن کاملPropionibacterium acnes.
Propionibacterium acnes, a common skin organism, is most notably recognized for its role in acne vulgaris.

Propionibact...
متن کاملPropionibacterium acnes Susceptibility and Correlation with Hemolytic Phenotype
BACKGROUND Many studies have noted an increase in the number of recognized cases of invasive infections due to Propionibacterium acnes, especially after shoulder replacement surgery. The increase in the number of recognized cases of P. acnes, a nonspore-forming, anaerobic, Gram-positive organism, appears due to both an increase in the number of shoulder operations being performed and more speci...
