چکیده
The present study evaluates the effectiveness of BACTEC NR-26A resin-containing medium in removing eight antibiotics from blood cultures. Peak concentrations achievable clinically were chosen. All antibiotics were prepared in fresh human blood samples. Blood samples were obtained prior to and at 15 min and 2, 24, 48, and 72 h after inoculation. Aztreonam, ceftriaxone, imipenem, teicoplanin, and ticarcillin were partially removed from blood cultures.

متن کاملEffectiveness of resins in neutralizing antibiotic activities in bactec plus Aerobic/F culture medium.
Incorporating resins in blood culture media can effectively reduce the activities of several antibiotics. It was shown that the activities of some generally used antibiotics decreased by 80 to 90% within 2 h in Bactec Plus Aerobic/F resin-containing culture medium. Bactec vials containing resins were still found to be positive for bacteria when antibiotics were present. The addition of beta-lac...
