Effect of medium, pH, and inoculum size on activity of ceftizoxime and Sch-34343 against anaerobic bacteria.
نویسندگان
چکیده
The effect of two media, three pH values, and three inoculum densities on the activity of ceftizoxime and Sch-34343 against anaerobic bacteria was evaluated. The activities of both antimicrobial agents were affected by medium composition, especially against Bacteroides fragilis. Changes in pH and inoculum size affected only the activity of ceftizoxime against anaerobic bacteria.

In vitro activity of Sch 34343 against enterococci and other gram-positive bacteria.
The in vitro activity of Sch 34343, a new penem antibiotic, was compared with those of imipenem, vancomycin, and eight other antibiotics against gram-positive bacteria. Ninety percent of methicillin-susceptible Staphylococcus aureus and penicillin-susceptible streptococcal isolates were inhibited by Sch 34343 at concentrations of less than or equal to 0.125 micrograms/ml. Listeria monocytogenes...

The in vitro activity of ciprofloxacin against 30 Bacteroides fragilis group, 30 Clostridium, and 30 Peptococcaceae strains was determined by the agar dilution method in two different culture media at three pH and in three inoculum densities. In Wilkins-Chalgren agar the MICs for 90% of the strains were 0.12 micrograms/ml for B. fragilis, 0.5 micrograms/ml for Clostridium spp., and 2 micrograms...
