چکیده
A systematic evaluation of the susceptibility of all Chlamydia trachomatis urogenital serovars (D through K) to levofloxacin, erythromycin, doxycycline, clarithromycin, and azithromycin was performed. All C. trachomatis serovars had comparable susceptibilities with respect to the various antimicrobials tested, thus confirming the homogeneous data so far obtained regarding the susceptibility of C. trachomatis to antimicrobial agents.

Serovar distribution of urogenital Chlamydia trachomatis strains
The distribution of serovars in 208 Chlamydia trachomatis strains of urogenital origin isolated from 185 patients attending a sexually transmitted disease clinic in Rotterdam, The Netherlands, was assessed. Typing by monoclonal antisera using a dot enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) showed that the most common serovars were E (found in 45 strains), F (39), D (34), and K (28). Other serov...
متن کاملIn vitro and in vivo activities of sparfloxacin, other quinolones, and tetracyclines against Chlamydia trachomatis.
Sparfloxacin was more potent than other quinolones (tosufloxacin, lomefloxacin, ciprofloxacin, ofloxacin, fleroxacin, enoxacin, and norfloxacin) and as potent as minocycline and doxycycline in activity against Chlamydia trachomatis in vitro and in vivo. Sparfloxacin was more bactericidal than minocycline against C. trachomatis D/UW-3/Cx.
متن کاملIn vitro activities of T-3262, NY-198, fleroxacin (AM-833; RO 23-6240), and other new quinolone agents against clinically isolated Chlamydia trachomatis strains.
The in vitro activities of three newly developed quinolone drugs (T-3262, NY-198, and fleroxacin [AM-833; RO 23-6240]) against 10 strains of clinically isolated Chlamydia trachomatis were assessed and compared with those of other quinolones and minocycline. T-3262 (MIC for 90% of isolates tested, 0.1 microgram/ml) was the most active of the quinolones. The NY-198 and fleroxacin MICs for 90% of ...
متن کاملChlamydia trachomatis serovars among strains isolated from members of rural indigenous communities and urban populations in Australia.
We genotyped Chlamydia trachomatis strains from 45 women or men living in either a rural indigenous community or in urban heterosexual communities. We found six different C. trachomatis serovars: E (n = 22; 48.9%), F (n = 10; 22.2%), J/Ja (n = 5; 11.1%), D/Da (n = 4; 8.9%), G (n = 3; 6.7%), and K (n = 1; 2.2%). The distribution of C. trachomatis serovars among members of the indigenous rural an...
متن کاملCombination of PCR targeting the VD2 of omp1 and reverse line blot analysis for typing of urogenital Chlamydia trachomatis serovars in cervical scrape specimens.
In this study we developed and evaluated a new PCR-based typing assay, directed to the VD2 region of the omp1 gene, for the detection and typing of urogenital Chlamydia trachomatis infections. A nested VD2 PCR-reverse line blot (RLB) assay was developed for the typing of nine different urogenital serovars of C. trachomatis. The assay developed was tested with reference strains of C. trachomatis...
