چکیده

The in vitro susceptibilities of 181 isolates of precisely identified Proteeae species to five semisynthetic penicillins were determined with low and high inocula. Significant differences in susceptibility patterns among various Proteeae species to the penicillins examined were demonstrated. Providencia stuartii was clearly distinguished from Providencia alcalifaciens by its greater resistance to the antibiotics tested.

Semisynthetic Penicillin: In Vitro Studies

CI-867, a new semisynthetic penicillin, has exhibited broad-spectrum activity in vitro against gram-positive cocci, except penicillin G-resistant Staphylococcus aureus, and against gram-negative bacilli. It was especially active against Pseudomonas aeruginosa and as active as mezlocillin and piperacillin against Klebsiella pneumoniae. CI-867 was bactericidal against most organisms. Its activity...

Early synergistic interaction between semisynthetic penicillins and aminoglycosidic aminocyclitols against Enterobacteriaceae.

Time-kill curves were used to assess the relative in vitro efficacy of the early interaction of three semisynthetic penicillins with two aminoglycosides against 48 Enterobacteriaceae strains. The most efficacious combinations were piperacillin plus amikacin, which demonstrated synergism (greater than or equal to 2 logs of increased kill after 7 h of incubation) against 43 of 48 (90%) strains, a...

Comparative synergistic activity of nafcillin, oxacillin, and methicillin in combination with gentamicin against.

The effectiveness of three semisynthetic, penicillinase-resistant penicillins alone and in combination with gentamicin was tested against 29 clinical isolates of enterococci. The minimal inhibitory concentrations of nafcillin were considerably lower than those of oxacillin and methicillin but were slightly higher than those of penicillin. At clinically achievable concentrations, the combination...

Piperacillin (T-1220), a new semisynthetic penicillin: in vitro antimicrobial activity comparison with carbenicillin, ticarcillin, ampicillin, cephalothin, cefamandole and cefoxitin.

Piperacillin (T-1220) is a new semisynthetic penicillin with an unusually broad spectrum of antimicrobial activity. In vitro comparisons of this drug with 6 other beta-lactam antimicrobics (ticarcillin, carbenicillin, ampicillin, cephalothin, cefamandole and cefoxitin) were conducted. These included minimal inhibitory concentrations (MIC) against 394 bacterial isolates, the minimal lethal conce...

In vitro microbiological evaluation of TEI-1194 and TEI-2012, novel antipseudomonal semisynthetic penicillins.

TEI-1194, sodium 6-[D-(-)-alpha-(coumarin-3-carboxamide)-phenylacetamide] penicillanate and TEI-2012, sodium 6[D-(-)alpha-(8-hydroxy-coumarin-3-carboxamide)-phenylacetamide] penicillanate are new semisynthetic penicillin derivatives both possessing a broad spectrum of in vitro antibacterial activities. Minimal inhibitory concentrations of both agents were compared with carbenicillin. TEI-1194 a...
