چکیده
Minimum inhibitory concentrations of seven new beta-lactam derivatives were determined against 35 isolates of Yersinia enterocolitica. Ceftizoxime and ceftriaxone were the most active of the antimicrobial agents tested.

Failure of newer beta-lactam antibiotics for murine Yersinia enterocolitica infection.
Cefotaxime, imipenem, gentamicin, and doxycycline were active in vitro against the virulent serotype O8 Yersinia enterocolitica WA strain. Amoxycillin was inactive. The in vivo activity of these drugs was evaluated in a standardized and reproducible mouse model of systemic infection. Each single antibiotic was injected intravenously 30 h after intravenous inoculation of Y. enterocolitica WA. In...

Background:Yersinia is a genus in the family Enterobacteriaceae that its species includeYersinia enterocolitica, Yersinia intermedia, Yersinia frederiksenii, and Yersinia kristensenii. Among these species, Yersinia enterocolitica is the most important one that causes various diseases such as gastroenteritis, mesenteric lymph...
متن کاملIn vitro susceptibilities of 126 clinical isolates of Yersinia enterocolitica to 21 beta-lactam antibiotics.
The MICs of 21 beta-lactam antibiotics were measured against 126 clinically significant and epidemiologically unrelated Yersinia enterocolitica isolates. The most active antimicrobial agents tested (geometric means of MICs) were ceftriaxone, cefotaxime, ceftizoxime, and cefmenoxime (0.06 to 0.08 micrograms/ml). Mezlocillin (1.36 micrograms/ml) and piperacillin (1.57 micrograms/ml) were the most...
متن کاملSynergistic effects of dicloxacillin or clavulanic acid in combination with penicillin G or cephalothin against Yersinia enterocolitica.
Cultures of Yersinia enterocolitica grown at 22 degrees C produced beta-lactamases, whereas cultures grown at 37 degrees C produced these enzymes much less effectively. Both dicloxacillin and clavulanic acid inhibited the beta-lactamase activity of bacterial crude extracts and potentiated the activity of penicillin G or cephalothin against 14 Y. enterocolitica strains. It appeared that the beta...
