Comparison of the suitability of three common bacterial media for susceptibility testing of trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole.

چکیده
The in vitro inhibitory activity of trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole is inversely related to the amount of thymine and thymidine in the test medium; manufacturers must adequately control their media to avoid spurious antimicrobial susceptibility results. No differences were observed when commercial Mueller-Hinton broth and agar were compared with a semisynthetic broth medium by the use of microdilution and disk diffusion techniques.

Multidrug Resistance in Infants and Children
Bacterial infections may cause disease and death. Infants and children are often subject to bacterial infections. Antimicrobials kill bacteria protecting the infected patients andreducing the risk of morbidity and mortality caused by bacteria. The antibiotics may lose their antibacterial activity when they become resistant to a bacteria. The resistance to different antibiotics in a bacteria is ...
متن کاملIsolation, identification and antimicrobial susceptibility of pathogenic Aeromonas media isolated from diseased Koi carp (Cyprinus carpio koi)
Aeromonas infections are the most common bacterial disease of cultured fish in China. In this study, a gram-negative bacillus was isolated from the liver of diseased koi carp (Cyprinus carpio koi), and named strain KC-2. The results of morphological and biochemical tests, as well as phylogenetic analysis derived from 16S rRNA and gyrB sequences indicated that the isolated strain KC-2 was highly...
متن کاملComparison of in vitro susceptibility of Neisseria gonorrhoeae to trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole on three different media.
In vitro susceptibility of 100 clinical isolates of Neisseria gonorrhoeae to trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole (TMP-SMZ combination; 1:19) was determined by the agar dilution technique using three different media under similar conditions. On Oxoid diagnostic sensitivity test, Mueller-Hinton, and GC agar media, the percentage of isolates inhibited by 2.5 mug or less of TMP per ml and 47.5 mug or les...
