The role of cell-free soluble factors (lymphokines) derived from mitogen-activated splenic cells of mice previously immunized against Bacteroides fragilis was evaluated in the treatment of B. fragilis intra-abdominal abscess (IAA). Neither clindamycin nor lymphokines alone were effective against an established B. fragilis IAA, but the combination of clindamycin and lymphokines decreased the abs...

Randomly selected strains of beta-lactamase-negative and beta-lactamase-positive Neisseria gonorrhoeae were tested by an agar dilution method for susceptibility to rosamicin, josamycin, erythromycin, clindamycin, and penicillin G. Rosamicin was more active than erythromycin, which was more active than josamycin or clindamycin; the latter two were similar in their activity. The susceptibility to...

Clindamycin is a bacteriostatic lincosamide antibiotic with a broad spectrum. Side effects include nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, and metallic taste; however, hepatotoxicity is rare. The incidence is unknown. It is characterized by increases in aspartate and alanine transaminases. There may be no symptoms and the treatment is to stop the administration of clindamycin. We have described a 62-year-o...

esophageal level for a few hours. Five days before he had been operated on for a pilonidal cyst, having henceforth been treated with clindamycin in capsules, which were ingested with very small amounts of liquid. He had been feeling some pain ever since. An upper endoscopy revealed the presence of two superficial ulcers at 30 cm (Fig. 1A) and another two deep, friable-upon-friction ulcers at 28...

Prevalence of Clindamycin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus Induced by Macrolide Resistance, Iran, 2019-2021

This study aimed to identify Staphylococcus sp. and antibiotic resistance in Tutur District, Pasuruan. A total of 273 samples cow's milk were evaluated identified as Furthermore, the test was carried out according CLSI standards. showed 41 isolates 97 positive CMT. The results reported seven resistant antibiotics consisted one multidrug-resistant isolate, i.e. S. saprophyticus which penicillin,...

OBJECTIVE The efficacy, safety, and antibiotic-related charges for once-daily gentamicin with twice-daily clindamycin were compared with those of thrice-daily dosing of these antibiotics. STUDY DESIGN Patients with puerperal endometritis or with chorioamnionitis in labor assessed to be at risk for endometritis were randomized to receive gentamicin 4 mg/kg intravenously every 24 hours with cli...

Staphylococcus aureus remains a leading, virulent pathogen capable of expressing complex drug resistance that requires up to 2-4 days for laboratory analysis. In this study, we evaluate the ability of automated microscopy of immobilized live bacterial cells to differentiate susceptible from non-susceptible responses of S. aureus isolates (MRSA/MSSA, clindamycin resistance/susceptibility and VSS...

D test is a simple disc diffusion test giving high throughput results. It is used to study the macrolide lincosamide streptogramin resistance (MLSB), both constitutive and inducible as well as macrolide streptogramin resistance (MSB) in Staphylococcus aureus. In this test, erythromycin (macrolide) and clindamycin (lincosamide derivative) discs are placed adjacent to each other over the Mueller ...
