Energy-dependent accumulation of fluoroquinolones in quinolone- resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae strains
(American Society for Microbiology, 1998-07-01)
The intracellular accumulation of norfloxacin and perloxacin in Klebsiella pneumoniae was evaluated. The roles of lipopolysaccharide, capsule, and outer membrane proteins were not important for the intrabacterial accumulation ...

Activity of imipenem/relebactam and comparators against KPC-producing Klebsiella pneumoniae and imipenem-resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa
(Springer, 2023-12-29)
Purpose: Relebactam is a novel β-lactamase inhibitor, which, when combined with imipenem/cilastatin, is active against both class A and class C β-lactamases. To evaluate in vitro antimicrobial activity of imipenem/relebactam ...

Zinc eluted from siliconized latex urinary catheters decreases OprD expression, causing carbapenem resistance in Pseudomonas aeruginosa
(American Society for Microbiology, 2003-07-01)
The activities of carbapenems against Pseudomonas aeruginosa decreased in the presence of siliconized latex urinary catheters (SLUCs). This effect was associated with the loss of OprD. The zinc that eluted from SLUCs is ...

Uptake and intracellular activity of sparfloxacin in human polymorphonuclear leukocytes and tissue culture cells
(American Society for Microbiology, 1992-01-01)
The penetration of sparfloxacin into human neutrophils (PMN) and different tissue culture cells (HEp-2 and McCoy) was evaluated. The cellular to extracellular concentration ratios (C/E) of sparfloxacin were always higher ...

Activities of ABT-773 against Listeria monocytogenes and coryneform bacteria of clinical interest
(American Society for Microbiology, 2003-04-01)
The in vitro activities of ABT-773 were evaluated against 15 Listeria monocytogenes strains and 196 coryneform bacteria isolated from clinical samples. One hundred percent of the L. monocytogenes strains were inhibited by ...

Uptake and intracellular activity of linezolid in human phagocytes and nonphagocytic cells
(American Society for Microbiology, 2002-12-01)
The intracellular penetration and activity of linezolid in human polymorphonuclear leukocytes and tissue-cultured cells (McCoy) were evaluated. Linezolid reached intracellular concentrations slightly greater than extracellular ...

Role of Klebsiella pneumoniae LamB porin in antimicrobial resistance
(American Society for Microbiology, 2003-10-01)
To investigate the contribution of LamB in Klebsiella pneumoniae antimicrobial resistance, we determined the MICs of various antibiotics and the frequency of mutation to increased cefoxitin or meropenem resistance of the ...

Intracellular penetration and activity of BAY Y 3118 in human polymorphonuclear leukocytes
(American Society for Microbiology, 1994-01-01)
The penetration of a new quinolone (BAY Y 3118) into human polymorphonuclear leukocytes (PMNs) was evaluated by a fluorometric assay. The cellular concentration-to-extracellular concentration (C/E) ratio was higher than ...

Interplay between IncF plasmids and topoisomerase mutations conferring quinolone resistance in the Escherichia coli ST131 clone: stability and resistance evolution
(Springer, 2021-11-17)
The Escherichia coli ST131 H30-Rx subclone vehicles CTX-M-15 plasmids and mutations in gyrA and parC conferring multidrug resistance successfully in the clinical setting. The aim of this study was (1) to investigate the ...

Effectiveness of fosfomycin trometamol as oral step-down therapy for bacteraemic urinary tract infections due to MDR Escherichia coli: a post hoc analysis of the FOREST randomized trial
(Oxford Academic, 2023)
Background Fosfomycin is a potentially attractive option as step-down therapy for bacteraemic urinary tract infections (BUTI), but available data are scarce. Our objective was to compare the effectiveness and safety of ...
