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 ...

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 ...

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 ...

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 ...

Phenotypic characteristics of 31 strains of Corynebacterium striatum isolated from clinical samples
(American Society for Microbiology, 1995)
During a 34-month period (January 1991 to October 1993), 31 Corynebacterium striatum strains recovered from clinical samples from 24 patients were characterized. Twenty (64%) strains were isolated from wound exudates, 5 ...

Evaluation of three automated systems for susceptibility testing of enterobacteria containing qnrB, qnrS, and/or aac(6′)-Ib-cr
(American Society for Microbiology, 2011)
The accuracy of the MicroScan WalkAway, BD Phoenix, and Vitek-2 systems for susceptibility testing of quinolones and aminoglycosides against 68 enterobacteria containing qnrB, qnrS, and/or aac(6′)-Ib-cr was evaluated using ...

Outer membrane profiles of clonally related Klebsiella pneumoniae isolates from clinical samples and activities of cephalosporins and carbapenems
(American Society for Microbiology, 1998-07-01)
Fifteen isolates of Klebsiella pneumoniae producing extended-spectrum β-lactamases (ESBLs) isolated during a nosocomial outbreak were studied. The strains belonged to the same clonal type, as shown by pulsed-field gel ...

Resistance of Pseudomonas aeruginosa to imipenem induced by eluates from siliconized latex urinary catheters is related to outer membrane protein alterations
(American Society for Microbiology, 1999-02-01)
The activity of imipenem against Pseudomonas aeruginosa HUS-3 decreased by 16 times in the presence of substances eluted from siliconized latex urinary catheters (SLUCs). SLUCs did not inactivate imipenem or increase β- ...
