| ["in vitro" determination of bacterial sensitivity to tobramycin (author's transl)]. | the authors report the tobramycin minimal inhibitory concentration (mic) of 264 strains (dilution in mueller-hinton agar). staphylococcus aureus (96 strains) have a mic of 0.02 mcg/ml, 80 % being inhibited by 0.07 mcg/ml. most enterobacteriaceae (70 strains) are sensitive to 0.7 mcg/ml ; providencia are the most resistant (mic 11.88 mcg/ml). among pseudomonas aeruginosa (98 strains, mic : 11.57 mcg/ml) 50 % are inhibited by 0.30 mcg/ml, 80 % by 18.8 mcg/ml. relationships of mic to zone diameters ... | 1976 | 817253 |
| diversity of beta-lactamase activity among clinical isolates of gram-negative bacilli. | various properties (specific activity, inducibility, substrate profile, and susceptibility to inhibitors) of the beta-lactamase activity present in 39 strains of enterobacteriaceae and pseudomonas aeruginosa isolated during a two-month period in the bacteriology laboratory of a large general hospital were investigated. among the 39 strains there appeared to be at least 16 distinct enzymes. most enzymes from escherichia coli, klebsiella pneumoniae, proteus mirabilis, and proteus morganii were act ... | 1976 | 817594 |
| studies on the antimicrobial activity of amniotic fluid. | sixty-one amniotic fluid samples from women in their second and third trimesters of pregnancy were examined for antimicrobial activity. seventy per cent of the fluids were found to be active. the factor or factors responsible for this activity were present in low concentrations. the presence of spermine in the fluids accounted for some of the antimicrobial activity. | 1976 | 817602 |
| polymicrobic bacteriuria: significant association with bacteremia. | current clinical practice states that a urine culture yielding three or more isolates must be considered a contaminated specimen and discarded. the validity of this practice was tested by reviewing all patients at the west haven veterans administration hospital with positive blood cultures for 1 year to determine how many were associated with polymicrobic bacteriuria (two or more urine isolates each present at greater than 10(5) colonies/ml). during 1973 there were 18 patients who had bacteremia ... | 1976 | 818108 |
| [clinical studies on gentamicin (author's transl)]. | gentamicin (gm) was studied for on its antibacterial activity, absorption, and excretion, effect on the kidney and clinical effects. the results obtained are as follows: 1. antibacterial activity: the susceptibility of e. coli, klebsiella, proteus mirabilis to gm was almost the same between the periods of 1964 to 1966 and 1972 to 1974: no tendency of increase of resistance by year was noted. however, against pseudomonas aeruginosa, strains showing sensitivity to a concentration of more than 25 m ... | 1976 | 818417 |
| [change of pathogen in infections since 1958 (author's transl)]. | infections with proteus, pseudomonas, klebsiella and enterococci have increased significantly in the period of this report. the question of hospital hygiene, especially in intensive care wards, must therefore be given increased attention. uncritical prophylaxis and treatment with antibiotics must be rejected. attempts to improve the cellular and humoral defense of patients with reduced resistance would be worth while. to achieve progress, there must be a close co-operation between specialists in ... | 1976 | 818523 |
| effect of lanthanum on pinocytosis induced by cations in amoeba proteus. | lanthanum chloride (greater than or equal to 10(-5) m) induced pinocytosis in normal and at greater than or equal to 10(-4) m in ca++-deficient amoeba. with respect to the ca++-requirement of the pinocytotic response low and high concentrations of la+++ had effects like na+ and k+, respectively. the concentration of la+++ stimulated or inhibited other types of pinocytosis. thus all concentrations of la+++ inhibited sodium induced pinocytosis while high concentrations (greater than 10(-3) m) stim ... | 1976 | 818877 |
| [species makeup, biological activity and antibiotic sensitivity of the microbes isolated from patients with a surgical infection]. | specimens from 227 patients with purulent surgical infections of various localization were tested. the microbial growth was observed in 87.6 per cent of the patients, staphylococci being found in 80.8 per cent of them. the plasma coagulating properties were detected in the staphylococci from 84.2 per cent of the patients among the total number of the staphylococcal isolates. staphylococci were mostly isolated from the patients with osteomyelitis, infected wounds. monocultures of the microbes and ... | 1976 | 818943 |
| [experimental study of an aerosol preparation containing gentamicin (gentasol)]. | composition of a suspension aerosol drug, gentasol for local application was developed. it contained gentamycin and prednisolon. the antimicrobial properties of the drug were studied in vitro. it was found that gentasol had a pronounced antimicrobiol effect and inhibited the growth of many microorganisms including cultures resistant to other antibiotics. the drug was active against ps. aeruginosa and proteus, which is an advantage of it as compared to other antibiotic aerosol drugs. the study sh ... | 1976 | 818945 |
| [antibiotic and chemopreparation sensitivity of the microflora isolated from the bile in inflammatory diseases of the biliary excretory system]. | the study of sensitivity to some antibiotics and chemotherapeutics of 250 cultures of the main causative agents of the inflammatory diseases of the bile secretion system, i. e. coli bacteria, proteus, ps. aeruginosa and staphylococcus showed that the above microorganisms were in most cases highly resistant to the antibacterial drugs widely used in the clinical practice. the exclusion presented the drugs of the aminoglycoside group and especially gentamycin which had the highest activity. the ana ... | 1976 | 818947 |
| [experimental study of the antibacterial action of levomycatin in a 40% solution of hexamethylenetetramine]. | antimicrobial and chemotherapeutic activity of 2 per cent solution of levomycetin in 40 per cent solution of hexamethylentetramine was studied. the preparation was proposed as a new extemporal pharmaceutical form of levomycetin for intravenous administration. it was shown that the bacteriostatic activity of levomycetin in the above pharmaceutical form against microbial cultures sensitive to the antibiotic did not differ from that of levomycetin in the form of an aqueous solution. however, the ba ... | 1976 | 818951 |
| laboratory evaluation of fr10612, a new oral cephalosporin derivative. | fr10612, like cephalexin, is a broad-spectrum oral cephalosporin derivative. the antimicrobial activity of fr10612 against clinical isolates was similar to cephalexin; however, at a low inoculum size its activity was greater than cephalexin against klebsiella pneumonia and proteus mirabilis strains. like cephalexin, the in vitro bactericidal activity of fr10612 was more influenced by the duration of contact with the test organism than by drug concentration. the bactericidal activity of fr10612 a ... | 1976 | 819411 |
| destruction of ossicles in chronic otitis media. | the purpose of this study is to investigate the differences in the destruction of ossicles in chronic ear disease caused solely (monoinfection) by one of the most common three bacteria, namely staphylococcus aureus, pseudomonas aeruginosa or proteus strain. material included 337 cases from 1,093 radically operated ears both with cholesteatoma and without cholesteatoma and in addition cholesteatomatous ears without signs of infection since diagnosed. in 190 ears with cholesteatoma but without dis ... | 1976 | 819605 |
| identification of beta-lactamases by analytical isoelectric focusing: correlation with bacterial taxonomy. | beta-lactamases (ec. 3.5.2.6) can be directly compared by analytical isoelectric focusing. using this technique, 242 strains from five gram-positive and 16 gram-negative genera were examined. a preparation of each strain focused as a single group of bands which did not match the pattern of any r factor-associated beta-lactamase. none of the strains was known to carry an r factor and resistance transfer experiments were unsuccessful. the enzymes studied were therefore thought to be chromosomally ... | 1976 | 819625 |

| in vitro evaluation of cefoxitin and cefamandole. | cefoxitin and cefamandole were evaluated in vitro against 263 organisms. studies were performed in mueller-hinton and nutrient broth and agar employing inoculum sizes of 10(6) and 10(8) organisms per ml. at obtainable serum levels both antibiotics were bactericidal for nearly all strains of escherichia coli, klebsiella, proteus mirabilis, and staphylococcus aureus but were inactive against pseudomonas aeruginosa and enterococcus. in agar, cefamandole appeared to be active against most strains of ... | 1976 | 820241 |
| [antibacterial activity of antibiotics in human bile (author's transl)]. | marked differences exist between antibacterial activity in human bile and broth. whereas penicillins and cephalosporines exhibit virtually the same activity in broth and bile, tetracycline shows a great lose, and the activity of the aminoglykosides is increased in bile. minimal inhibitory concentrations of chlorampenicol and co-trimoxazole are also different in broth and human bile. the differences in activity are related to the ph although not all deviations can be attributed to the effect of t ... | 1976 | 820649 |
| comparative evaluation of five aminoglycosides for treatment. | gentamicin, tobramycin, sisomicin, amikacin and kanamycin are compared for therapeutic use by correlating the in vitro minimal inhibitory concentration with the in vivo concentration of the antibiotic attainable in the serum at half the time intervall between two administrations of the drugs. using this method of evaluation, e. coli, enterobacter and sensitive strains of the klebsiella and pseudomonas species can be treated in principle equally well with gentamicin, tobramycin and sisomicin, and ... | 1976 | 820656 |
| topical chemoprophylaxis with silver sulphadiazine and silver nitrate chlorhexidine creams: emergence of sulphonamide-resistant gram-negative bacilli. | controlled trials of 0.5% silver nitrate compresses (sn), 1% silver sulphadiazine cream (ssd), and a cream containing 0.5% silver nitrate and 0.2% chlorhexidine digluconate (snc) showed that all were comparably effective in protecting burns from infection. sn compresses were much less active against miscellaneous gram-negative bacilli than the other preparations, and the mean morning and evening temperatures and respiration rates in the patients treated with sn compresses were higher then those ... | 1976 | 814955 |
| urease. the primary cause of infection-induced urinary stones. | previous reports have suggested that urease-producing bacteria play a prominent role in the formation of infection-induced urinary stones. we have carried out crystalization experiments in vitro which show that bacterial urease alkalinizes urine, thereby causing: (i) supersaturation with respect to struvite and calcium phosphate; and (ii) formation of struvite and apatite crystals. growth of proteus in urea-free urine or in urine which contained a urease inhibitor did not cause alkalinization, s ... | 1976 | 815197 |
| accelerated healing in infected wounds. | the effect of a standardized infection of pure and mixed cultures of gram-negative bacteria and a gram-positive coccus was studied in laparotomy wounds of rats. the infections were significantly stronger than in the control group wounds in 14 of 15 comparisons. this increased strength could not be correlated with an increased wound content of collagen. results of histologic studies showed a vigorous inflammatory response which probably was responsible for the increased strength. there was a sugg ... | 1976 | 816018 |
| [the application of actihaemyl in chronically inflamed and dystrophic urinary bladder (author's transl)]. | the effect of automated continuous irrigation treatment with actihaemyl on bacterial growth in the infected urinary bladder was tested using an experimental model. the result was that instillation alone of this preparation promoted growth of escherichia coli, proteus mirabilis, and pseudomonas aeruginosa in the infected bladder. with simultaneous application of framycetinsulfate or kanamycin the growth of pr. mirabilis and ps. aeruginosa was totally suppressed in the "urine", and the growth of e ... | 1976 | 816047 |

| phospholipid and lipopolysaccharide in proteus mirabilis and its stable protoplast l-form. difference in content and fatty acid composition. | cells of the stable protoplast l-form of proteus mirabilis contain 1.5 to 2 times more extractable lipid, mostly phospholipid, per dry weight than cells of the bacterial form. under identical conditions of cultivation the qualitative and quantitiative composition of the phospholipid is very similar in both cell forms. the range of mole percentages of individual phospholipid species is 78-80 for phosphatidylethanolamine, 10-13 for phosphatidylglycerol, 3.9-5.5 for diphosphatidylglycerol and 1.0-2 ... | 1976 | 786631 |
| [amikacin in urinary tract infections with so-called problem pathogens]. | amikacin (biklin) was applied in 33 patients with and without renal insufficiency, suffering of non-obstructive inflammations of the urinary tract, caused by multiple resistant hospital germs. the dosage was 125.0--1000.0 mg/die, injected as short infusion and solved in dextrose 5%. the serum and urine concentrations were measured simultaneously. in 18 cases an infection could not be seen after a control period of 8 days up to 4 weeks. persistence of bacteria happened in five cases. reinfection ... | 1976 | 786834 |
| formation of crystalline deposits by several genera of the family enterobacteriaceae. | several species of bacteria from the family enterobacteriaceae formed crystalline materials containing calcium when grown in a defined culture medium. enterobacter aerogenes, proteus vulgaris, citrobacter freundii, and c. intermedius produced calcium pyrophosphate crystals. edwardsiella tarda and escherichia coli formed calcite iii crystals, whereas proteus mirabilis, klebsiella pneumoniae, providencia stuartii, and serratia marcescens produced hydroxyapatite crystals. several of these bacteria ... | 1976 | 786887 |
| transcription of escherichia coli ribosomal dna in proteus mirabilis. | transcription of escherichia coli ribosomal dna introduced into proteus mirabilis on f14 is described. we have developed an assay for e. coli coded ribosomal rna involving fingerprinting of ribonuclease t1 digests of rna isolated from ribosomal subunits. sequence differences in the ribosomal rna of the two species have allowed us to detect e. coli coded 16s, 23s, and 5s ribosomal rna in ribosomal subunits of the e. coli-p. mirabilis hybrid. the proportion of e. coli coded rrna in the hybrid is f ... | 1976 | 787756 |
| properties of plasmids constructed by the in vitro insertion of dna from rhizobium leguminosarum or proteus mirabilis into rp4. | plasmids have been constructed by insertion of dna from rhizobium leguminosarum or proteus mirabilis into rp4 (an r factor of group p). such recombinant plasmids retain the wide host range of the parental plasmid, being as efficiently transmissible as the unmodified rp4 and are stably maintained in rapidly growing cultures. the recombinant plasmids, even though each contained a dna sequence absolutely identical with that of the host strain, are no more efficient at mobilizing the transfer of chr ... | 1976 | 787766 |
| sensitivity patterns of urinary pathogens in the southland community and a study of sewage flora. | the overall sensitivity pattern of the three main urinary pathogens to the commonly used oral antibodies exceeded 80 percent. the incidence of multiple resistant escherichia coli was 8 percent. the resistant patterns of the sewage e. coli resembled that of the resistant urinary e. coli. however only one-third of the resistant urinary e. coli showed multiple resistance whereas two-thirds of the resistant e. coli in the sewage showed this feature. the resistance transfer was low in organisms isola ... | 1976 | 787846 |

| human oral defenses against gram-negative rods. | gram-negative rods are unusual pharyngeal isolates in normal man, which suggests the presence of effective oral defense mechanisms against these organisms. to understand this protection better, we studied the elimination of gram-negative rods from the mouth after gargle challenge. suspensions of escherichia coli, klebsiella pneumoniae, and proteus mirabilis (108 organisms per ml) were gargled by normal volunteers, and pharyngeal swabs for serial quantitative cultures were taken for 3 hours. init ... | 1976 | 791034 |
| genetic relatedness in the family enterobacteriaceae. | five criteria of genetic relatedness are considered. the first, transfer of plasmids between groups, is frequently not a good criterion, because transfer is possible between all genera of the enterobacteriaceae and also to genera in other families. though transfer to closely related groups is most frequent, host restriction and the properties of the plasmid may influence the transfer frequency as much as the relatedness of the donor and recipient. the second criterion is interspecies recombinati ... | 1976 | 791071 |
| susceptibility of acinetobacter calcoaceticus var. anitratus (herellea vaginicola) to minocycline. | the in vitro activity of minocycline against acinetobacter calcoaceticus var. anitratus (herellea vaginicola) was examined. all strains of a. anitratus were inhibited by minocycline at concentrations of 0.4 mug/ml or less. the strains studied were considerably more susceptible to minocycline than tetracycline. no difference between the susceptibility to minocycline and tetracycline was seen with escherichia coli, klebsiella pneumoniae, enterobacter and proteus sp. a regression line of the log mi ... | 1976 | 791084 |
