Cefotaxime: rate of bacterial killing and interactions with serum and leukocyte activity.

Acta Médica Portuguesa, 1983
Cefotaxime (HR 756) was compared with cefazolin and cephaloridine with regard to the rate of bacterial killing and to the influence on the bactericidal activity of human serum and polyrnorphonuclear leukocytes.

Salmonella Typhi Bactericidal Antibodies Reduce Disease Severity but Do Not Protect against Typhoid Fever in a Controlled Human Infection Model

Frontiers in Immunology, 2018
Effective vaccines against Salmonella Typhi, a major cause of febrile illness in tropical regions, can have a significant effect as a disease control measure. Earlier work has shown that immunization with either of two Salmonella Typhi vaccines, licensed

In Vitro Bactericidal Activity of a Neomycin-Polymyxin B-Nystatin Combination Compared to Metronidazole and Clindamycin Against the Main Bacteria Involved in Bacterial Vaginosis and Aerobic Vaginitis

Pharmaceuticals
Background/Objectives: Aerobic vaginitis (AV) and bacterial vaginosis (BV) are vaginal infections requiring the fast elimination of pathogens. The frequent confusion of these infections may justify the use of a rapidly acting broad-spectrum antibiotic ...

The stability of complement-mediated bactericidal activity in human serum against Salmonella.

PLoS ONE, 2012
The complement cascade includes heat-labile proteins and care is required when handling serum in order to preserve its functional integrity. We have previously used a whole human serum bactericidal assay to show that antibody and an intact complement ...

In vitro bactericidal activity of 3-cinnamoyl-4-hydroxy-6-methyl-2-pyrone (CHP) against drug-susceptible, drug-resistant and drug-tolerant isolates of Mycobacterium tuberculosis

Journal of Global Antimicrobial Resistance, 2020
Objectives: Tuberculosis (TB) poses a serious global threat to humans. New bactericidal agents that can shorten treatment duration and target drug resistance still remain a top priority in the discovery of anti-TB drugs.
