In Vitro Activity of Rifampin, Rifabutin, Rifapentine, and Rifaximin against Planktonic and Biofilm States of Staphylococci Isolated from Periprosthetic Joint Infection

Antimicrobial Agents and Chemotherapy, 2019
The in vitro activities of rifampin, rifabutin, rifapentine, and rifaximin were tested against 200 periprosthetic joint infection (PJI)-associated staphylococci. Seven rifampin-resistant isolates had MICs of ≥4 μg/ml.

Rifampin and vaccinia DNA [PDF]

Journal of Virology, 1977
The effect of rifampin on the replication of vaccinia DNA was studied in mouse L cells by a cytochemical techinque and by alkaline sucrose sedimentation analysis of newly synthesized viral DNA molecules. By the use of a fluorescent DNA-binding compound (Hoechst 33258), the sequential appearance, size, and location of the viral "factories" in rifampin ...

Assessment of Factors Contributing to Infection Severity and High Levels of Drug Resistance in Clinical Enterococcus Isolates

Journal of Clinical Laboratory Analysis, EarlyView.
E. faecalis was the predominant species (60.7%). Moreover, 39.3% of the isolates were identified as VRE with an MIC > 32 μg/mL, and the vanA gene was detected in 35.7% of the isolates. High‐level resistance to gentamicin and streptomycin was observed in 60.7% and 50% of the isolates, respectively.

Myelosuppression Rates with Administration of Nafcillin with and without Rifampin in Pediatric Patients

Pediatric Reports, 2022
Myelosuppression, a potential adverse reaction of nafcillin and rifampin, is rarely documented in pediatric populations. The objective of this study is to describe the incidence of myelosuppression in pediatric patients receiving nafcillin or a ...

Phage ϕC2 mediates transduction of Tn6215, encoding erythromycin resistance, between Clostridium difficile strains [PDF]

, 2013
UNLABELLED: In this work, we show that Clostridium difficile phage ϕC2 transduces erm(B), which confers erythromycin resistance, from a donor to a recipient strain at a frequency of 10(-6) per PFU.
