Tigecycline Susceptibility of Carbapenem Resistant Enterobacteriaceae and Acinetobacter spp. isolates from Respiratory Tract: A Tertiary Care Centre Study [PDF]
Background: Tigecycline is used as a last line of defence against Multidrug Resistant (MDR) strains, and increasing rates of resistance are a growing concern globally. Tigecycline resistance has been reported in various pathogens including Acinetobacter

In vitro activities of tigecycline combined with other antimicrobials against multiresistant Gram-positive and Gram-negative pathogens [PDF]
Objectives To test the activity of tigecycline combined with 16 antimicrobials in vitro against 22 Gram-positive and 55 Gram-negative clinical isolates. Methods Antibiotic interactions were determined by chequerboard and time-kill methods.

Isoniazid potentiates tigecycline to kill methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus
Therapeutic option for treating methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) infection is urgently required since its resistance to a broad spectrum of currently available antibiotics. Here, we report that isoniazid is able to potentiate the killing efficacy of tigecycline to MRSA.
