Thiram and disulfiram were evaluated as antibacterial agents against multidrug-resistant Against a 30-member panel comprised of vancomycin-susceptible, vancomycin-intermediate, and vancomycin-resistant strains, the MIC values of the respective test agents were 4 and 16 μg/ml. Additional analyses revealed that thiram and disulfiram are rapid-acting bacteriostatic agents with narrow, Gram-positive-bacterium spectrum activity. Synergy studies further determined that disulfiram increases the vancomycin susceptibility of three clinical vancomycin-resistant strains , thus establishing a potential use in combination therapy.
四亚甲基二砜四胺和双硫仑被评估为抗耐多药革兰阳性菌的抗菌药物。在一个由万古霉素敏感、中介和耐药 30 株菌组成的专家组中,相应测试药物的 MIC 值分别为 4 和 16 μg/ml。进一步的分析表明,四亚甲基二砜四胺和双硫仑是快速作用的抑菌剂,具有窄谱、革兰阳性菌活性。协同作用研究进一步确定,双硫仑增加了三种临床耐万古霉素的 菌株对万古霉素的敏感性,从而为联合治疗提供了潜在用途。
