This study aimed to evaluate whether the antibiotic fidaxomicin has activity against (Mtb). 38 fully drug-sensitive Mtb strains and 34 multidrug-resistant tuberculosis (MDR-TB) strains were tested using the microplate alamar blue assay (MABA) method to determine the minimum inhibitory concentrations (MICs) for fidaxomicin and rifampicin. Fidaxomicin has high activity against Mtb and is a potential drug to treat Mtb, and MDR-TB infections in particular.
本研究旨在评估抗生素菲达霉素对(结核分枝杆菌)是否具有活性。采用微量肉汤稀释法(MABA)检测 38 株完全药敏结核分枝杆菌株和 34 株耐多药结核分枝杆菌(MDR-TB)株的最小抑菌浓度(MIC),以评估菲达霉素和利福平的 MIC 值。菲达霉素对结核分枝杆菌具有高度活性,是治疗结核分枝杆菌和耐多药结核分枝杆菌感染的潜在药物。
