To investigate the in vitro activity of the fourth generation cephalosporin FK-037, MICs were determined for 80 strains of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus from 11 countries. Methicillin and cefamandole served as comparators. The method ensured good expression of PBP2' by use of a large inoculum, salt supplement and incubation for 48 hours at 30 degrees C. FK-037 was twice as active as cefamandole against both strains with high-level and strains with low-level methicillin resistance (geometric mean MICs 23.4 and 10.8 mg/l, respectively).
为研究第四代头孢菌素FK-037的体外活性,测定了来自11个国家的80株耐甲氧西林金黄色葡萄球菌的最低抑菌浓度(MIC)。以甲氧西林和头孢孟多作为对照。该方法通过使用大量接种物、补充盐分并在30℃孵育48小时,确保了PBP2'的良好表达。FK-037对高水平和低水平耐甲氧西林菌株的活性均为头孢孟多的两倍(几何平均MIC分别为23.4和10.8mg/l)。
