Sixty strains of vancomycin- and ampicillin-resistant Enterococcus faecium were evaluated for their susceptibilities to novobiocin in vitro. In Mueller-Hinton broth, novobiocin inhibited all strains when it was used at a concentration of < or = 2 microgram/ml and 40 of 60 strains when it was used at a concentration of < or = 0.5 micrograms/ml. MICs were 8- to 16-fold higher in 50% serum. Novobiocin alone resulted in 2-log-unit killing at 24 h. Combinations of novobiocin and a fluoroquinolone (either ciprofloxacin or ofloxacin) were additive and bactericidal for quinolone-susceptible strains in either broth or 50% serum. Gentamicin did not affect novobiocin activity, and rifampin and doxycycline were antagonistic.
对60株耐万古霉素和氨苄西林的粪肠球菌进行了体外新霉素敏感性评估。在穆勒-欣顿肉汤中,当新霉素浓度≤2微克/毫升时可抑制所有菌株,当浓度≤0.5微克/毫升时可抑制60株中的40株。在50%血清中,最低抑菌浓度(MIC)高8至16倍。单独使用新霉素在24小时时可导致2个对数单位的杀菌效果。新霉素与氟喹诺酮类药物(环丙沙星或氧氟沙星)联合使用对肉汤或50%血清中的喹诺酮敏感菌株具有相加和杀菌作用。庆大霉素不影响新霉素活性,利福平和强力霉素具有拮抗作用。
