Introduction

Cefalexin, also spelled cephalexin, is an antibiotic that can treat a number of bacterial infections. It kills gram-positive and some gram-negative bacteria by disrupting the growth of the bacterial cell wall. Cefalexin is a beta-lactam antibiotic within the class of first-generation cephalosporins. It works similarly to other agents within this class, including intravenous cefazolin, but can be taken by mouth.

Authors: da Costa, Mateus Matiuzzi; Drescher, Guilherme; Maboni, Franciele; Weber, Shana; Botton, Sonia de Avila; Vainstein, Marilene Henning; Schrank, Irene Silveira; de Vargas, Agueda Castagna

Abstract

The present study determined the molecular and resistance patterns of E. coli isolates from urinary tract of swine in Southern of Brazil. Molecular characterization of urinary vesicle samples was performed by PCR detection of virulence factors from ETEC, STEC and UPEC. From a total of 82 E. coli isolates, 34 (38.63%) harbored one or more virulence factors. The frequency of virulence factors genes detected by PCR were: pap (10.97%), hlyA (10.97%), iha (9.75%), lt (8.53%), sta (7.31%) sfa (6.09%), f4 (4.87%), f5 (4.87%), stb (4.87%), f6 (1.21%) and f41 (1.21%). Isolates were resistant to penicillin (95.12%), lincomycin (93.9%), erythromycin (92.68%), tetracycline (90.24%), amoxicillin (82.92%), ampicillin (74.39%), josamycin (79.26%), norfloxacin (58.53%), enrofloxacin (57.31%), gentamicin (39.02%), neomycin (37.8%), apramycin (30.48%), colistine (30.48%) and cefalexin (6.09%). A number of 32 (39.02%) E. coli isolates harbored plasmids.

POPTENTIATION OF ANTIBIOTIC-ACTIVITY BY EDTA-TROMETHAMINE AGAINST 3 CLINICALLY ISOLATED GRAM-POSITIVE RESISTANT-BACTERIA - AN IN-VITRO INVESTIGATION

VETERINARY RESEARCH COMMUNICATIONS

Authors: FARCA, AM; NEBBIA, P; RE, G

Abstract

The in vitro synergistic effects of combinations of EDTA-tromethamine and five antimicrobial agents (ampicillin, cephalexin, oxytetracycline, streptomycin and sulphadimethoxine) on three clinically isolated Gram-positive bacteria (Staphylococcus aureus, Staphylococcus hominis and Streptococcus faecium) were investigated. The bacteria had been isolated from three cases of canine otitis resistant to beta-lactam antibiotic therapy. The antimicrobial activity was evaluated by measuring the minimal inhibitory concentration for the antibiotics alone or in combination with EDTA-tromethamine. EDTA-tromethamine potentiated the activity of cefalexin against S. aureus and S. hominis, of oxytetracycline against S. aureus and S. faecium and of streptomycin against S. faecium. No significant effects were noted on the activity of oxytetracycline against S. hominis. The remaining combinations gave a slight synergistic effect. As previously shown for Gram-negative resistant bacteria, these data suggest that the association of EDTA-tromethamine and appropriate antibiotic therapy may be useful to overcome persistent infections of soft tissues in domestic animals.
