摘要
A telithromycin (TEL) kill-kinetics study was conducted with 120 clinically significant Streptococcus pneurnoniae isolates (60 susceptible and 60 highly resistant to erythromycin). Time-kill curves were performed using different antibiotic concentrations. The minimum inhibitory concentrations (MICs) of TEL were low for both erythromycin-susceptible (MIC less than or equal to 0.0 16 mg/L) and erythromycin-resistant strains (MIC less than or equal to 0.25 mg/L). TEL showed 99.9% killing of all erythromycin resistant strains at 18-24 h of incubation. Even for strains with erythromycin MICs greater than or equal to 64.0 mg/L, TEL was uniformly bactericidal at 0.25 mg/L. (C) 2004 Elsevier B.V. and the International Society of Chemotherapy.
