Fung-Tomc, J, Dougherty, T J, DeOrio, F J, Simich-Jacobson, V, Kessler, R E

One hundred clinical isolates resistant to ceftazidime and/or cefotaxime were examined for susceptibility to cefepime. The most frequently encountered ceftazidime-cefotaxime-resistant strains...

Frequency of in vitro resistance of Pseudomonas aeruginosa to cefepime, ceftazidime, and cefotaxime.

Fung-Tomc, J, Huczko, E, Pearce, M, Kessler, R E

The selection frequencies of cefepime (BMY 28142), ceftazidime, and cefotaxime resistance among Pseudomonas aeruginosa strains were determined. Cefepime-resistant mutants were not selected by...

Activity of quinolones in the Ames Salmonella TA102 mutagenicity test and other bacterial genotoxicity assays.

Mamber, S W, Kolek, B, Brookshire, K W, Bonner, D P, Fung-Tomc, J

Eight quinolones were examined for their bacterial mutagenicity in the Ames Salmonella TA102 assay and for their effects in other bacterial genotoxicity assays. In the quantitative Ames plate...

Ciprofloxacin-induced, low-level resistance to structurally unrelated antibiotics in Pseudomonas aeruginosa and methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus.

Fung-Tomc, J, Kolek, B, Bonner, D P

The effects of ciprofloxacin on the rates of development of low-level resistance to other antibiotics were determined in vitro. Three methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus and two Pseudomonas...

In vitro activities of cefepime alone and with amikacin against aminoglycoside-resistant gram-negative bacteria.

Fung-Tomc, J, Huczko, E, Kolek, B, Thater, C, Kessler, R E

The in vitro activity of cefepime was compared with those of ceftazidime, cefotaxime, and cefpirome against aminoglycoside-resistant gram-negative bacteria. Cefepime was the most active...

Inability of cephalothin testing to predict cefprozil susceptibility.

Fung-Tomc, J, Stickle, T, Doyle, C, Huczko, E, Kessler, R E

The 30-micrograms cefprozil disk and the cephalosporin class (30-micrograms cephalothin) disk were compared for their abilities to predict cefprozil susceptibility by agar disk diffusion testing....

Emergence of homogeneously methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus.

Fung-Tomc, J, Huczko, E, Gradelski, E, Denbleyker, K, Bonner, D P, Kessler, R E

Forty-seven clinical isolates of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA), collected between 1986 and 1990 from 29 institutions, were analyzed for susceptibility to various antibiotics....

In vitro and in vivo antibacterial activities of BMY 40062, a new fluoronaphthyridone.

Fung-Tomc, J, Desiderio, J V, Tsai, Y H, Warr, G, Kessler, R E

The in vitro and in vivo activities of a new naphthyridone, BMY 40062, were compared with those of ciprofloxacin and ofloxacin. BMY 40062 showed about threefold more activity than ciprofloxacin...
