Thin-layer chromatographic determination of erythromycin and other macrolide antibiotics in livestock products.

A method is described for determination of 4 macrolide antibiotics in livestock products. Erythromycin, tylosin, oleandomycin, and spiramycin were extracted from animal tissues, milk, and egg with acetonitrile at pH 8.5. Cleanup was done by adding sodium chloride and dichloromethane, evaporating the organic layer, and subsequent acid/base partitioning. After the antibiotics were separated by thin-layer chromatography (TLC), they were reacted with xanthydrol and could be detected as purple spots down to 0.02 mg/kg without interference by other commonly used therapeutic drugs (23 were tested). Anisaldehyde-sulfuric acid, cerium sulfate-molybdic acid, phosphomolybdic acid, and Dragendorff's reagent proved to be less sensitive as visualizing agents. For quantitation, TLC plates were scanned at 525 nm. Recoveries were between 71 and 96% for erythromycin and tylosin in liver, muscle, and egg at the 0.1-0.5 mg/kg level and 51% for erythromycin in milk at the 0.02 mg/kg level (coefficient of variation = 10-18%). Bioautography with Bacillus subtilis was used to confirm results, in addition to TLC analysis of derivatized antibiotics and liquid chromatography with electrochemical detection. Various derivatization procedures for erythromycin were investigated for improved ultra-violet or fluorescence detection in liquid chromatography.

[Infrared spectra and the molecular conformations of macrolide-group antibiotics in solution].

IR spectra (1,600-1,800, 3,100-3,700 cm-1) of tetrachlorethylene solutions of macrolide antibiotics such as erythromycin monohydrate and dihydrate, oleandomycin, erythrolose amine and anhydroerythromycin were obtained. The atoms and atomic groups included into the hydrogen bond were determined. It was shown that the antibiotic molecule conformations were stabilized by the intramolecular hydrogen bonds.

[Antibiotic sensitivity of Mycoplasma pathogenic for man].

Human pathogen mycoplasmas (Mycoplasma pneumoniae, Mycoplasma hominis, Ureaplasma urealyticum) are intrinsically resistant to antibiotics which inhibit the cell wall biosynthesis (beta-lactams, vancomycin, bacitracin), to polymyxins, rifamycins, sulfonamides, trimethoprim, 5-nitroimidazoles, nitrofurans and to presently available quinolones. These three species are moderately susceptible to aminoglycosides, susceptible to chloramphenicol and highly susceptible to tetracyclines. M. pneumoniae is susceptible to macrolides, lincosamins and streptogramins. M. hominis is resistant to early macrolides (erythromycin, oleandomycin, spiramycin) and susceptible to new macrolides (josamycin, midecamycin, rosaramicin), lincosamins and streptogramins. U. urealyticum is resistant to lincosamins and susceptible to macrolides and streptogramins. Discordant results from various reports can be explained by differences in methods and breakpoint concentration values. In M. pneumoniae species, two strains resistant to macrolides and lincosamins have been described. In M. hominis species, one strain resistant to tetracyclines and another one resistant to tetracyclines and chloramphenicol have been reported. Two to ten percent of U. urealyticum strains are resistant to tetracyclines. These resistances are likely to be plasmid-mediated.

[Antibiotic sensitivity of the causative agents of suppurative surgical infection].

Sensitivity of 1492 strains of the causative agents of the surgical purulent infections, i. e. pathogenic Staphylococcus, Proteus, Ps. aeruginosa and E. coli to benzylpenicillin, streptomycin, levomycetin, tetracycline, erythromycin, oleandomycin, monomycin, kanamycin, novobiocin, ampicillin, oxacillin, ceporin, gentamicin and rifampicin was studied. Gentamicin was most active against all the bacterial species tested. The staphylococci were in addition sensitive in a high percentage of the cases to rifampicin, novobiocin, ceporin, monomycin and kanamycin. The isolates of E. coli were in addition sensitive to ceporin, monomycin and kanamycin. Sensitivity of the strains of Ps. aeruginosa and Proteus was low to all of the antibiotics except gentamycin. Most of the strains of the causative agents of the surgical purulent infections were multiresistant to 4 antibiotics. The number of the staphylococcal strains sensitive to benzylpenicillin, streptomycin and levomycetin increased in 1976 as compared to 1975 on the background of a limited use of these antibiotics in clinics.

Drug-sensitivity of El Tor vibrio strains isolated in the Philippines in 1964 and 1965.

About 1500 strains of El Tor vibrios, isolated in 1964 and 1965 in the Philippines, were examined for their susceptibilities to 17 drugs. All the strains tested were highly sensitive to dihydroxymethyl-furalazine, and most were highly sensitive to tetracycline hydrochloride, chloramphenicol and erythromycin, and moderately sensitive to novobiocin, dihydrostreptomycin sulfate, kanamycin and neomycin. They showed a remarkable fluctuation of sensitivity to ampicillin, cefaloridine, cefalotin and sulfafurazole, and a high resistance to benzylpenicillin sodium, oleandomycin and spiramycin.Experimental confirmation was provided of the fact that El Tor vibrios and non-agglutinable vibrios can be distinguished from classical cholera vibrios by their resistance to polymyxin B and colistin.Highly streptomycin-resistant strains, and to a lesser extent ampicillin- and sulfafurazole-resistant strains, were relatively often isolated from cholera patients who had been treated with antibiotics. One patient yielded a strain resistant to tetracycline, chloramphenicol, streptomycin and sulfafurazole.

In vitro sensitivities to antimicrobial drugs of ureaplasmas isolated from the bovine respiratory tract, genital tract and eye.

The sensitivity to 18 antimicrobial drugs was examined for 66 strains of Ureaplasma sp isolated from respiratory tracts of calves suffering from enzootic pneumonia, urinary tracts of bulls and eyes of cows suffering from infectious bovine kerato-conjunctivitis. Furamizole, tiamulin fumarate, erythromycin lactobionate, malidomycin C, doxycycline hydrochloride, kitasamycin tartrate, tylosin tartrate, T-2636C, tetracycline hydrochloride, oxytetracycline hydrochloride, chlortetracycline hydrochloride, oleandomycin phosphate, furazolidone, spiramycin adipate, chloramphenicol and thiophenicol showed strong inhibiting activity on all the test strains. Among them, furamizole, tiamulin fumarate and erythromycin lactobionate were most active. Kanamycin sulphate showed weak activity on all the strains tested. The differences in origin of the test strains did not affect their sensitivity to any of the drugs.

Antibiotic therapy of staphylococcal infections.

The antibiotic treatment of staphylococcal infections remains a problem. Isolation of the organism and sensitivity testing are necessary in the choice of antibiotic. Penicillin G is the most effective penicillin against non-penicillinase-producing staphy-lococci; for the penicillinase producers there is very little to choose between the semisynthetic penicillins, methicillin, cloxacillin, nafcillin and oxacillin. For patients who are hypersensitive to penicillin, the bacteriostatic drugs (erythromycin, novobiocin, tetracycline, chloramphenicol, oleandomycin) are useful for mild infections, while for more severe illness the bactericidal drugs (vancomycin, ristocetin, kanamycin, bacitracin, neomycin) have been used successfully. Acute staphylococcal enterocolitis is probably best treated by a semisynthetic penicillin. Other antibiotics which have been found useful, with clinical trials, for staphylococcal infections are cephalosporin, fucidin, cephaloridine and lincomycin. The latter drug has been reported of value in the treatment of osteomyelitis. There is little justification for the prophylactic use of antibiotics to prevent staphylococcal infection. Surgical drainage is still an important adjunct in the treatment of many staphylococcal infections.

Toads as reservoirs of salmonellae: prevalence and antibiogram.

Of 570 intestinal-content-samples of toads examined, 40 yielded salmonellae, which included 26 strains of S. goverdhan, 9 of S. bareilly, 2 of S. richmond, and 1 each of S. typhimurium, S. weltevreden and S. newport. From 52 visceral-organ samples, 6 strains of S. goverdhan and 1 of S. typhimurium were isolated. Antibiotic sensitivity studied against 18 chemotherapeutic agents, revealed that although the isolates were sensitive to most of the antibiotics, all of them were resistant to bacitracin, novobiocin and oleandomycin. To sulfonamides, erythromycin and pencillin, respectively, 42, 8 and 3 isolates were resistant.

[Resistance to antibiotics and heavy metal salts of coagulase-positive staphylococci belonging to different biological types (ecovars)].

A total of 189 strains of S. aureus isolated from cows, sheep, swines, poultry, monkeys, rabbits, foxes, and humans and 23 strains of S. intermedius isolated from minks and sables were studied. The staphylococci belonged to different biological types (according to the Hajek-Marsalek's scheme) and ecovars (according to the Meyer-Witte's scheme). The strains were studied with respect to their resistance to 10 antibiotics (benzylpenicillin, streptomycin, tetracycline, levomycetin, erythromycin, oleandomycin, neomycin, kanamycin, monomycin, and novobiocin), mercuric chloride and cadmium sulfate. As a whole the frequency of resistance to the above preparations among the staphylococci of the animal origin was not high. Differences in the frequency and range of the resistance between strains belonging to different biological types (ecovars) were shown. The highest number of the resistant cultures was detected among the strains of the biological type E (ecovar canis) and atypical strains of S. intermedius isolated from the minks. The least number of the resistant cultures was detected among the strains of the biological type C1 (ecovar bovis) isolated from the cows. It was found that almost all strains of S. intermedius were resistant to cadmium sulfate. This may be used as an additional characteristic of the species.

[Antibiotic sensitivity of Streptococcus pneumoniae strains isolated from the bronchial contents of patients with inflammatory lung diseases].

The study of the sensitivity of 2681 pneumococcal strains to antibiotics, carried out in 1976-1982, demonstrated that most of these strains circulating in Leningrad were sensitive to penicillin, levomycetin, erythromycin and oleandomycin. Penicillin-resistant pneumococcal strains were found to appear in 1980 and later showed a definite increase in number, reaching 4.4% of all strains in 1982. Simultaneously the appearance of levomycetin- and erythromycin-resistant strains and the increase of their relative significance were established. Most of the pneumococcal strains isolated in Leningrad were not sensitive to monomycin, streptomycin and tetracyclin.

Antimicrobial susceptibility and susceptibility testing of Mycoplasma hominis: a review.

The determination of the minimal growth-inhibiting concentration (MIC), the minimal metabolism-inhibiting concentration (MMC), and the minimal mycoplasmacidal concentration (MCC) of various antimicrobial compounds for Mycoplasma hominis is influenced by the pH of the test media, the inoculum size, and the incubation time, although each of these factors generally do not affect the minimal concentration more than fourfold. M. hominis is resistant to beta-lactam antibiotics, vancomycin, sulfonamides, trimethoprim, and polymyxin B. There are great differences in the susceptibility of M. hominis to various macrolide antibiotics. Thus the organism is resistant to erythromycin and oleandomycin, moderately resistant to tylosin and spiramycin, susceptible to josamycin as well as to another macrolide drug, labelled M-4365G. M. hominis is also highly susceptible to the macrolide-like compound rosaramicin and to the tetracyclines (although resistant strains occur). It is susceptible to lincomycin and clindamycin, and moderately susceptible to chloramphenicol and rifampicin. The aminoglycosides have limited activity against M. hominis.

[Comparative multicenter study of 2 methods of determining sensitivity to antibiotics. Gel diffusion method and semiautomatic method in fluid ABAC medium].

Susceptibility of 60 bacterial isolates to 15 antibiotics was determined by two methods in three laboratories: 48 Gram negative bacilli and 12 Staphylococci were selected because of "intermediate" susceptibility to at least one antibiotic. Results show a good correlation between the two methods: more than 90% for carbenicillin, cefazolin, cefoxitin, cefamandole, kanamycin, tobramycin, amikacin, erythromycin, pristinamycin and fusidic acid, between 80 and 90% for penicillin G, ampicillin, oxacillin, gentamicin, doxycycline, chloramphenicol, spiramycin and clindamycin, less than 80% for neomycin, tetracycline, minocycline and oleandomycin. Interpretation criteria are different in the two methods for rifampicin, colistin and cotrimoxazole. Between the three laboratories, correlation was 90,3% and 88,6% for disc diffusion method and ABAC system respectively.

[Drug resistance of coagulase-negative staphylococci of animal origin depending on the source of the isolation and species classification of the strains].

Drug resistance of 271 strains of coagulase negative staphylococci isolated mainly from the upper respiratory tract and skin of healthy animals (cows, sheep, swine, hen, monkey, mink, sable and fox) was studied. Benzylpenicillin, streptomycin, tetracycline, chloramphenicol, erythromycin, oleandomycin, neomycin, monomycin, kanamycin and novobiocin and heavy metal salts, such as mercurous chloride and cadmium sulfate were used in the study. Unlike coagulase positive staphylococci isolated from the same sources, the coagulase negative strains were more frequently resistant to novobiocin (a specific feature of a number of the strains) and tetracycline and much less frequently resistant to benzylpenicillin and streptomycin. The differences in the drug resistance of the coagulase negative staphylococci were more often associated with the species taxonomic position than with the source of their isolation. The highest number of the strains resistant to all the antibiotics tested except novobiocin belonged to Staph. epidermidis and the lowest number of the strains resistant to all the antibiotics tested except novobiocin belonged to Staph. xylosus, Staph. sciuri, Staph. simulans and Staph. hyicus.

[Evaluation of an automated procedure determining the minimum inhibitory concentrations (MIC). ].

The ABAC system allows to distribute simultaneously and automatically a standardized inoculum into microtube-cuvettes containing in lyophilized broth medium twofold serial dilutions of the antibiotics. After an 18 hours incubation time, The system prints automatically the MIC. We have compared the MIC of beta-lactam antibiotics (ampicillin, carbenicillin, cephalothin, cefoxitin, cefamandole, cefuroxime and cefotaxime) and 6 aminoglycoside (gentamicin, tobramycin, netilmycin, amikacin, kanamycin, lividomycin) obtained by the ABAC system and by the Agar dilution method for 302 gram negative bacilli. We also made a comparison of the MIC of 8 antibiotics (oxacillin, oleandomycin, spiramycin, erythromycin, clindamycin, pristinamycin, doxycycline, vancomycin) obtained by the 2 methods for 117 Staphylococcus aureus strains. The evaluation shows that the reproducibility of the results obtained by the ABAC system is good. The statistical analysis shows that the correlation between the MIC obtained with the 2 methods is excellent and that there is no significant discrepancy.
