Antimicrobial susceptibility of bordetella pertussis (Part I)

Antibiotika-Empfindlichkeit von Bordetella pertussis

Infection volume 16, pages 126–130 (1988)Cite this article

Summary

In this review of the literature data are collected from the more recent studies on the susceptibility ofBordetella pertussis to penicillins, cephalosporins, other beta-lactam antibiotics, aminoglycosides, tetracyclines, erythromycin, josamycin, co-trimoxazole and various other antibiotics. The methods of susceptibility testing ofB. pertussis are discussed and suggestions for standardization are made.

Zusammenfassung

In dieser Literatur-Übersicht werden Daten aus neueren Arbeiten zusammengestellt über die Empfindlichkeit vonBordetella pertussis gegen Penicilline, Cephalosporine, andere Beta-Laktam-Antibiotika, Aminoglykoside, Tetrazykline, Erythromycin, Josamycin, Co-trimoxazol und verschiedene andere Antibiotika. Die Verfahren zur Empfindlichkeitstestung vonB. pertussis werden diskutiert, und es werden Vorschläge für eine Standardisierung gemacht.
