Abstract

Four identification tests, proposed in addition to conventional methods, were evaluated with 320 fermentative nonlipophilic Corynebacterium strains: growth at 20°C, glucose fermentation at 42°C, alkalinization of sodium formate, and acid production from ethylene glycol. These tests were highly discriminant. Corynebacterium amycolatum displayed a unique profile, allowing it to be distinguished from similar species, such as C. xerosis , C. striatum , and C. minutissimum.

Abstract

Dans cette etude, un total de 154 souches de Streptococcus pneumoniae provenant de 8 centres differents dans la Province d'Hainaut a ete evalue en ce qui concerne la sensibilite pour la penicilline, l'amoxicilline, la cefuroxime, la ciprofloxacine, la moxifloxacine, l'erythromycine et la tetracycline. La sensibilite a ete determinee par une technique de microdilution d'apres les criteres de NCCLS. Le taux global de sensibilite diminuee a la penicilline etait de 32.5% (23.4% de souches intermediaires et 9.1% de souches resistantes). Le taux global de sensibilite diminuee pour les autres antibiotiques etait : amoxicilline 1.9% [0 % Resistance (R)], cefuroxime 23.4% (R 22.1%), ciprofloxacine 9.1 % (R 1.3%), erythromycine 39.6% (R 38.3%) et tetracycline 31.8% (R 30.5%). Pour la moxifloxacine, une sensibilite diminuee n'etait pas detectee. Les CMI de l'amoxicilline, cefuroxime, erythromycine et tetracycline augmentaient avec celles de la penicilline pour les souches avec une sensibilite diminuee pour la penicilline. La plupart des souches avec une sensibilite diminuee pour la penicilline restait sensible a l'amoxicilline (94%) tandis que la moxifloxacine et la ciprofloxacine gardaient leur activite respectivement sur 100% et 92% de ces souches. Les souches avec une sensibilite diminuee pour la penicilline etaient 36,7%, 30.0% et 3,3% co-insensibles pour respectivement l'erythromycine, la tetracycline et la ciprofloxacine.

Abstract

A total of 154 isolates of Streptococcus pneumoniae obtained from 8 different centres in the province of Hainaut were included in this study. The susceptibilities to penicillin, amoxicillin, cefuroxime, ciprofloxacin, moxifloxacin, erythromycin and tetracycline were determined by a microdilution technique following NCCLS recommendations. Decreased susceptibility to penicillin was 32.5% (23.4% intermediate and 9.1% high-level). The other insusceptibility rates were as follows: amoxicillin 1.9% [0% Resistance (R)], cefuroxime 23.4% (R 22.1%), ciprofloxacin 9.1% (R 1.3%), erythromycin 39.6% (R 38.3%), and tetracycline 31.8% (R 30.5%). No decreased susceptibility was found for moxifloxacin. MICs of amoxicillin, cefuroxime, erythromycin and tetracycline rose with those of penicillin for penicillin-insusceptible isolates. Most penicillin-insusceptible isolates remained fully susceptible to amoxicillin (94%), while moxifloxacin and ciprofloxacin kept an activity on 100% and 92% of these isolates respectively. Phenotypes with triple or quadruple insusceptibility were present in 31.2% of the isolates. Penicillin-insusceptible isolates showed a co-insusceptibility of 36.7% to erythromycin, 30.0% to tetracycline and 3.3% to ciprofloxacin.
