    Notes: Abstract A total of 154Enterococcus faecium and 48Enterococcus faecalis isolates, 55 % of which were ampicillin-resistant, were used to evaluate two commonly used automated systems, Vitek's GPS-TA card (bioMérieux, USA) and MicroScan's POS MIC Type 6 panel (Baxter Healthcare, USA), and the NCCLS disk diffusion method for the detection of ampicillin resistance. MicroScan panels were read by the Walk/Away system and by visual inspection. The results were as follows: disk diffusion, 100 % sensitive and specific; Vitek, 100 % sensitive and 95 % specific; and MicroScan, when read by the Walk/Away, 85 % sensitive and 98 % specific. When MicroScan was interpreted by visual inspection, however, sensitivity increased to 96 %.

    Comparative in vitro activity of cefdinir (CI-983; FK-482) against staphylococci, gram-negative bacilli and respiratory tract pathogens (1992)

    Notes: Abstract The in vitro activity of cefdinir (CI-983; FK-482), a new oral cephalosporin, was compared with that of other antimicrobial agents against clinical isolates of staphylocci, gram-negative bacilli and common respiratory tract pathogens. Cefdinir (MIC90 ≤ 2.0 µg/ml) was more active than cefixime (MIC90 〉64 µg/ml) and equally as active as cefuroxime (MIC90 2.0 µg/ml) against oxacillin-susceptible staphylococci. Cefdinir was active againstHaemophilus influenzae, including β-lactamase producers (MIC90 0.5 µg/ml),Moraxella catarrhalis (MIC90 ≤ 0.12 µg/ml),Streptococcus pneumoniae (MIC90 ≤ 0.06 µg/ml) andStreptococcus pyogenes (MIC90 ≤ 0.06 µg/ml). The activity of cefdinir against gram-negative bacilli was variable; organisms with chromosomal cephalosporinases were often resistant.

    Comparison of four stains and a urease test for rapid detection ofHelicobacter pylori in gastric biopsies (1990)
    Springer
    European journal of clinical microbiology & infectious diseases 9 (1990), S. 350-352

    Notes: Abstract Gastric biopsies were obtained from 125 subjects to compare detection ofHelicobacter pylori by culture, a rapid urease test and histopathologic examination using haematoxylin-eosin, Gram, Giemsa, Warthin-Starry silver and acridine orange stains.Helicobacter pylori was isolated from 39 specimens. Acridine orange and Giemsa were the most sensitive stains, detecting 85 % and 79 % of positive specimens respectively. All stains showed high specificity (97–100 %). The sensitivity and specificity of the rapid urease test was 62 % and 100 % respectively. These stains or the rapid urease test may be useful for rapid detection ofHelicobacter pylori in gastric biopsies.
