MIC quality control guidelines for Haemophilus susceptibility tests using cefdinir (FK482), cefepime, cefetamet, cefpirome, ceftibuten, fleroxacin, temafloxacin, clarithromycin, RP59500, and trospectomycin.
    Journal of clinical microbiology, 1992, Volume: 30, Issue:1

    A multilaboratory study was performed to establish broth microdilution MIC quality control (QC) guidelines for 10 investigational drugs which previously demonstrated significant activity against Haemophilus influenzae. MIC QC ranges for H. influenzae ATCC 49247 with Haemophilus test medium were determined by using multiple contemporary lots of Haemophilus test medium and the National Committee for Clinical Laboratory Standards' recommended numbers of replicate tests. On the basis of these results, QC ranges (generally modal MIC +/- one log2 dilution) are proposed for cefdinir, cefepime, cefetamet, cefpirome, ceftibuten, fleroxacin, temafloxacin, clarithromycin, RP59500, and trospectomycin. The proposed QC guidelines for clarithromycin and temafloxacin were recently accepted by the National Committee for Clinical Laboratory Standards.

Susceptibilities of penicillin-susceptible and -resistant strains of Streptococcus pneumoniae to RP 59500, vancomycin, erythromycin, PD 131628, sparfloxacin, temafloxacin, win 57273, ofloxacin, and ciprofloxacin.

    The MICs of four new quinolones, sparfloxacin (AT-4140, CI-978), PD 131628 (the active form of the prodrug CI-990), temafloxacin, and Win 57273, compared with those of ciprofloxacin and ofloxacin were tested against 53 penicillin-susceptible, 35 penicillin intermediate-resistant, and 51 penicillin-resistant pneumococci. Susceptibility to RP 59500, a new streptogramin, was also tested and compared with those to the quinolones, erythromycin, and vancomycin. All MICs were determined by a standardized agar dilution method by using Mueller-Hinton agar supplemented with sheep blood. Quinolone, vancomycin, and RP 59500 susceptibilities were not affected by susceptibility or resistance to penicillin. For Win 57273, the MICs for 50% (MIC50) and 90% (MIC90) of strains tested were 0.015 and 0.03 micrograms/ml, respectively. MIC50S of both sparfloxacin and PD 131628 were 0.25 micrograms/ml, and MIC90S were 0.5 micrograms/ml. The MIC50 of temafloxacin was 0.5 micrograms/ml, and the MIC90 was 1.0 micrograms/ml. By comparison, ofloxacin and ciprofloxacin both yielded MIC50S of 1.0 micrograms/ml and MIC90s of 2.0 micrograms/ml. RP 59500 yielded an MIC50 of 0.5 microgram/ml and an MIC90 of 1.0 microgram/ml and was only 1 doubling dilution less active against 17 erythromycin-resistant strains. Vancomycin was active against all strains (MIC50, 0.25 microgram/ml; MIC90, 0.5 microgram/ml). All four experimental quinolones as well as RP 59500 show promise for therapy of infections with penicillin-resistant and -susceptible pneumococci.
