Antibacterial effects of bovine lactoferrin were studied in vitro against microorganisms isolated from mastitic milk in Tokachi area, Hokkaido, Japan. Microorganisms isolated were Escherichia coli (11 isolates), Klebsiella pneumoniae (5 isolates), enterococci (8 isolates), Staphylococcus aureus (10 isolates), coagulase negative staphylococci (CNS, 13 isolates), streptococci (11 isolates), Prototheca zopfii (7 isolates) and yeast-like fungi (9 isolates). Lactoferrin has been known as a multifunctional protein and its antimicrobial effect is one of the most essential function of it. In order to compare their susceptibilities against lactoferrin, the minimal inhibitory concentration values were estimated by a microplate assay method using 96-well microplate, which involved measuring the optical density of the cultures. Prototheca zopfii was highly sensitive to bovine lactoferrin and complete inhibition of this microorganism was observed even at the low concentration of 7 mug/ml. On the other hand, E. coli and enterococci showed resistance against lactoferrin action and staphylococci showed strain-dependent resistance. 相似文献

The antibacterial activity of milk against a virulent strain of Escherichia coli was investigated using milk fractions from normal or inflamed glands. Mastitic whey exhibited either bactericidal or bacteriostatic activities, depending on whether bacteria were enumerated by the pour plate technique or by surface plating onto sheep blood agar. The former activity was not due to lactoferrin (Lf), which never exerted bactericidal activity, even when assayed in distilled water. Milk whey ultrafiltrate (UF) (mol. wt. less than 5000 d) was used to assay the ability of normal and mastitic milk to support the antibacterial activities of Lf against a strain of E. coli. The addition of purified Lf to UF from mastitic whey resulted in bacteriostasis, whereas Lf was without effect in UF from normal whey. It was concluded that Lf can actually slow down the growth of Lf-sensitive bacteria during mastitis, provided that plasma exudation takes place. 相似文献

The growth of Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli was followed in bovine whey samples which had been prepared from milk previously incubated with cultures of S. aureus or E. coli. Staphylococcal strains were divided into 2 groups according to their ability to form compact or diffuse colonies on serum soft agar, which is related to the absence or presence of capsule respectively. The growth of compact staphylococci was dependent on the bulk tank milk used whereas diffuse colony forming staphylococci grew equally well in all bulk milk, also in all inoculated milk. The growth of E. coli was markedly enhanced in whey samples prepared from milk preincubated with staphylococci. However, clear growth inhibition was seen with E. coli and S. aureus strains when grown in whey prepared from milk preincubated with E. coli. Results indicate that the growth promotion of pathogens due to compositional changes in milk are of importance during the course of infection because the growth pattern on staphylococci is dependent on these compositional changes. The growth-inhibitory effects caused by E. coli may explain difficulties in isolating this organism. 相似文献

OBJECTIVE: A silver chloride-coated nylon wound dressing (Ag-WD) was evaluated in vitro for antimicrobial activity against five common equine wound pathogens. STUDY DESIGN: Bacterial susceptibility study. SAMPLE POPULATION: Equine wound pathogens: Escherichia coli, Klebsiella pneumoniae, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Streptococcus equi subspecies zooepidemicus, and Staphylococcus aureus. METHODS: An inoculum of each pathogen was incubated directly with Ag-WD and quantitated after 24 to 48 hours of incubation. To determine if bactericidal activity of Ag-WD was contact dependent, an inoculum of E. coli and Staphylococcus aureus was incubated separately from Ag-WD by a filter and quantitated after 18 hours of incubation. Inductively coupled plasma emission spectrometry (ICP) determined the silver concentration of Mueller-Hinton broth containing Ag-WD after 24 hours of incubation. To establish if the rate of bacterial killing by Ag-WD differed from a constant silver concentration, pathogens were exposed to a silver concentration of 6.45 microg/mL and quantitated after 18 hours. RESULTS: Direct exposure to Ag-WD significantly reduced bacterial numbers after 15 minutes for K. pneumoniae, 30 minutes for E. coli, 1 hour for P. aeruginosa, and 2 hours for S. equi subspecies zooepidemicus and Staphylococcus aureus. Indirect exposure to Ag-WD resulted in > or =99.9% and > or =90% kill of the inoculum doses of E. coli at 2 hours and Staphylococcus aureus at 18 hours, respectively. Incubation of the pathogens at the constant silver concentration resulted in bacterial killing rates similar to those obtained by incubation with Ag-WD. CONCLUSIONS: In vitro, equine pathogens are effectively killed when exposed to Ag-WD, and the rate of bacterial killing by Ag-WD is similar to a constant silver concentration of 6.45 microg/mL. CLINICAL RELEVANCE: The in vitro antimicrobial properties of this silver-coated nylon wound dressing are promising for future prevention of equine wound infections. 相似文献

In vitro susceptibility of avian Escherichia coli and Pasteurella multocida to danofloxacin and five other antimicrobials. 总被引：4，自引：0，他引：4
The in vitro susceptibility of Escherichia coli and Pasteurella multocida isolated from poultry was determined to danofloxacin, a novel fluoroquinolone, and five other commonly used antimicrobials. A total of 1737 E. coli field isolates and 107 P. multocida isolates were tested by veterinary diagnostic laboratories in Europe, Japan, South Africa, and North America during the period 1989-91. The antimicrobial susceptibility of these isolates was determined using the Sensititre broth microdilution technique. The minimum inhibitory concentrations (MIC) of danofloxacin, furaltadone, lincomycin, oxytetracycline, spectinomycin, and trimethoprim:sulfamethoxazole that prevented growth of 90% of the bacteria were 0.25 > 64, > 64, > 64, > 128, and > 16 micrograms/ml, respectively, against E. coli isolates and 0.25, 64, 64, 16, 128, and 8 micrograms/ml, respectively, against P. multocida isolates. Danofloxacin demonstrated considerable in vitro potency against these important poultry pathogens, many of which showed extensive resistance to the other antimicrobials tested. 相似文献

EFFECT OF SODIUM DIATRIZOATE ON THE IN VITRO GROWTH OF THREE COMMON CANINE URINARY BACTERIAL SPECIES
Annette L. Ruby BA Gerald V. Ling DVM Norman Ackerman DVM 《Veterinary radiology & ultrasound》1983,24(5):222-225
The mean concentration of diatrizoate in urine specimens of eight dogs collected 20 minutes after intravenous injection of 2.2 ml/kg of sodium and meglumine diatrizoate (iodine concentration, 288 mg/ml) was 80 mg/ml (iodine concentration, 48 mg/ml). The mean concentration plus 1 SD was 111 mg/ml (iodine concentration, 66 mg/ml), and the mean concentration plus 2 SD was 142 mg/ml (iodine concentration, 85 mg/ml). The presence of diatrizoate at a concentration of 142 mg/ml did not inhibit in vitro bacterial growth of any of ten randomly selected canine urinary isolates of Escherichia coli or any of ten randomly selected urinary isolates of Staphylococcus aureus. In vitro bacterial growth of all ten randomly selected urinary bacterial isolates of Proteus mirabilis was significantly inhibited by a diatrizoate concentration of 80 mg/ml. Bacterial growth was progressively inhibited by increased diatrizoate concentrations. 相似文献

Gram-negative bacteria are responsible for approximately one-third of the clinical cases of bovine mastitis and can elicit a life-threatening, systemic inflammatory response. Lipopolysaccharide (LPS) is a membrane component of Gram-negative bacteria and is largely responsible for evoking the inflammatory response. Antibiotic and anti-inflammatory therapy for treating Gram-negative infections remains suboptimal. Bactericidal/permeability-increasing protein (BPI) is a neutrophil-derived protein with antimicrobial and LPS-neutralizing properties. Select peptide derivatives of BPI are reported to retain these properties. The objective of this study was to evaluate the antimicrobial activity of a human BPI-derived synthetic peptide against clinical bovine mastitis isolates of Gram-negative bacteria. A hybrid peptide was synthesized corresponding to two regions of human BPI (amino acids 90-99 and 148-161), the former of which has bactericidal activity and the latter of which has LPS-neutralizing activity. The minimum inhibitory (MIC) and bactericidal (MBC) concentrations of this peptide against various genera of bacteria were determined using a broth microdilution assay. The MIC's were determined to be: 16-64 microg/ml against Escherichia coli; 32-128 microg/ml against Klebsiella pneumoniae and Enterobacter spp.; and 64-256 microg/ml against Pseudomonas aeruginosa. The MBC's were equivalent to or 1-fold greater than corresponding MIC's. The peptide had no growth inhibitory effect on Serratia marcescens. The antimicrobial activity of the peptide was retained in the presence of serum, but severely impaired in milk. Further functional evaluation of the peptide demonstrated its ability to completely neutralize LPS. Together, these data support additional investigations into the therapeutic application of BPI to the treatment of Gram-negative infections in cattle. 相似文献

传统中药五倍子(Galla chinensis, GC)被证明具有较好的抑菌效果,但其抑菌活性与活性成分之间的关联性不够明确。本研究采用大孔树脂从GC水提物(water extracts of GC, GCE)中分离五倍子单宁(gallotannins, GT)并收集大孔树脂脱GT后的剩余物(GTrE)；高效液相色谱法用于测定GCE中没食子酸(gallic acid, GA)和没食子酸甲酯(methyl gallate, MG)含量；然后通过最小抑菌浓度(minimum inhibitory concentration, MIC)法比较了GCE与其活性成分对耐药大肠杆菌(E. coli)和金黄色葡萄球菌(S. aureus)的抑菌活性,分析了活性成分含量与五倍子抑菌活性的关联性。结果表明,GCE对耐药E. coli和S. aureus具有显著的抑制作用。GT和GTrE与GCE的抑菌作用类似,两者在GCE中的含量分别为58.3%和22.8%,联合使用多呈现相加作用,对不同E. coli菌株的MIC范围为5-20 mg/mL；对不同S. aureus菌株的MIC范围为0.156-0.625 mg/mL。这提示GCE、GT和GTrE对S. aureus抑制的选择性更强。GA对上述两种菌的MIC范围为5-10 mg/mL,MG则为1.25-2.5 mg/mL,但GA和MG在GCE中的含量较低,分别为3.1665%和0.0899%。以上结果表明GCE具有显著的抑菌活性,GA和MG与其抑菌作用相似,但两者在GCE中的浓度远远低于它们的MICs。故推测含量较高的GT和GTrE或者未知组分的联合可能是五倍子发挥抑菌活性的主要成分。 相似文献

After IV, IM, and subcutaneous injection of single dosages of amikacin (5, 10, and 20 mg/kg of body weight) in each of 4 dogs, the elimination kinetics of amikacin were determined. The pattern of urinary excretion and cumulative amount excreted unchanged in 24 hours were also determined. Amikacin had a short half-life (approx 1 hour) that was independent of the dosage. Intravenous injection of 10 mg/kg gave apparent volume of distribution of 226 +/- 37 ml/kg and body clearance of 2.64 +/- 0.24 ml/min.kg (mean +/- SD, n = 4). Within 6 hours, greater than 90% of the antibiotic was excreted in the urine, regardless of the route of administration. For isolates of common bacterial species from the canine urinary tract, minimum inhibitory concentrations of amikacin, gentamicin, tobramycin, and kanamycin were determined in vitro. Cumulative percentages were approximately the same for urinary isolates of Escherichia coli, Proteus mirabilis, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, and coagulase-positive staphylococci that were susceptible (minimum inhibitory concentrations less than or equal to 32 micrograms/ml) to increasing concentrations of amikacin, gentamicin, and tobramycin, in vitro. Klebsiella pneumoniae was significantly more susceptible to amikacin than were the other bacteria evaluated. Widest variations in susceptibility to aminoglycosides were found with urinary isolates of streptococcal species. For dogs with normal renal function, an amikacin dosage of 10 mg/kg (IM or subcutaneously) is recommended every 8 hours for treatment of systemic infections, and every 12 hours for treatment of urinary tract infections caused by susceptible bacteria. 相似文献

The in vitro activity of difloxacin against canine bacterial isolates from clinical cases was studied in the United States and The Netherlands. Minimal inhibitory concentrations (MIC), the postantibiotic effect, the effect of pH on antimicrobial activity, and the bacterial killing rate tests were determined according to standard techniques. The MICs of American and Dutch isolates agreed in general. The MICs of the American gram-negative isolates ranged from 0.06 to 2.0 microg/ml, and the MICs of the Dutch gram-negative isolates ranged from 0.016 to 8.0 microg/ml. A few European strains of Proteus mirabilis and Klebsiella pneumoniae had relatively high MICs. Bordetella bronchiseptica also was less susceptible to difloxacin. The MICs of the American gram-positive cocci ranged from 0.125 to 4.0 microg/ml, and the MICs of Dutch isolates ranged from 0.125 to 2.0 microg/ ml. Difloxacin induced a concentration-dependent postantibiotic effect that lasted 0.2-3 hours in cultures with Escherichia coli, Staphylococcus intermedius, Streptococcus canis, Proteus spp., and Klebsiella pneumoniae. There was no postantibiotic effect observed against canine Pseudomonas aeruginosa. Decreasing the pH of the medium increased the MIC of Proteus mirabilis for difloxacin. The MICs of Escherichia coli and Klebsiella pneumoniae were lowest at neutral pH and were slightly increased in acid or alkaline media. At a neutral pH, most tested bacterial species were killed at a difloxacin concentration of 4 times the MIC. Similar results were obtained when these same bacteria were tested against enrofloxacin. A Klebsiella pneumoniae strain in an acidic environment was readily killed at difloxacin or enrofloxacin MIC, but at neutral pH the drug concentration had to be raised to 4 times the MIC for a bactericidal effect. After 24 hours of incubation at pH 7.1, difloxacin and enrofloxacin had similar bactericidal activity for all bacteria tested except Staphylococcus intermedius. Against S. intermedius, difloxacin was more bactericidal than enrofloxacin. 相似文献

OBJECTIVE: To determine the plasma pharmacokinetics of imipenem (5 mg/kg) after single-dose IV, IM, and SC administrations in dogs and assess the ability of plasma samples to inhibit the growth of Escherichia coli in vitro. ANIMALS: 6 adult dogs. PROCEDURE: A 3-way crossover design was used. Plasma concentrations of imipenem were measured after IV, IM, and SC administration by use of high-performance liquid chromatography. An agar well antimicrobial assay was performed with 3 E coli isolates that included a reference strain and 2 multidrug-resistant clinical isolates. RESULTS: Plasma concentrations of imipenem remained above the reported minimum inhibitory concentration for E coli (0.06 to 0.25 microg/mL) for a minimum of 4 hours after IV, IM, and SC injections. Harmonic mean and pseudo-standard deviation half-life of imipenem was 0.80 +/- 0.23, 0.92 +/- 0.33, and 1.54 +/- 1.02 hours after IV, IM, and SC administration, respectively. Maximum plasma concentrations (Cmax) of imipenem after IM and SC administration were 13.2 +/- 4.06 and 8.8 +/- 1.7 mg/L, respectively. Time elapsed from drug administration until Cmax was 0.50 +/- 0.16 hours after IM and 0.83 +/- 0.13 hours after SC injection. Growth of all 3 E coli isolates was inhibited in the agar well antimicrobial assay for 2 hours after imipenem administration by all routes. CONCLUSIONS AND CLINICAL RELEVANCE: Imipenem is rapidly and completely absorbed from intramuscular and subcutaneous tissues and effectively inhibits in vitro growth of certain multidrug-resistant clinical isolates of E coli. 相似文献

The outcome of E. coli mastitis in cows ranges from mild to severe in individual animals. This study explored the hypothesis that milk from individual cows differs in its growth medium properties for E. coli, and whether possible variation could be related to specific milk constituents. To mimic the early phase of intramammary E. coli infection, a low inoculum size and a short incubation period were used. Cell-reduced, cell- and fat-free (skim) and cell- and fat-free and protein-reduced (whey) fractions were prepared from whole milk samples (n=18). Ten ml of whole milk, milk fractions and brain heart infusion broth (BHI) were inoculated with approximately 100cfu E. coli. After 6h of incubation, bacterial counts were assessed by dilution plating in triplicate. Bacterial counts in whole milk differed up to a 100-fold between cows, which was not associated with SCC. Bacterial counts were significantly higher in whey fractions than in whole milk, cell-reduced and skim fractions and variation in whey was smaller, indicating that the acid-precipitable protein fraction contains the milk constituents of major relevance for inhibition of and variation in bacterial growth. The presence of fat and cells added to bacterial growth inhibition to a lesser extent. In conclusion, in vitro growth of E. coli in milk differs substantially between individual cows within an incubation period comparable with the early phase of intramammary infection. This suggests that the growth medium properties of milk could be of importance in the pathogenesis of E. coli mastitis and subsequent outcome of disease. 相似文献

Peltophorum africanum (Fabaceae) is a deciduous tree widespread in southern Africa. The plant has many ethnomedical and ethnoveterinary uses. Root and bark decoctions are used to treat diarrhoea, dysentery, sore throat, wounds, back and joint pains, HIV-AIDS, venereal diseases and infertility. Pastoralists and rural farmers use the root and bark extracts to treat diarrhoea, dysentery, infertility, and to promote well-being and resistance to diseases in cattle. To evaluate these ethnobotanical leads, dried leaves, stem bark and root bark were extracted with ethanol, acetone, dichloromethane and hexane. Polyphenols in the extract were determined by the Folin-Ciocalteu method with gallic acid as standard. Qualitative antioxidant activity was screened by spraying thin layer chromatograms (TLC) of the extracts with 0.2% 1,1-diphenyl-2-picryl hydrazyl (DPPH), and quantified with Trolox equivalent antioxidant capacity (TEAC) assay. Minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) and total antibacterial activity (TAA) were determined by serial microplate dilution for Staphylococcus aureus, Escherichia coli, Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Enterococcus faecalis, with gentamicin as standard and tetrazolium violet as growth indicator. Acetone and ethanol extracted the largest quantity of material. Polyphenols concentration was 49.2% in acetone extract of the root and 3.8% in dichloromethane extract of the leaf. Antioxidant activity of at least 5 antioxidant compounds as measured by TEAC ranged from 1.34 (ethanol extract of the root) to 0.01 (hexane extract of the leaf). The total antibacterial activity (volume to which active compounds present in 1 g plant material can be diluted and still inhibit bacterial growth) was 1263 ml/g for ethanol extract of the root against S. aureus, and 800 ml/g for acetone extract of the root against P. aeruginosa. There was substantial activity against both Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria, with MIC values of 0.08 mg/ml for S. aureus and 0.16 mg/ml for P. aeruginosa. There is therefore a rationale for the traditional use of root and bark of P. africanum in treating bacterial infection related diseases. 相似文献

A survey was carried out to describe the normal aerobic bacterial flora of the conjunctiva and nasal cavity of captive houbara bustards (Chlamydotis undulata), kori bustards (Ardeotis kori), and white-bellied bustards (Eupodotis senegalensis) maintained at the National Avian Research Center, Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates. A total of 58 samples were examined from the nasal cavity and 55 samples from the conjunctiva of healthy bustards. There was no bacterial growth in 45% of conjunctival samples. Bacteria isolated from the conjunctiva of healthy birds included Micrococcus spp., Staphylococcus auricularis, Staphylococcus xylosus, Staphylococcus capitis, Staphylococcus warneri, Bacillus spp., and Enterobacter amigenus. Bacteria isolated from the nasal cavity of healthy birds included Bacillus spp., Micrococcus spp., S. auricularis, S. xylosus, Staphylococcus simulans, Staphylococcus saprophyticus, Staphylococcus hyicus, Staphylococcus cohnii, Staphylococcus sciuri, Aerococcus spp., and Providencia rettgeri. These findings were compared with bacterial isolates from bustards with clinical signs of ocular or upper respiratory tract diseases. Mycoplasma spp., Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Pseudomonas stutzeri, Proteus mirabilis, Escherichia coli, Klebsiella spp., Aeromonas hydrophila, and Staphylococcus aureus were the pathogenic bacteria isolated from the conjunctiva of 34.3% bustards with ocular discharges. Mycoplasma spp., P. aeruginosa, Pseudomonas spp., P. mirabilis, E. coli, Klebsiella pneumoniae, and S. aureus were the pathogenic bacteria isolated from the nasal cavity of 74% bustards with upper respiratory tract diseases. 相似文献

Growth of Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus was analyzed by turbidometry in 456 selected whey samples. The samples had been graded mastitic or nonmastitic as determined by antitrypsin assay and bacteriologic examination. Whey samples from inflamed quarters (antitrypsin increased) and infected quarters significantly promoted bacterial growth as compared with whey samples from control quarters. The growth-stimulatory effect was limited to the diseased quarters, since control quarters from the same animals did not support enhanced bacterial growth. The observations indicate that in chronic mastitis, the inflammatory process leads to changes in the whey that promote bacterial growth in vitro. 相似文献

A 31-year record-based retrospective study was carried out to determine the aetiology and temporal distribution of bovine clinical mastitis in smallholder dairy herds in the Dar es Salaam region of Tanzania over the period November 1971-December 2002. Laboratory information on 1964 quarter samples from 1365 cows in 281 smallholder dairy herds were retrieved, compiled and studied. Eighty-eight percent of the quarter samples were culture-positive and the predominant mastitis pathogens isolated were Staphylococcus aureus (25.7%), Streptococcus agalactiae (15.4%), Klebsiella pneumoniae (14.3%) and Escherichia coli (14.1%). Other isolates included Pseudomonas aeruginosa (7.5%), Streptococcus dysgalactiae (5.2%) and Streptococcus uberis (4.2%). Contagious mastitis pathogens were isolated from 45.6% of the culture-positive samples, whereas environmental and miscellaneous pathogens were isolated from 48.2% and 5.7%, respectively. Thirty percent of the miscellaneous mastitis pathogens were Candida species. The results demonstrate a steady increase in clinical Candida albicans mastitis. The prevalence of Candida albicans has increased from 1% in 1971 to 17.0% in November 2002. Conversely, despite some fluctuations, the prevalence of Staphylococcus aureus, Streptococcus agalactiae, E. coli and K. pneumoniae remain above 10%. The possible risk factors for these observations are discussed. 相似文献
