荧光原位杂交技术分析人结肠菌群方法研究

建立荧光原位杂交技术分析人体内结肠菌群的方法。取受试者新鲜粪便 ,选用 5种特异性的 16SrRNA寡核苷酸探针 ,检测粪便样本收集后的保存时间、温度 ,离心条件及样本固定液存放时间对杂交计数结果的影响。结果建立最佳实验条件为 :粪便样本收集后应尽快在 4℃下保存 ,放置时间不要超过 12小时即作处理 ;样本的适宜离心条件为 70 0g 2分钟 ;样本用多聚甲醛固定后在 - 80℃下存放时间不要超过 5个月。该方法具有较好的稳定性 ,可以有效地检出个体之间结肠菌群的差异。     

In vitro activity of ceftriaxone and other cephalosporins against 602 clinical isolates of staphylococci from geographically diverse medical centers

The in vitro activity of ceftriaxone and six additional antimicrobial agents (ceftizoxime, cefoperazone, cefuroxime, fleroxacin, ciprofloxacin, and trimethoprim/sulfamethoxazole) was assessed or 602 recent clinical isolates of staphylococci from six geographically distinct medical centers in North America. All seven antimicrobial agents were active (90–100% of strains susceptible) against oxacillin-susceptible (OS) strains of Staphylococcus aureus (OSSA) and coagulase-negative staphylococci (OSCNS) but had limited activity against oxacillin resistant (OR) staphylococci. Our assessment of the in vitro antistaphylococcal activity of ceftriaxone against contemporary isolates of Staphylococcus aureus and coagulase-negative staphylococci indicates that the activity versus OS staphylococci has not changed over the past decade despite widespread use of the drug. It appears that these agents will continue to be useful for empiric therapy in those centers in which OR strains are uncommon.Corresponding author.
