Vancomycin should be used as the antibiotic of choice for the treatment of C. striatum infections, in monotherapy or in combination with piperacillin-tazobactam. Alternatively, linezolid, teicoplanin or daptomycin may be used in severe infections, while amoxicillin-clavulanate may be used to treat mild infections caused by C. striatum.

The antibiotics that we tested belong to nine different classes and they are the most commonly used treatment options for Corynebacterium spp. infections (penicillins, cephalosporins, macrolides, aminoglycosides, phenicols, quinolones, …

The susceptibilities of 265 strains of Corynebacterium species and other non-spore-forming gram-positive bacilli to 18 antimicrobial agents were tested. Most strains were susceptible to vancomycin, doxycycline, and fusidic acid.

2024年6月8日 · Other occasional human pathogens: often afflicting hospitalized/immunocompromised patients; organisms typically with significant antibiotic-resistance profiles. C. amycolatum: may be under-recognized as frequently misidentified as C. jeikeium or C. urealyticum.

2021年6月18日 · Vancomycin should be used as the antibiotic of choice for the treatment of C. striatum infections, in monotherapy or in combination with piperacillin-tazobactam. Alternatively, linezolid, teicoplanin or daptomycin may be used in severe infections, while amoxicillin-clavulanate may be used to treat mild infections caused by C. striatum.

2024年7月20日 · Explore the pathogenesis, diagnosis, and treatment options for Corynebacterium UTIs, including antibiotic resistance challenges. Urinary tract infections (UTIs) are common health complications affecting millions worldwide, often caused by various bacterial pathogens.

Antibiotics are the treatment of choice for nondiphtherial corynebacteria infections. Many species and groups are sensitive to various antibiotics, including penicillins, macrolide...

2023年6月22日 · Diphtheria is an infectious disease caused by the gram-positive bacillus Corynebacterium diphtheriae. Infection may lead to respiratory disease, cutaneous disease, or an asymptomatic carrier state. The word diphtheria comes from the Greek word for leather, which refers to the tough pharyngeal membrane that is the clinical hallmark of infection .

2018年3月27日 · This study presents the in vitro susceptibility profiles of 1,970 isolates of non-diphtheriae Corynebacterium species to 19 different antibiotics that were tested at the Public Health Ontario Laboratory (PHOL; Ontario, Canada) from 2011 to 2016.

The majority of C. urealyticum strains are highly resistant to a large number of antibiotics, including aminoglycosides, B-lactams, and macrolides although teicoplanin and vancomycin remain universally active against these isolates. 3. C. urealyticum can be considered an underestimated cause of sepsis among hospitalized patients.
