  • Title: [Influence of bacterial combinations on the post-antibiotic effect].
    Author: Mínguez F, Aparicio P, Lurueña S, Cabronero MJ, Prieto J.
    Journal: Enferm Infecc Microbiol Clin; 1990 Apr; 8(4):208-12. PubMed ID: 2090206.
    Abstract:
    A study of the post-antibiotic effect (PAE) and letality curves of different concentrations of clavulanic acid, amoxycillin, amoxycillin + clavulanic acid, netilmycin and ofloxacin on mixed cultures of S. aureus and E. coli. The post-antibiotic effect was measured after one hour of exposure of bacteria to antimicrobial and the elimination of the latter by the dilution method. Amoxycillin did not induce PAE on the association. PAE only appeared at high concentrations on S. aureus when evaluated alone. Clavulanic acid induced a greater PAE than amoxycillin. The association clavulanic acid + amoxycillin was synergistic and induced a greater PAE than its components. Netilmycin and ofloxacin were the drugs that induced the greatest PAE on the bacterial association and on its strains independently evaluated.
