  • Title: In-vitro activity of penicillin G plus sulbactam in comparison with other beta-lactamase inhibitor combinations and oxacillin against staphylococci.

    Journal: Zentralbl Bakteriol; 1996 Jul; 284(2-3):297-301. PubMed ID: 8837390.
    Abstract:
    The in-vitro activity of penicillin G in combination with the beta-lactamase inhibitor, sulbactam, against penicillin-sensitive S. aureus (n = 10) and penicillin-resistant, methicillin-sensitive S. aureus (n = 69) and S. epidermidis (n = 20) was tested in comparison with ampicillin/sulbactam, amoxicillin/clavulanic acid, piperacillin/tazobactam and oxacillin. The combination of penicillin G plus sulbactam was found to lead to MIC values for beta-lactamase producing staphylococci comparable to those for penicillin-sensitive staphylococci, with MIC90 values between < or = 0,03 mg/L and 0.06 mg/L.
