In vitro activity of sulbactam/ampicillin against ampicillin-resistant, beta-lactamase-producing bacteria isolated in Italian hospitals.

abstract：:Niridazole was shown to be an effective chemotherapeutic agent for mice infected intravenously with a niridazole-sensitive strain of Salmonella typhimurium. Death rates as well as bacterial counts per spleen were reduced, even in compromised animals. Histologic examination of spleens proved the reduction of inflammato...
