In vitro susceptibility of Neisseria gonorrhoeae to 2-acetylpyridine thiosemicarbazones. 1985

B Christenson, and J R Rodríguez, and H F Gorbea, and C H Ramírez-Rond

MICs of 20 2-acetylpyridine thiosemicarbazones and penicillin were determined for 25 clinical isolates of beta-lactamase-positive and beta-lactamase-negative Neisseria gonorrhoeae strains. The compounds most active against the beta-lactamase-producing strains were the N4,N4-disubstituted derivatives and the thiosemicarbazone derivatives of the 2-acetylpyridines, followed by the other compounds related to the 2-acetylpyridine thiosemicarbazones.

D010406	Penicillins	A group of antibiotics that contain 6-aminopenicillanic acid with a side chain attached to the 6-amino group. The penicillin nucleus is the chief structural requirement for biological activity. The side-chain structure determines many of the antibacterial and pharmacological characteristics.
