Trimethoprim has a broad spectrum of antimicrobial activity. It is 20-100 times more active than sulfamethoxazole with respect to most bacterial forms. Trimethoprim is active with respect to Gram-positive, aerobic bacteria such as Staphylococcus aureus, Staphylococcus epidermidis, and various types of Streptococcus and Listeria monocytogenes. Trimethoprim is inferior to sulfonamides against forms of Nocardia. It is active...

Cephalosporins and cephamycins are similar to penicillins chemically, in mechanism of action, and in toxicity. Cephalosporins are more stable than penicillins to many bacterial G-lactamases and therefore usually have a broader spectrum of activity. Cephalosporins are not active against enterococci and Listeria monocytogenes.

The essential oil of cumin exhibits strong antimicrobial activity against Escherichia coli, Staphylococcus aureus and Listeria monocytogenes. Complete death time on exposure to cumin oil was 20, 180 and 90 min for E. coli, S. aureus and L. monocytogenes, respectively (Gachkar et al., 2007).

Cephalosporins have been classified as first, second or third generation, largely on the basis of bacterial susceptibility patterns and resistance to p-lactamases (Figure 30.8). [Note They are ineffective against methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA), Listeria monocytogenes. Clostridium diffidle and the enterococci.]...

Limonene enantiomers activities were investigated on 25 different bacterial species. The results indicate that the (+) limonene was more active than the (-)-limonene. The (+)-limonene was active against the total of 22 species, whereas the (-)-enantiomer displayed activity only against 16 species [78]. Investigations into the activity of limonene enantiomers in relation to 20 laboratory strains of Listeria monocytogenes isolated from different foodstuffs were also carried out.
