After centrifugation at 1,250 g for 5 min, supernatants were transferred for incubation into 25 cm2 cell culture flasks with 7.6 ml IMDM and 0.4 ml antibi- otics dissolved in IMDM (vancomycin 100 μ g/ml, streptomycin 100 μ g/ml, kanamycin 100 μ g/ml, ...
Vancomycin is an antibiotic used to treat cases of Clostridium difficile (C. Diff) and staphylococcal enterocolitis, both of which are intestinal infections that cause diarrhea. The most common side effects associated with oral vancomycin treatment are nausea, stomach pain, and low potassium levels in...
