Abstract:
ObjectiveTo establish a comprehensive evaluation method on sensitivity of Yersinia pestis to different antibiotics, then use the method to evaluate the sensitivity of Yersinia pestis to 6 antibiotics. Methods Through literature review, related articles were consulted and sensitivity testing data to antibiotics were collected,and the sensitivity of Yersinia pestis to the 6 antibiotics was assessed with analytic hierarchy process. The sensitivity of Yersinia pestis to the 6 antibiotics(Cefotaxime penicillin, Ampicillin, Cefazolin, Ciprofloxacin, Ciprofloxacin Buddha's, and Streptomycin) was evaluated comprehensively with analytic hierarchy process from the antibacterial situation of the antibiotics to Yersinia pestis of 141 strains of virulent, attenuated EV76paris strains and isolates of the bacteria of Yunnan. Results The evaluation showed that the sensitivity of Yersinia pestis to antibiotics was different. The rank of the sensitivity of Yersinia pestis to the 6 antibiotics was: Ceftazidime, Ampicillin, Cefazolin,Ciprofloxacin, Norfloxacin and Streptomycin. Composite score index were 1.730 77, 1.631 77, 1.581 95, 1.567 80,1.449 48, and 0.999 99, respectively. Conclusions Analytic hierarchy process evaluation can be a reasonable,objective and more accurate evaluation on the sensitivity of Yersinia pestis to different antibiotics. This method could provide some references for screening feasible pharmaceuticals against plague.
